TRANSFORMATIONAL COACH & MENTOR
THE EMBODIED KING BROTHERHOOD
A community of men devoted to truth and honor
A BROTHERHOOD OF COMMITTED MEN READY TO RISE, HEAL, AWAKEN AND LEAD
The Embodied King Brotherhood is a kinship-based global online community of men committed to their healing, awakening, and embodied spiritual maturation for the benefit of not only themselves, but their families, communities, children, and humanity as a whole.
​
It is a community of men rising to break the chains of wounded masculinity in their family lineage and on this planet and lead a new way forward from embodied integrity, grounded presence, and fierce love.
​​
It is a Brotherhood of men ready to embody their capacity for powerful heart-centered leadership, take radical responsibility for the reality of all areas of their lives, be the change they wish to see in all men for the benefit of all beings, and to be held accountable to that standard of integral excellence in brotherhood.​
TEK Brotherhood is also both the entry point and sustainer of the prayer that is The Embodied King Men's Work, a movement and complete spiritual path in itself to the healing, transformation, realization, and maturation of men.
WHO IS THE BROTHERHOOD FOR?
FOR THE MAN READY TO ANSWER THE CALL OF HIS HEART, AND RISE IN AWAKENED MASCULINE LEADERSHIP
The Embodied King Brotherhood welcomes men at every stage of their healing, maturation, and spiritual journey. And yet they all have one thing in common beneath all experience; they are ready to answer a calling to evolve beyond adolescent boyhood behavior. They are humble enough to ask for the help they need to rise as the heart-centered leader they know they can be with the support of experienced guidance and brotherhood.
If this is you, this is your group, this is your path and this is your brotherhood.​​​
YOU ARE WELCOME
No matter where you stand, The Embodied King Brotherhood has a space to meet you exactly where you are—while inviting you to grow into the man you’re becoming.
EXPERIENCED ON THE PATH OR NEW TO MEN'S WORK
For those already well seasoned on their spiritual/healing journey or if your just beginning, you'll find all levels of practice and commitment to either continue to deepen or receive the clarity on how to get started while being immersed in the fire of a committed brotherhood.

CALL TIMES AND STRUCTURE
On the first Wednesday of every month, there will be a TEK Full Brotherhood Call with both Foundations and Alumni. This will be a 90 minute coaching call and men's circle with Ian and it will also be the monthly on-boarding call for new brothers and re-commitment call for any men who are starting a new 2 month commitment cycle (this is explained in the commitments section).
The Alumni Brotherhood will have a second Alumni only 90 minute call with Ian on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Foundations Brotherhood will have their second monthly call on the 3rd Thursday of every month lead by an Alumni brother. Every new foundations brother will also have an alumni wingman for continuous monthly 1:1 support and accountability.​​​​​​​​​
​
There ​will also be spontaneous workshops from alumni brothers on specific topics from fitness, to finance to spirituality and more as well as off week men's circles.
TEK CALL GUIDELINES
1. PROPER SPACE
Seated on the floor or chair with proper cushions to be upright with a straight back with space to move and privacy to make noise and be undisturbed.
​
2. ​PROPER LIGHTING
We should be able to see you from the chest up and clearly be able to see your face and eyes fully present and ready for practice.
​​
3. PROPER INTERNET
Make sure your internet connection is secure and stable for the calls. This can vary and is sometimes out of our control however the intention is to consciously and meticulously plan to make sure it is the best it can be so you can practice and connect well with the group.
4. LAPTOP WITH GALLERY VIEW, NO PHONES
All calls must be joined from a laptop with gallery view so that you can see all brothers and the space clearly and they can see you.
​
5. NO CALLS FROM PUBLIC SPACES OR WHILE TRAVELING
Sometimes this cannot be avoided, but in general, do not take calls from public space or while traveling or in transit. Your space must be private and free of distractions.
6. SOBRIETY
Do not show up for calls under the infuence of substance of any kind. Your vessel must be sober and mind clear.
​
7. NO EATING
Eating is not allowed on the calls and show up to the calls having eaten your last meal at least an hour ago so as to make sure strong breath or movement practice does not disturb you or cause discomfort. Drinks and water close by are of course ok. ​​
All live calls will take place on zoom.
The work is 75% embodied practice or exercises and it's important that your space is set up for this on every call. We adhere to the understanding that how we show up for the calls is how we are showing up for life. How we present ourselves is a practice and expression of our level of maturity and consciousness in itself. Below are the guidelines for how we practice this. ​

THE COMMITMENT
To be in this circle, and in this prayer, a minimum commitment must be upheld by every brother.
THE EMBODIED KING BROTHERHOOD IS NOT A HANG OUT, IT'S FOR MEN READY TO BE INITIATED INTO THE NEXT STAGE OF EMBODIED & AWAKENED MANHOOD
In every ancient culture in which there was an authentic spiritual path oriented towards truth, love and God, men have gathered ritualistically with one another to sharpen, reflect and hold one another accountable to uphold the integrity, safety, core values and well being of the tribe.
​
They recognized that men where the providers of the physical, emotional and spiritual safety. If men were not well in themselves or in alignment with each other, the tribe was not safe and could not move forward, much like what we witness today. They understood that there was nothing more important for the well being of the tribe than their commitment to gather and help each other to heal, rise and awaken in love and strength.
​
The pure intention of the brotherhood and of this sacred work is the fire that lights the way forward, but the commitment and integrity of each man in the circle is the wood that keeps that fire burning.
WHAT IT TAKES TO JOIN US
(TEK CORE COMMITMENTS)
TEK HONOR CODE OF INTEGRITY
Every man commits to adhere to the TEK Honor Code of Integrity, meaning, if he falls out of integrity with any of his personal stated commitments or "TEK Standard Commitments" he will hold himself accountable by stating this publicly in the brotherhood and performing 1 of the multiple "TEK Clean Ups" (an approximately 20 minute practice of physical training, breath, and meditation)
TEK HONOR CODE THE C.C.H.A.O.S CONTAINER AGREEMENT OF INTEGRITY
Every man commits to adhere to the following agreements.
​
-
Confidentiality: Every word and story that is spoken in the brotherhood, stays in the brotherhood.
-
Commitment: To uphold and adhere to all commitments and guidelines of the brotherhood.
-
Honesty: To speak and express with total sincerity and honestly to the best of ones ability.
-
Acceptance: To accept every brother in the space with a non judgmental and embracing attitude.
-
Ownership: Taking full ownership for our experience, thoughts and feelings by using "I" statements and refraining from projecting our story onto others.
-
Sacredness: Treating this brotherhood, the calls, and our work as if it were a sacred ceremony meant for our deepest healing and showing up for that prayer accordingly.
If you fail to meet these commmitments in some way shape or form after joining, you will have an opportunity to do a "Clean Up" to come back into integrity with these commitments (Commitment #3).
If you fail to meet these commitments and you also fail to adhere to the TEK Honor Code of integrity we will understand that this kind of space is not for you at this time in your journey. We take commitment, accountability, practice and integrity very seriously and this brotherhood is for men ready to commit and go deep.
