Description

A special winter solstice event.

We are living in a paradoxical time of global connection and shattering separation.

This event is an introduction to the principles, processes, and practices of peacekeeping. The Peacekeeper walks the edge of order and chaos as a protector of the complex balance of life and harmony.

This overnight experience includes conversation, lecture, physical training, and an opportunity for a night quest.

The way of the protector and peacekeeper are at the core of the Tribal Edge vision. For almost two decades I have trained “everyday heroes”, meaning humans who are ready, willing, and able to take effective action in challenging situations, while making everyone around them feel a little bit safer because they are present.

Protectors are often misunderstood, and for good reason as their paradoxical role includes a great deal of seeming contradiction. How can one practice and value the skills that give life and take life with equal dedication and appreciation?

For the protector it is more than having the skills, it is having the wisdom to use those skills appropriately in various confusing and chaotic contexts.

The way of the Peacekeeper is not for everyone. It is a calling and a challenge to explore the nature of conflict, peace and the world in between.
