What Awaits You In Matador
This isn’t about escape—it’s about engagement: with yourself, your story, and a circle of men who get it.
Brotherhood in the Wild
Step into a circle of men ready for honest conversation and deep connection.
Guided Story Work
Move from wounded to warrior through reflection, teaching, and practices you can carry home.
Rest + Renewal
Comfortable lodging and nourishing meals provided on site.
Not a Conference. Not a Vacation. A Rite of Passage.

This retreat is for men who are ready to do real work—the kind that doesn’t happen behind screens or in comfort zones. At The Matador, you’ll trade distraction for firelight, noise for silence, and routine for something raw and real.
It’s not about fixing yourself. It’s about remembering who you are—a man with purpose, strength, and a story worth owning.
Only ten men will make this journey together, ensuring depth, brotherhood, and space to breathe.

Are You One of the Ten?
This isn’t for everyone. It’s for men ready to get honest, dig deep, and step into something real. Ten men. One fire. One weekend to lay down the noise and remember what matters.
If you feel that pull — that edge between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming — this is your moment to step in.
