Some thresholds in life can’t be met in a group. They demand a private space. A sacred container. A journey tailored only to you.
You don’t need another retreat.
You need a rite of passage tailored to your life and your moment.
I private rites of passage is about letting go of who you’ve been, and stepping into who you’re becoming.
Your private rite may include:
To clarify your threshold, build safety, and set the container.
Time in nature, fasting, or solitude to meet yourself beyond distractions.
Fire, psychedelic medicine work (if aligned), or symbolic acts of release and renewal.
To translate the experience into daily life, leadership, and relationships.
Timeless work, adapted for the modern man.
A private rite of passage is ideal if you:
Every rite of passage is unique, but the structure often follows three phases:
3–4 private sessions (online or in-person) to clarify your intention, prepare your body and mind, and create a safe emotional container.
A fully tailored 2–5 day immersion in Portugal or abroad. This may include wilderness survival, solitude, ceremony, or medicine work (psilocybin, San Pedro, or MDMA if aligned and legal). Co-facilitated by Martin and, when relevant, Beáta or other experienced guides.
Follow-up sessions to anchor the insights into daily life. Tools for embodiment, leadership, and relationships so the rite of passage becomes a lived transformation, not just an experience.
I only work with a limited number of men each year to ensure depth and quality.
“I joined because of the work I’d done online with Arun and wanted to see what could happen in person. Despite life’s demands and feeling ‘all in’ at the last minute, I found a powerful connection with Arun, Martin, and every single man there. I’ve never cried so openly or felt such love in just a few days. The clarity, vision, and emotional release I experienced were beyond anything I imagined. I return to normal life now checking in with my feelings, facing challenges with more compassion and love. I’m equipped with tools for a new journey ahead. Thank you, Arun, Martin, and everyone involved—for helping me surrender and discover a deeper part of myself.”
“I felt a calling but wasn’t sure what to expect. I arrived ready to surrender, forgive, and trust my inner feeling. I learned so much about facing fear, sadness, anger, and joy. I gained tools to take on anything life throws at me. My heart is full of love for every man I met there. Keep showing up!”
“Before the retreat, I felt disconnected and doubted a short experience could really change me. But it was life-changing. I came home and finally opened up to my parents about my struggles. We went from no affection to daily hugs and meaningful meals. I shared my truth with my girlfriend, and it brought us closer than ever. This was the most profound investment I’ve ever made in myself. I left more authentic, open, and capable of forming deeper connections. I’m so grateful I took that leap.”
“It was a magical weekend. Coming home, I spoke openly with my partner, and we laughed, cried, and loved like never before. I feel so clear now—about my family, my projects, and my purpose in this world. Arun and Martin turned sand into gold, showing me the magic in all of us. Strangers became brothers beyond nationality, color, or status. Love truly is in everyone. I’m already planning trips with my family, feeling their eagerness too. I can’t wait to see how this unfolds and to share these stories again around a campfire. Speaking from the heart, with profound love.”
“I arrived without expectations, just a desire to open my heart. I connected with my buried emotions and learned to speak my truth. Arun and Martin created a safe space that allowed me to trust, let go, and see my life through fresh eyes. I feel more honest with myself and more in touch with my emotions than ever before.”
“I attended another retreat before with Arun and it changed my life, so I came here wanting more access to my feelings and deeper connections. I worried it wouldn’t live up to my high expectations, but it truly expanded how I relate to others. I learned to express my feelings openly, realised how people appreciate me, and decided to focus on my inner world instead of constantly seeking external solutions. Now I’m more open, more relaxed, and more willing to reach out to others, even strangers. This retreat built on my previous growth and revealed how far I’ve come—and how much further I’m willing to go.”
“I’d never done a men’s retreat before and felt drawn to Martin’s energy, so I took the leap. What I found were deeply rooted emotions still living in my body, and old traumas I thought were healed. I gained powerful tools and made big decisions I’d been avoiding. Surrounded by men who allowed themselves to feel, I felt safe to do the same. This experience solidified my resolve to speak my truth, to help others find their courage to feel, and to let my anger rise with purpose.”
If you feel the call, don’t ignore it.

Adolescence is one of life’s most powerful thresholds, and in today’s world, most young men cross it without guidance, ritual, or support.
We also offer tailored rites of passage for teenagers, helping them move from boyhood into responsible, grounded manhood, supported by community, nature, and ceremony.

“I sought to break free from limiting beliefs and get more in touch with my feelings. Martin’s grounded energy and supportive approach made me feel safe to explore. The journey provided clarity on my values, helped me improve communication with my partner, and brought a sense of love and oneness.
