Retreats and expeditions that inspire, foster deep connections, and facilitate transformation through physical challenge, nature connection, and guided workshops
Whether you’re looking to unwind, build cohesion, or launch a rocket-ship, we're here to help make it happen.
Our expeditions and retreats are designed from the ground up to enhance your ability to lead a high-performing team. We meticulously craft each trip to create embodied lessons and memories that will stay with you for life.
Our approach integrates cutting-edge behavioral science with timeless principles to create powerful, lasting transformations.
Our retreats and expeditions are by no means cookie cutter. We work with you to design each aspect of the journey – including the location, workshops, guides, and itinerary – so that your team gets the outcomes you need.
Before our time together, we'll meet with you over the course of several calls in order to learn about you (and if applicable, you team), including your values, current challenges and goals, and what you're looking to get out of working with us.
Through this process, we'll craft a unique experience plan with your input and creative vision along the way.

An epic canoeing adventure in one of the most serene locations in Canada
Fly into the remote great bear rainforest of BC to learn about indigenous history, culture, and leadership principles, tour a rare ecosystem with white spirit bears, and create incredible memories with your team
These are some of the typical elements of the experiences we host and guide – however, we can customize the experience any way you want (for example, a slow-paced expedition that isn't physically demanding and with loads of free time, or a retreat with plenty of high-intensity trekking and other physical challenges)
Our expeditions are about transformation through adversity: we take you to one or more locations in the backcountry, where physically demanding adventures and challenges help you build cohesion as a team, practice performing under pressure, and experience awe in the stunning beauty of the wilderness.
Our retreats focus on restoration, reflection, self-care, and creative brainstorming. They take place in comfortable lodges and retreat centres where your team can focus on slowing down, being introspective, and connecting and learning as a group through guided workshops.
The food at our expeditions is high quality and prepared by experienced cooks, but considers that we're in the backcountry and often need to carry all the ingredients as we travel.
The food at our retreats is of exceptional quality and prepared by experienced chefs, and depending on your taste, can be incredibly exquisite and unique.
Expeditions are ideal for individuals and teams that are high-energy, capable of physical exertion, and are willing to face some discomfort in order to grow and bond.
Retreats are ideal for individuals and teams that are looking to slow down, rest after a major period of work, and become more grounded and self-aware.
While every expedition is unique, activities that yours may include are timed "missions" that require subgroups or the group a whole to collaborate in order to solve a problem, physically challenging day trips, collaborating to decide how and where to set up camp, and other strategic and physically demanding challenges that support team cohesion and learning as a group.
Each retreat is unique, and may include activities such as meditation and breathwork workshops, yoga classes, less challenging guided hikes in nature, contemplative time in nature, group problem-solving and brainstorming sessions, exercises that build vulnerability and help team-members practice vulnerability and build deeper friendships, and lots of unstructured free time for rest and play.
Chris and his team were the perfect guides for this fun and transformational experience. Chris is in his element in a canoe and in the Algonquin terrain. He pushed us while allowing us the space to learn and grow. We ate well, were supplied with all the equipment we would need, and always felt safe. Reach out to Chris and his teamand see how they can create an experience that will touch your soul!
In situations where i previously wasn't doing a good job of taking control (ie. a moment of entrepreneurial overwhelm, self-sabotage) - I didn't have the tools to stop those interactions. Now, that’s completely changed.
I left for the trip feeling pulled away from my life (work/wife/kids/etc) and I came back feeling refreshed and given another chance to enjoy life.
CK and his crew are awesome. They managed to guide, care for, and feed a group of 30 without a hitch. This was a trip for a mens' empowerment group and we ate like kings every day.
CK was able to bring such a vibe and skill that even the most "manly man" was willing to talk about the challenges they've had and to help each other heal and grow.
The retreat was an incredible safe space and community of men to grow in wellbeing and make a paradigm shift together into further growth and healing. As a busy COO of one of America's fastest-growing companies, it's been so long since l've had the right opportunity to unplug and take the special time needed to reconnect with myself, find healing, and practice mindfulness - and the Reconnect Retreat was the perfect place to do that and even discover like-minded brothers and get excellent guidance in emotional wellbeing.
From the moment everyone was together, Louis and Jack created a warm, open, and accepting environment for everyone.
There was an immediate sense of safety that allowed me to bring down my walls and truly explore myself and express it.
Details were meticulous. Every morning, there were sessions to settle into yourself for the experiences of the day. I would encourage anyone looking to deepen their self-awareness and care to do so with skilled guides to not think twice about attending a POC retreat. The only bad thing I have to say is that I wanted more time with the incredible men who attended the retreat.
Have questions? We’re here to help.
All of our retreats and expeditions are held in nature — from cozy retreat centers in stunning locations to rugged, remote wilderness. What sets us apart is the combination of immersive outdoor experiences with deeply facilitated leadership work, including team building, somatic practices, and experiential workshops designed to unlock personal and professional growth.
Each retreat or expedition is built around a core of leadership development. We use a blend of guided workshops, somatic tools, group reflection, and nature-based challenges to deepen awareness, build emotional intelligence, and strengthen team dynamics. If you'd like to see a sample itinerary or speak with us directly, we’re happy to share more. Contact us here.
We do our best to accommodate a wide range of health needs. Some of our experiences are physically demanding, especially expeditions, while others are more accessible. Please let us know about any medical conditions in advance so we can help you choose the right trip and ensure you're supported. We can also cater to most common food allergies and dietary needs, including peanut, soy, and shellfish allergies, as well as vegetarian, vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free diets.
Pricing varies depending on the length, location, and style of the experience. Most of our multi-day retreats start at a minimum of $3,000 USD per person while expeditions tend to be higher due to logistics and remoteness. We’re happy to discuss options and what’s included during a call.
