As men in this society we often grow up getting told we have to be tough, to suck it up, to 'not be a pussy'. This teaches us that as men we can't share our emotions, and that we have to do it all alone.
Men's work is here to change that. To create spaces where likeminded men can safely share their struggles, get to know themselves, have fun, and step fully into life.

"Last time I was at a gathering with Lars, I felt instantly at ease and at peace. He has a unique grounded presence to hold space and facilitate groups effortlessly. He holds a rich wisdom and embodied authenticity, few others possess. I’m truly grateful to know and learn from him."
Kevin
Business owner
"For me it was a new experience to get to know a man/facilitator like Lars. The peace, the authenticity and the purity that he radiates is something that I try to take with me every day in life. Lars is a very committed person who takes you to a deeper level of connection."
Jeroen
Breathwork coach
"Last year, I discovered the true power of men's work through Lars. In the safe space he created within our group, I felt able to open up and share my deepest fears and worries. This transformative journey helped me grow as a father, husband, and brother. For that, I am forever grateful to Lars."
Rick
Outdoor enthusiast
"The Deep Dive came into my life in the perfect moment. Sharing and connecting with other men, in brotherhood and facilitated on a professional level. With his calmness Lars creates a space in which I feel invited to be truly present. At the same time, he knows how to put his finger on my sore spots and he does not hesitate to hold up a mirror so that I can develop myself better.”
Edo
ADD coach
"Wow, what an amazing journey this was! Really felt like coming home. With a group of men, REALLY looking at what is going on in my and other men's lives. And by going through various themes, you can really feel it and take decisive action. I wish this for everyone!"

My journey into men's work started with the Amsterdam-based The Gathering of Men, where I felt at home right away. Finally a space where all men are honest, supportive and driven to be a better man. A feeling of belonging hit me, and 'the work' has never left me since.
Over the course of a few years, men's work played a big part of shaping me into the man I am today. I've become stronger. More confident. At ease with myself, my emotions and whatever life throws at me. A more present and loving partner, and a man of my word. I am now dedicated to facilitating these gatherings for other men so they can have a similar experience and become their stronger, more authentic self.
