4-Day In-Person Men’s Immersion.
WORKING DEEP RETREAT
Clarify your Intention. Ignite your Vitality. Return to Depth.
OCT 23 - 26, 2025
Ananda Ashram - Monroe, NY
Limited to 20 Men.
This October, Speed is hosting an intimate in-person immersion in the Hudson River Valley.
Expect a container with both directness and compassion, challenge and unwavering support.
You will be pushed. You will be held.
You will come home freer, clearer and more alive.
“Most men I know are doing their level best to be good men in the world. And in the ‘rush of everything to waste’ as Robert Frost put it, we can lose the ‘power of standing still’ — of feeling our hearts, and the sharp clarity of deeper knowing.
A well-held embodied men’s retreat breaks through the blockages faster than any other modality I know. Come bring your ache, your frustration, your confusion — and your willingness to leave behind that which no longer serves you.
We will support each other — and challenge each other fiercely. You will leave transformed.”
— Speed
Through his online offerings 108 Minutes and 108 Days, Speed Weed has led hundreds of men to deeper knowing of their hearts and more grounded trust in themselves and the world; and he has led men in-person as an EMLT Program Assistant and Teacher Trainer on over a dozen in-person retreats for John Wineland.
This is a unique opportunity to work in-person, directly with Speed.

No. This is a deep-dive, experiential retreat focused on personal growth, presence, and embodiment. It is not a substitute for clinical therapy. We believe in the power of this work as a profound complement to therapy, but it is not a therapeutic intervention.

Accommodations are simple and designed to foster connection. You will be staying in shared rooms with other men.

Due to the intimate nature of this event and the commitments required, all payments are non-refundable. Please ensure you are fully committed before securing your spot.
