Men's circle

"This men's warmth...it's like....it's like the glow in the firewood".

                 

"I'm so grateful for this space of authenticity, which is a rare thing."

 

             - Men's circle participants at the end of the closing circle.

 

Together we create a space for each man to take his place and share his experiences; from a genuine desire to grow and inspire one another. We often work with a specific theme, but we also go with whatever else comes alive in the group during the circle. The circle helps you to step out of your daily routine, and to explore your views and choices in connection with others, sometimes in depth, sometimes humorously and playful. 

 

Sharing experiences and listening to others already amounts to a lot. But besides sharings we will also do meditative and physical exercises to further integrate some of the insights attained in the circle, and to connect the head to the heart and body.

 

The circles are likely to be in English. When there is no need for that, we'll stick to Dutch.

You're most welcome to participate. Apply by sending an e-mail to mannencirkelnoord@gmail.com

 

The men's circle will have you remember (or discover) how every man is a brother who roams around in the very same field that we call life, often with similar questions, goals and challenges. What can we learn from each other? How can we tap into our shared wisdom and support each other, even as complete strangers only meeting for the duration of one single men's circle?

Julien Oomen 

I’m a trainer & coach and as a musician I also co-facilitate spiritual ceremonies and trainings on personal leadership initiated by peers. Through this work and through the men's circles, my heart has opened up more and more to everything a man is: The son we are, the father, brother, friend, lover, as well as the relationship with ourselves. My driving force for the men’s circle is to honour and manifest the shared wisdom in every group of men, regardless of its composition or moment in time.

My longest collaboration outside of my own men's circle is with Ralph Nelissen (Pad van de man). For eight years I've been co-facilitating Ralph's adventurous men's work during his men's year program and intensive retreats.

I'm also available for individual coaching. Not just for men. Read about my coaching method here.
