Basecamp

A Somatic Journey Home

Basecamp is a three-day retreat for gay men who want to return to the body, quiet the mind, and reconnect with a deeper truth. Each weekend is designed around the needs of the group, offering a retreat experience that is both personal and spacious. In the high desert, we step out of our familiar patterns and into a steady, grounded environment shaped by somatic practice, meditation, and authentic connection.

My Basecamps are not just an event or getaway.
Together, we build a lineage of practice — grounded in the body and carried forward with wisdom and an open heart..
