Men’s Retreats in Atlantic Canada
Real work with men who get it.
2026 RETREAT DATES NOW AVAILABLE
Here's What You Know
You've built the career. The income. The life that looks good on paper.
But something's off.
You're going through the motions at home. Your wife says you're "distant." Your kids get your leftover energy. You know you're capable of more, but you can't seem to shift the patterns alone.
You've tried podcasts, books, maybe therapy. Insights don't stick. Motivation fades. You're back to default mode within a week.
This retreat is different. It's not about inspiration, it's about integration. Four days with other men doing the same work.
Why Men Come
Most guys who register have been thinking about it for 6-12 months. They've read the testimonials. They know the work matters.
What finally gets them to commit? Realizing that waiting doesn't make it easier, it just makes it later.
Your relationship doesn't improve on its own. Your kids don't stay young. The patterns don't break themselves.
If this is speaking to you, trust that. The men who show up are always glad they did.
Why This Works
This retreat works because it's:
Immersive
Four days away from distractions. Deep work, no noise.
Practical
No gurus, no theatrics, no performance. Just honest work with real men.
Supported
Integration support, private community, and lasting brotherhood included.
Expert-Led
Experienced facilitators, safe container, proven process for real change.
Therapy helped you understand the past—but didn't give you tools for the present.
Self-help gave you insights—but they didn't translate to action.
Working harder earned you success—but not fulfillment.
This is different because you're not doing it alone, and you're not leaving it behind after four days.
What Actually Changes
This isn't about becoming a different person. It's about becoming more yourself.
Men who do this work report:
A clearer sense of what actually matters to them
Ability to be present without constantly managing
Better conversations at home (their partners notice first)
Less reactive under pressure
Genuine male friendships for the first time in years
The real shift? You stop performing your way through life and start living from what's actually true for you.
That changes everything, but it starts with four days of doing the work.
The Work
What Happens During the Retreat
Four days of focused work:
To release what you're carrying and help you regulate
Breathwork
To get out of your head and into your body
Movement Practices
Honest Conversations
About what's actually happening in your life
That reveals patterns you can't see alone
Confrontation
Being seen fully without having to perform
Brotherhood
You'll leave with clarity on what's next and support to make it stick.
After the Retreat:
Integration call to anchor your breakthroughs
Private community with your retreat brothers
Three months free access to The Brothrhood (ongoing accountability so changes stick)
Everything is designed around one question: How do you take this work home?
Is This Retreat Right For You?
This works for men who:
Are tired of just consuming content and ready to do the work
Know accountability is what's missing, not more information
Want real conversations with other men, not just networking
Are willing to be uncomfortable to get unstuck
This isn't right for you if:
You're looking for a relaxing weekend getaway
You want quick fixes without effort
You're not open to being challenged
You prefer staying comfortable over growing
Bottom line: If you're reading this and something's resonating, that's your answer.

What Men Are Saying

"This retreat gave me clarity on my purpose and helped me address the blocks holding me back. I connected deeply with men I now call brothers—a safe space where vulnerability allowed deep wounds to surface and heal. Facing my past trauma has helped me accept myself and others more fully. I'm not alone on this journey anymore; these brothers have become my chosen family."

I arrived carrying the weight of trying to control everything—it was consuming me. This retreat helped me release deep anger from childhood and rediscover what authentic masculinity really means. It gave me a safe space to be real and the tools to carry that authenticity into my daily life. If you're ready to challenge society's false narrative about what it means to be a man, this is your opportunity."
- Emmanuel Godbout-Theriault

"I came seeking brotherhood and left with so much more. The retreat gave me a safe space to confront anger I didn't even know I carried. This experience didn't just change my life—it brought my wife and me closer after years of hurt and disconnection. I learned I don't have to face life's challenges alone. Knowing there are other heart-centered men ready to support each other has been transformative."
- Mike Borgh

"I've attended many retreats, but this was the most intense and transformative. We went deep into unconscious beliefs and childhood traumas, and I realized something powerful: I needed these men as much as they needed me. Stu's ability to hold space was unmatched. As he says, 'A man with a regulated nervous system is a safe man.' This retreat is about brotherhood, accountability, and becoming the man you want to be."

"I sent my husband to this retreat as a birthday gift—a chance to unplug and reconnect with himself. The man who came home was different. He carries himself with a strength and presence that's shifted our entire family dynamic. I'm sinking deeper into my feminine because he has returned fully to his masculine. This is the ultimate gift for any man who rarely makes space for himself."
- Kasia Flanagan (words from a wife)

"This retreat cuts through the noise. No complex beliefs or spiritual concepts—just the powerful truth of being a man. The somatic approach and deep understanding of the nervous system allowed me to trust completely. What moved me most was the simplicity: YOU ARE A MAN. And that's enough to create life-changing outcomes. Stu and Riley have created something truly profound."
