THE DEEP MASCULINE
An invitation for men...
You're likely no stranger to the pressure to conform to societal expectations of masculinity. But deep down, you know that there's more to being a man than just putting on a tough exterior or trying to live up to someone else's ideals.
You're craving something more authentic, more meaningful, and more connected.
Maybe you've found yourself struggling in your relationships, feeling like you're just going through the motions or unable to truly connect with your partner. Or perhaps you've been using addictions or distractions as a way to numb the sense emptiness that's been growing inside of you.
But there's a deeper part of you is not seeking surface-level solutions or quick fixes.Â
You're driven by a desire to do the work of your soul - to confront the parts of yourself that are holding you back, and to unlock your full potential as a man.
You're willing to dive into the depths of your own psyche, to face your fears and insecurities head-on, and to explore what lies in the shadows.
You're ready to let go of the old patterns and conditioning that have been holding you back, and to step into a new way of being - one that is authentic, empowered, and deeply connected.
Then this journey may be for you…
The Deep Masculine is a comprehensive 12 week online training for men that weaves elements of mythology, archetypes, somatic practices & ritual for a powerfully transformative experience.

Why other programs may not
have worked for you...
If you've walked the path of personal growth or men's work before, you may have found that your experiences fell short of delivering the depth and transformation you sought.
Often, these programs rely on outdated models of masculinity that try to fit you into a predetermined mold, neglecting the unique complexities of your experience as a man.
They may also overlook the rich mythological and symbolic dimensions of human experience, ignoring the timeless wisdom of mythology and fairy tales that can guide us deeper into our own psyches. And when it comes to integrating intellectual understanding with somatic practices, many programs come up short, leaving us with theoretical concepts that remain ungrounded in our bodies.
But perhaps the greatest omission is the avoidance of the forbidden topic of sexuality and eros.
It's here, in this often-taboo terrain, that we find the key to unlocking our deepest shadow material and integrating our fragmented psyche. By embracing our erotic nature, we can access our full potential as men.
The Deep Masculine program combines intellectual insights with powerful somatic practices like breathwork and self-inquiry, guiding you on a journey of discovery that's both deeply personal and profoundly transformative.
And with a global brotherhood of like-minded men supporting you every step of the way, you'll find the courage to confront your shadows, integrate your psyche, and emerge as a more whole, more alive version of yourself.

Testimonials:
“It was very satisfying and beneficial to connect with men from around the world who struggle with the same kind of issues that challenge me. The universality of the experience was the most striking and impactful aspect of the program. It emphasized for me that I am not alone and that all men have complex inner lives and want to live in ways that are a contribution to those around them.”

The content is rich, and Ian and Deus have masterfully created a course that blends self-discovery, sharing and connecting with other men in a strong a supportive container, and understanding underlying archetypes and mythologies that go beyond the personal. Through the 12 weeks, I found healing, built intimacy, and gained new perspectives that is supporting a fuller life, deeper gratitude, and a reverence and appreciation for the beauty and pleasures of life and the earth.”

"I was nervous and not comfortable joining a mens group prior to my experience with the Deep Masculine. I stepped in the discomfort and was met with love, care, connection, and wisdom. Thank you Ian and Deus for creating an offering that was safe, open and welcoming. The Deep Masculine is a powerful container to create more positive male leadership role models! Deeply grateful!"
- JONATHAN
 "The Deep Masculine program has been transformative. Eros, once just an idea, became a living reality that guides my life. I've noticed profound shifts: increased life force, diminished fear, and a beautiful balance between pleasure and discomfort. I've moved from pain and suffering to gratitude, embracing my true potential. My understanding of sexuality has also shifted, becoming transparent and connected to something greater than myself. I feel excitement and enjoyment that's unapologetic and authentic, rooted in a deeper sense of purpose and connection."
- GIOTTO
"Under Ian and Deus’s guidance during the transformative 12-week Deep Masculine program, I journeyed into the depths of my being, unearthing and reclaiming parts of myself that had long been neglected or buried. Unlike other experiences I’ve had, this program provided a uniquely gentle yet powerful framework that didn’t just unveil these hidden aspects but guided me toward fully accepting and integrating them into my life. The profound psychic shift I experienced was one that I will never take for granted. I’m profoundly grateful for this container and wholeheartedly believe that any man ready to embrace true transformation would find immeasurable value in the Deep Masculine program."
