MALE FIRE: A MAN'S INNATE LIFE FORCE, HIS SOURCE OF POWER, HIS INNER FLAME.
Untended, male fire can become like wildfire— raging out of control and often destroying what is in its path. Or, it can dwindle down into weak flames and embers, eventually burning out. Well-tended, however, a man's fire can be a source of strength, solidity, creativity and light for himself, his family, friends, and community.

Tending Male Fire is a four day and three night wilderness retreat for men only. We'll dive deeply into three critical aspects of male fire and healthy masculinity: Anger, Grief, and Power. In a strong, supportive circle of brothers, you'll experience the healthy release of anger; anger, which so often covers the softer emotions beneath. You’ll learn the tools of grief-tending and feel the relief of its release. Feeling freer with these weights off your shoulders, you’ll receive guidance and support to better know your power and its healthy manifestation in the world.

This retreat weekend is facilitated by skilled guides, Booster Blake and Rob Miller, along with experienced support staff. Ibrahim Sory Sylla, spectacular drummer and acrobat from Guinea, will play drums for the ceremonies as well as lead movement for men. Tending Male Fire will take place at the Baldy Creek Wilderness Camp near Buckhorn Springs, outside of Ashland, OR. Delicious, organic breakfasts and dinners and on site camping are included. Participants must be self-sufficient with camping gear. They may alternatively acquire separate accommodation in the Ashland area at their own expense.
