Men’s Dojo – Eli Buren

THE DOJO OF AWARENESS
MEN'S ONLINE PRACTICE SERIES

Three Month Dojo

October 13 – December 29

11-1PM PST / 20-22 CET

The Dojo engages Eli's 20+ years of experience working with men and will cover a wide spectrum of teaching, training, and practices. From weekly instruction and assignments to learning potent martial forms, depth meditations, and other embodied presence practices that develop a man's capacity to meet the world and his own life with cultivated strength, sensitivity, openness and depth.

The Dojo is not an outward fix or yet another to-do task along the elusive path to “ultimate success”. The Dojo is an inside orientation towards dynamic engagement and fine-tuned presence with each moment.

The Dojo is a place to cultivate a clear, grounded, and open attitude with which we meet the ever-changing, challenging, and beautiful circumstances of life.

We will train in martial and medical styles of practice while considering the spiritual, relational, elemental, and philosophical meanings alive in the forms. You will build a clear bridge between the root of these practices and how on a daily basis they serve your health, awareness, sexual potency, life purpose, well-being, and overall cultivation of Qi.

The Dojo holds space for questions on personal practice, relational dynamics, and purpose while prioritizing the bridge into real-time embodied movement, awareness, and meaning.

In addition to the forms you will be learning, each week Eli lead's a partnered break out room practice to deepen trust, connection, reflection, and accountability within the group.

The Dojo is a practice community to support you wherever you are—out in the countryside or in the middle of a bustling city—men often continue practicing and deepening friendships for months and years after the group has ended.

In The Dojo:

Cultivate the potency of your presence and the natural confidence of your embodiment.
Learn powerful qigong and martial art forms that anchor clarity, reverence, and honor into the NOW of your body.
Receive structure and training to begin or deepen your daily practice.
Gain clarity about polarity and sexual dynamics, while cultivating your own most essential essence first, as a core practice, whether in a relationship or single.
Enter a practice tradition that will be a benchmark and resource for the rest of your life.
Explore the distinctions between Yang-style power, precision, and discipline practices vs Yin-style nourishment, devotion, and surrender practices.
Be served by the consistency of weekly practices and accountability of a core partner.
Have space to ask questions about challenges you're facing, then bring the answers into embodied practices that hold trustable structure in your life.
Train the depth, pace, and quality of your breath. Learning ways to increase vitality, reduce stress, and participate more fully with the great cycle of breath that sustains you.

Dojo is a private group. In a marketplace of “on-demand” pre-recorded programs, Eli holds a rare gauntlet of real-time practice. Participation in each session is strongly recommended, however recordings (minus break-out room practices and select forms) will be provided upon request.

I look forward to meeting you in practice, in the Dojo.
With a deep bow of respect,
Eli Buren
