MKP Houston Board of Directors & TEAMS MKP Houston Certified Leader Body MANKIND PROJECT Brochure MANKIND PROJECT Companion Brochure What is the New Warrior Training Adventure?

The ManKind Project was founded in Milwaukee in 1984 by Rich Tosi, a former Marine Corps officer and corporate executive, Bill Kauth, a psychotherapist and social activist and Ron Herring, Ph. D., a clinical psychologist and educator who had...

Mission Statement: “I create a world of healing through hope, beginning with myself.”

My journey of healing began in 1995, when I changed my life and career to one committed to healing the hopeless, for I was one. By profession and personal quest, I touch lives daily and advocate for change by modeling my mission to audiences from inner city youth to the U.S. Congress.

Frequently Asked Questions about the New Warrior Training Adventure

Thu, 15 Feb 2007 14:25:19 GMT

The New Warrior Training Adventure is an invitation to step forward and look in the mirror. What do you see? Are you the leader that you are looking for? Are you living on the edge of your life? What stands between you and taking action in your world? What is the risk for you to take full responsibility for your life, for living it from the inside out? Do you have the courage to face your own fears and insecurities and discover the tremendous power and beauty that lies within you? Are you willing to step into the fullness of who you really are? Are you willing to discover the real joy and terror of being a man? If so, this training may be for you.

We do not recommend this training for every man. To participate in this training, you must be highly committed to your life, and ready to take a hard look at yourself, your deepest fears, your wounds from the past, and the specific ways your life is not working for you. We choose to work only with men who are ready and willing to do this initiatory work with us.
