Description
Tribal Edge Young Men’s Initiation is a “coming of age” or rites of passage program for young men who are ready to experience a personal challenge and an initiation into healthy, empowered adolescence. It is an opportunity for our youth to experience something that has worked for thousands of years. The initiation process is not only a natural step toward adulthood, but into hu-manhood and thus plays a crucial role in helping to ensure the survival of individuals and their community as a whole.
Tribal Edge initiations take place over the span of eight days, with a small group of young men from ages 12-15. Through the process of personal duties, core routines, physical and values training, personal test/ challenges and ceremony the participant will pass through the stages of Separation, Transformation and Integration.
By providing a healthy blueprint for young people they can realize that they are not alone, that they can find their place of status within their community and that they, too, one day will be called upon to serve the youth, as wise elders and leaders.
