HOSTS › ACADEMY

From an idea to a thriving part of your business.

A retreat that is clearly yours, priced to last and planned down to the last morning.

SEE THE TRACKSNOT SURE YET? I RUN A VENUE

A retreat you can explain

What it is, who it's for and why it matters, brought down to one compelling sentence.

A price you can build on

Built up from financial break-even yo what you need to build a sustainable business.

A plan you can hand over

To a venue, a collaborator or the people you invite. Detailed and repeatable.

WHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH 

    1. A retreat is a transition, not an event

    2. The arc your participants actually travel

    3. Design the energy before you design the content

    You leave with a clear shape for your retreat, on one page

    4. The venue is a participant
    5. Who is in the room

    6. Before, during, after, and the moments people repeat

    6 STEPS · ESSENTIAL TRACK

    1. You need fewer people than you think

    2. The story you are telling

    3. The one sentence that does the work

    You leave with a price, a story and proof that people want it.

    4. Price to the outcome, not the cost
    5. Find out if anyone wants it before you spend anything

    6. How it spreads

    6 STEPS · ESSENTIAL TRACK

    4. Silence that erodes trust
    5. Name the risks

    ​

    3. What bonds a group

    4. Thresholds, and the endings people arrive in

    6. Presence over performance

    You leave with a way of holding the room that is your own.

    7. Reading the room
    8. Silence, and letting things digest

    9. The toolkit

    10. The debrief

    11. Looking after yourself

    11 STEPS · FULL TRACK

    You leave with your Blueprint: one document you can hand to a venue, a collaborator or a future participant.

    4. The community, and the longer horizon
    5. The Blueprint
    6. Finding out what worked

    5 STEPS · FULL TRACK

    1. What actually breaks when you grow

    2. Bigger, more often, or more expensive

    3. Marketing to people who have never met you

    You leave with  clear growth decisions, including the choice to stay as you are.

    4. The first person you hire, and what you stop doing
    5. When this stops being a course-shaped problem

CHOOSE YOUR TRACK

Two tracks. Do-It-Yourself, at your pace

Start where you are. Both tracks give you a solid foundation. The Full track adds depth, live sessions and a complete retreat blueprint.

"I came in knowing I wanted to run a retreat but with no idea where to start. By the end of the Essential track I had a concept, a price point and a list of 30 people I was going to invite. That was the first actual concrete step I neeeded."

WHAT STUDENTS SAY

"The coursework gave me things I did not know I needed. The energy arc, the facilitation frameworks, the way you think about the last morning. I ran my first retreat three months later and it went exactly as I had designed it."

Tomás

Leadership Coach

"Most retreat hosts struggle not because they lack talent, but because they were never taught the mechanics."
