About this event

Men Walking

One of the best things we can do for our ourselves as men is connect with other men who are not afraid to talk about what's important.

Andres and I occasionally walk our dogs (and his young boy) in the woods. When I suggested we host an informal "men's walking" group he was enthusiastic.

There is no agenda, other than to share some fresh-air time with each other and other men who might want to stretch their legs, and maybe talk about what's up.

What might we talk about? I'm not even going to start a list. Pretty much anything that's giving you a hard time —or a good time!— is something we can listen to while we walk.

No expectations. If you want to just be with other men going for a walk with their dogs and kids, you're welcome to join us.

Register (no charge) and I'll send you the next walk location.

Call if you have any questions.

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my dog?

If your dog is friendly and is relatively well-trained, yes please, bring your dog. I've got two of my own, Ruby and Lotte. Andres has one, Alan. They'll be with us pretty much every walk.

Can I bring my kids?

Andres often brings his little guy in a carrier. I encourage you to bring yours too. Our kids need to see us having healthy connections with other men.

Is this where we get stuff off our chest about our wives/partners?

By all means get stuff off your chest —BUT, keep the focus on you. I want to hear how you're feeling. I want to know how you're struggling. I want to heart about how you're doing a great job, even though it's overwhelming lots of the time. I DO NOT want to hear you complain about other people.

Is this part of a larger men’s group or program?

Andres teaches a weekly men's yoga class. I teach men's and couples' programs, and in 2024 I'll be leading online and in-person men’s groups. This Men Walking group has no formal link to anything that we are currently offering. It's just a way to offer a space for men.
