The weekend I did my MASTERY I can safely say was the most playful, exhilarating, exciting, challenging weekend in my entire adult life. It is clear to me that I stretched my boundaries regarding self-expression, participation, playfulness and my ability and willingness to create. My participation, as it is a very participatory weekend, is the reason for its lasting effect on my life."

I have been seen, and not only accepted, but honoured and acknowledged. A part of me, which has always waited in quiet desperation, at last has had a long, deep drink of life itself."

Tom Gamet

For me, the MASTERY was an incredible, amazing, intense, passionate, fun, crazy, emotional, enlivening and inspiring weekend. It was also a place of safety, where I could look inside to see who I was, where I was, and to release some self imposed blocks to expression and freedom… I believe it gave me valuable tools to work with every day… it gave me permission to move forward, to consciously choose more for my life."

I reconnected with two things I felt were slipping away - my power and my voice. I felt what it was like to express outwardly and be heard. Some moments were really challenging; all of it was rewarding. I'll always be able to draw from the experience and the things I learned through the MASTERY. It's one of the best things I've ever done for myself."

Larry Gilman, the leader, is perhaps the most amazing person I have ever met. His leadership skills, his warmth, compassion, humour and energy are truly incredible… The big, unexpected bonus is a very positive change in my attitude to life, my friends, and my family. I do truly feel more alive and considerably younger than I did prior to The MASTERY. To me, the December MASTERY workshop was the best Christmas present ever."

Jim Porter

It is difficult to convey the incredible impact this has had on all aspects of my life. The clarity in my relationships is ASTOUNDING! I marvel daily at the positivism which pervades my interactions with others. I am committed to truly nurturing myself, saying "no" to activities and requests which could overload my day. Life is just as full, but so much more compassionate and pleasurable. AND… my "problem" corporate contacts who were roadblocks are showing up differently - there's a measurable improvement with increased revenues and on my bottom line.

A critical element of the MASTERY is its on-going support network which keeps the weekend's experience alive, rather than slowly slipping away with the stress of everyday life. These diverse, intelligent individuals continually empower me to discover new sources of personal and professional enrichment and I in turn do the same for them."

"The MASTERY is the most mind blowingly effective catalyst. It has brought together all the personal development work I have done over the last five years! It is the pencil sharpener to the pencil; the Master Chef to the preparation of food; the focus to a telescope! My life today is so drastically different from before the MASTERY… peace, serenity, the ability to accept and let go, enabling me to move forward… to move with Olympic focus and energy!"

"The MASTERY is a spiritually orgasmic experience that left me completely breathless and absolutely full."
