Welcome to the ManKind Project's New Warrior Training Adventure (NWTA).
The NWTA is a modern-day hero’s journey and rite of passage. It is an intensive 2-day immersion for men who are ready to take an honest look at the life they have created, face what may be holding them back, and step more fully into a mature, grounded, and purposeful masculinity.
Before registering for the ManKind Project New Warrior Training Adventure (NWTA), it is important to reflect on these questions:
1. Are you doing this for you?
The NWTA is for men who are committed to bettering their lives, healing at depth, building brotherhood, and showing up in authentic service. Only you can make that commitment. You may feel apprehension or fear. That is natural. Often it means something important is calling.
2. Are you ready to challenge yourself?
The NWTA is a Hero’s Journey - an initiation into the mature masculine. A man on this journey is invited to face difficult truths about himself. He chooses to meet those challenges rather than turn away. This is an intense and demanding experience. It asks for courage, honesty, and commitment.
3. Are you committed to your personal growth for the long term?
This training can open the door to deep and lasting growth. Integrating what you discover will take time, courage, and ongoing practice. Your growth as a man is not a one-off event - it is a lifelong path. The ManKind Project hopes you will commit to that path.
