JOIN US

We’d love you to join us on this journey.

Together, we’re going to hit pause and look at what’s going on in our lives.

Bringing our focus & attention to all that we love. Acknowledging & releasing what is getting in the way.

  • This is a time to slow down & breathe easier.
  • To tread lighter & drop deeper.
  • The confidentiality of all that is shared is assured.
  • We welcome all who identify as men, 21 years of age & over, from all walks of life & persuasions. Encouraging & embracing diversity & inclusiveness in all its precious forms.

TICKETS

We are inviting Men into this sacred circle. Your attendance is confirmed once your ticket is purchased.

It honours our time & energy in crafting, catering & delivering the gathering itself. It acknowledges the energy that our First Nations Brothers & Uncles bring.

And contributes towards the ongoing development of our work.

  • Experience tells us that less is often more.
  • Our gatherings are small, safe, focused & intimate.
  • Spaces are limited. Attending a gathering is a big decision
  • Each man must decide himself when he is ready.
  • Resist the temptation to purchase a ticket for another man without his agreement.

REFUND / CANCELLATION

Within reason, refunds &/or date changes are not possible once payment has been made. You may however sell your ticket to another man.

FIRST NATIONS WISDOM

We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land we gather on. Sacred Djaara – Dja-Dja-Wurrung Country. Always was, and always will be.

  • On this land, the Djaara people performed age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation & renewal.
  • We honour their living culture & a deep connection to their Country.
  • Our deep respect for elders past, present & emerging.
  • It is not guaranteed that our Elders will always be available to attend our gatherings.
  • Their presence with us in the circle is a deep privilege rather than a given.
  • We do all that we can to have them safely alongside us. We always pay the rent – acknowledging their time & energy.

LOCATION / DIRECTIONS

For those of you visiting tanderrum for the first time, the easiest way from Melbourne is this. Over the Westgate Bridge, exit at the Western Ring Road, then on to the Western Freeway. Exit onto Ballan-Daylesford Rd (C141) & head up to Daylesford. Right at the Howe St / Raglan St round-about then a left up at the Midland Hwy. Turn left into Carroll’s Lane off the Midland Highway just after passing Lalgambook (Mt. Franklin). Left into Lithia Lane. Travel about 1.65km, past the large holding dam on the left. Head down through a little dip in the road then enter the first driveway on the left with a stone wall entrance. Look for the signs that say tanderrum & “181”. Follow the driveway till you arrive at the shed. Park. Turn your phone off & put it in the glove box. Get out & breathe the rarified air.

Carpooling is a fine idea.
