Level 1: Warrior, Shadow, Magician: 3 Steps to Mastery - $195- Enroll
Warrior, Shadow, Magician is a one-day overview intensive workshop that will teach you the fundamentals of a pathway that will takes you on a journey through three worlds.
First: “Awaken your Warrior,” and learn about the right of self-protection through the use of Martial Arts and energy work. It is your inner Warrior that navigates your reality, re-negotiates old trauma, heals the past and brings you safely into the present. The Warrior heals self-doubt and develops self-trust. It is the energy of the Warrior that connects us to the physical world.
Second: “Stalk your Shadow” and learn about the right of self-expression. When you Stalk your Shadow you use the energy of the Warrior to reclaim the lost, abandoned and disowned parts to arrive at your authentic self in full access of your personal power. Shadow work is about self-awareness, self-acceptance and creative expression. Through this new personal power, learn to connect with each other.
Third: “Meet your Magician” and learn about the right of self-empowerment. The Magician is the bridge between the material and spiritual worlds, between the known and the unknown. The Magician teaches us about manifestation, transformation and self-creation. The Magician gives us back our sense of wonder, our sense of humor and connects us to the Divine. You will learn to manifest the life you envision through being fully integrated and congruent.
Level 2: Awakening the Warrior Within - $295- Enroll
A Rite of Passage in Self Protection and Self Awareness
Awakening the Warrior Within is a one-day intensive workshop that focuses on the development of your inner Warrior. The workshop is available only to graduates of Level One: Warrior, Shadow, Magician. This program is an intensive life-skill building program that focuses on accessing the Warrior’s qualities, such as strength, courage, service and commitment, and allows us to transform the conditions in our lives that need changing.
Awakening the Warrior Within empowers participants to break through barriers, old habits, limiting beliefs and unconscious patterns that stop them from reaching their personal and professional goals. The training culminates in a realistic combat experience that serves as a Warrior’s rite of passage and offers a profound and unforgettable experience of your inner Warrior.
Participants learn an effective and comprehensive self-defense system that teaches them how to disarm an attack, define boundaries, read intent, trust their instincts, overcome fear and act with 100% commitment. Throughout the workshop you learn simple and effective techniques that enable you to understand your Warrior’s qualities and maximize your potential as a human being.
Level 3: Stalking the Shadow - $495- Enroll
Stalking the Shadow is offered to graduates of Warrior, Shadow, Magician, and Awakening the Warrior Within.
Stalking the Shadow is the next step in our journey to mastery and enables you to use your Warrior’s skills to reclaim lost or disowned parts of yourself. The term “Shadow” refers to the feared, abandoned or neglected parts of our personality; the parts we are least willing to see or acknowledge including our strengths, talents, huge amounts of our life force, our passion and personal power. Every human being has a Shadow, and although many try to hide or deny that it exists, the Shadow cannot be ignored. To become a whole and autonomous human being, it is essential that we face our Shadow. We Stalk our Shadow to become whole again, to regain our authentic selves and to find our voice in the world. Until we do, our Shadow stalks us.
Stalking the Shadow calls forth the Warrior’s life-enhancing qualities of courage, compassion and commitment to confront the Shadow and bring it into the light of our consciousness. A major focus in the workshop is a unique combination of awareness exercises and communications skills used to identify how the Shadow operates in our lives. The workshop works extensively with the language of symbols and film to gain insight and recognize the Shadow and Warrior dynamic.
The self-defense component includes techniques in defense against weapons (knives and guns.) In the same way that Shadow work is the next level after Warrior work, defense against weapons is the next level up, from defense against an unarmed single attacker.
Level 4: Meeting the Magician - $595- Enroll
Meeting the Magician is available to graduates of Warrior, Shadow, Magician, Awakening the Warrior Within, and Stalking the Shadow.
Meeting the Magician is about creating the life, the world and the future we want. The Magician teaches us about manifestation and transformation. The Magician program is the bridge between the material and spiritual realms, physical plane reality and non-physical plane reality, ordinary and non-ordinary states of consciousness, between the known and the unknown. It is the Magician that connects us to Spirit, gives us back our sense of wonder and our sense of humor. The work of the Magician is about self-creation. As Warriors we have learned to take responsibility for our world, in Shadow work we have begun to see the effects of our unconscious creation, the Magician teaches us how to create consciously.
This seminar is a 2-1/2 day residential workshop held in a private and peaceful country setting.

Level 1: "Rewriting Your Karma" - co-facilitated by Dawn Callan and Hal Zina Bennett, a Master teacher, author and Heyoka. “Re-writing Your Karma” is the process of finding your true destiny.
Level 2: This is “Walk Your Talk” weekend. This weekend is the challenge to take what you know out into the world and make a difference. To choose the Warrior’s path is to choose a life of truth and a path of service. This is where you demonstrate it.
Level 3: “Vision Quest.” This weekend will be spent entirely out on Grandmother Earth. The focus of the weekend will be to call in your vision, or your dream, and will culminate in a Vision Quest. The purpose of a Vision Quest is to ask Spirit to deliver your vision or your mission to you, or to direct you on the next step on your mission. The weekend will be co-facilitated by Native American Medicine Teachers.
Each weekend includes a physical challenge designed to push the edge of your courage.
With each successive workshop your vision of reality gets altered. You become clearer, more focused and more engaged with your life-purpose. You expect more from yourself and your world, and you get it. You explore the possibilities of power when your Spirit is in charge.
