Wisdom of the Pack

Wisdom of the Pack is an immersive series designed for young boys who are ready to explore their inner worlds as they transition into manhood. Over the course of 6 sessions, participants will learn how to foster meaningful and supportive relationships with their peers, develop an understanding of the healthy and healed masculine, have a greater sense of who they are as a developing young man and master the power of their inner emotional world.

This series is for all boys who have been desiring to feel more confident, connected, and clear on who they are internally and in community. By the end of these sessions, participants will be able to reflect on their journey into manhood, identify and embody values associated with brotherhood and community, utilize practices for self discovery and healthy masculinity, and foster meaningful and supportive connections with peers.

Wisdom of the Pack will meet each week on Wednesdays from 3:00-4:30pm for 6 weeks at True Nature in the Kiva.
