"For those of us on the spiritual path and called to be of service, especially at this time in Earth’s history, it is critical that we each have a strong support system, loving guidance from high-integrity mentors and teachers, and access to the right information at the right time. [The Dojo] program provided all of those to me in a way that was both challenging, fun, and of course, magical. 

To start, Sumit and Cole prayerfully helped me take inventory of my past-present-future and design and implement a regular morning ritual system. These two, in combination with regular meetings with my fellow Dojo-mates, would go on to help me re-program un-useful habits, attitudes, and patterns, surface and release deeply-engrained fears floating underneath the surface, and in turn create a new and improved me. The results came quickly and powerfully (you’ve now been warned) not only for me, but also for my fellow Dojo-mates. 

These benefits aside, it also truly rare to get the chance to benefit from a master teacher’s decades of devoted study and doing so demystified spiritual and psycho-technologies for me, equipped me with multiple Yogic power-ups I didn’t know I needed, and deepened my appreciation and wonder for shamanism and alchemy even more. It honestly felt a bit like being a young wizard at Hogwarts. Sumit is Dumbledore and Cole is Professor McGonagall. So if you’re tired of being a muggle, grab your wand and step into the Dojo. If you’re like me, you’ll be deeply grateful you did."

"Being a part of The Dojo has been such a privilege for me. I know in my heart that this is a vehicle that will go on to inform so many people in the future as it has done so beautifully for me. The concept of The Dojo came up during my [retreat work] with Cole and Sumit, and I felt immediately called. 

It has served as this incredible expansion of knowledge on my prior practices, the power and infinite wisdom of plant medicine and topics ranging from eastern philosophy to astrology and far beyond. I feel like it’s created more discipline in my own practices, and expanded my spiritual horizons beyond what I thought possible a few months ago. 

The container itself has been a beautiful and safe space to learn and to be collectively vulnerable. I have so much gratitude to Sumit and Cole for the decades of wisdom articulated and passed on, alongside the continued theme of love and support that I have experienced consistently since they came into my life. 

I’d recommend this whole heartedly for any seekers out there."

"Seven years ago, the ground under my feet had given out;  the weight of so much heartbreaking loss, an abusive work drive, all the self-medicating, running on empty, and operating out of fear had taken it’s toll… and my body gave out. I was desperate, frustrated and slowly realized I needed to make what seemed like radical and impossible changes.  

What started with a holistically focused healing journey of my physical health, brought me to the daunting task of addressing my mental and emotional wellness. I had tried everything conventional; meds, all manner of different kinds of therapies and I could feel I had plateaued. So I searched for alternative methods which led me to exploring plant medicines in 2022.  My first retreat was transformative.  I learned so much, and realized I had so much more to learn. Integration was a puzzle;  I didn't even know where to begin. I felt like an alien struggling to reconcile what felt like the new me with the "old me".  

Despite being supported by amazing friends and chosen family who have all been on their own spiritual journey, I felt alone and lost, so I decided to just try The Dojo. I didn't know what to expect, but I knew that Cole is a spiritual force and Sumit holds decades of knowledge and experience AND spoke my language— Logical, scientific, and a "practical" approach to the magic. 

They had guided us so well during our retreat - but the Dojo was another level.  WELL beyond what I expected. I am now committed to taking the Dojo for the whole year - all 4 seasons.  Just the sheer amount of knowledge and information being shared has been VITAL to my growth and evolution. The wisdom, the self verification, the carefully curated discussions... it's been educational, edifying, challenging and... magical.  

As someone who is just starting out on my journey, I needed support and community. This is a space that provides both - thoroughly.  I hope I get to meet more of you on this path, and I look forward to growing and sharing in this amazing work we're all a part of"
