Adulthood Initiation Rites were found throughout nearly every ancestral and indigenous culture across this planet – which is how the culture continued to stay healthy, generative and life-serving. In a modern world, shadow runs rampant while new-age spirituality only points us to love and light. What about a spirituality that brings us into the dark?


How can we craft rites-of-passage containers that can support us to transform our wounds into gifts and bring our own unique medicine to life? Join School co-founders John Wolfstone and Ian Mackenzie as they unpack their own reclamation of initiatory rites and how modern humans may begin to approach this most ancient of mysteries.
