Our approach integrates cutting-edge behavioural science with timeless wisdom to create sustainable transformation.
At the core of all of our teachings is embodiment – how we feel within, ways we present and express ourselves, and the energy we give off as we work, live, and play.
The embodied leader gives off an energy of confidence, wisdom, and warmth that inspires others and gives them a sense of feelng truly supported.
The most effective leaders recognize the importance of being real – showing honesty, humility, and courage. People can feel it when you are being inauthentic, and it doesn't bode well for leadership.
The authentic leader's truthfulness helps others feel empowered, safe in their own vulnerabilities, and connected to you as a leader and your organization.
High-performance leaders and teams recognize the intensity of the work they do, and the very real risk of burnout in the context of our "always-on" world.
Through our experiential offerings as well as our teachings, we help you to craft a culture that embraces self-care and supports the long term well-being of you and your team in ways that actually improve the performance of your organization.
The earth is our home, and at POC, it's our dojo and playground. Through our work, we're committed to positively impacting humanity and preserving the earth, and we help organizations and teams do the same.
By bringing you into the backcountry, we help you deepen your appreciation for nature, recognize the impact of sustainable action, and remember the importance of preserving the planet.
The reality is that many of us have adapted to the intensity of modern life and work by disconnecting from our bodies. We unconsciously freeze, numb, and contract to avoid uncomfortable sensations and feelings. For many of us, this is the real root of stress, anxiety, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, and burnout.
By learning to get "out of our heads" and back into our bodies, somatics helps us to open up a world of information, allowing us to break out of unhealthy patterns (ie. over-eating, insomnia, rushing, inauthentic behaviour, unhealthy relationship dynamics) and into a more grounded, present, creative, and energized version of ourselves.
You might be asking, "what does this have to do with ledership?". If you look closely, it has everything to do with leadership – the most respected and effective leaders have a unique quality to them that is the result of learning to connect with their body, processing emotional blockages that compromise their work, and cultivating their inner state on an ongoing basis.
As a result of this work, you feel more confident, your energy levels rise, your mind becomes sharper and more intuitive, and you begin to show up more effectively in how you relate to others.
None of this requires you to memorize frameworks, create 100-page slide decks, or convince others to listen to what you have to say. Somatics is a way of being that transforms your life and work from the inside–out.

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.

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.
