We’re gathering some of the most inspiring, passionate, impactful people to join us for an intimate, powerful, once-in-a-lifetime event: the Certified Heroic Workshop Instructor training and Athens Activation!

👉 Head here to apply today!

Note: This event is NOT “just” for Coaches or Workshop Instructors. It’s also for high-performers in all professions who are looking to take their personal and professional performance to the next level. AND for people who are FIRED UP about exploring Athens with legends. More on all of that in just a moment.

Applications will be approved on a rolling basis. If approved, we’ll send you the link to purchase your ticket and secure your spot!

Note3: Just want to join us for a 2.5-day Athens Activation Experience from Nov 4-6? Head here to grab your ticket for that.

Before we get to the AWESOMENESS that's in store for us (including custom, unable-to-get-anywhere-else guided experiences), let's chat about the...

Advanced Heroic Training

In May 2024, we introduced a brand new, in-person, intensive training to complement what we do in our scientifically validated, 300-day Heroic Coach program.

We called it the Certified Heroic Workshop Instructor training.

We gathered 100+ of our top Certified Heroic Coaches in Austin and trained them to lead world-class, life-changing experiences through Heroic Workshops in 100+ cities in 13+ countries, acting as Heroic Leaders in their local communities.

We knew that we wanted each of them to leave feeling more confident in themselves, connected to one another, and activated as that next best, Heroic version.

What we didn't know was just (!) how (!) powerful (!!!) of an impact this training would have on those in attendance.

Fun fact → The “Net Promoter Score” for this new training is 95! That’s really (REALLY!) good, and means that nearly every single person (!!!) who went through the training and gave us feedback said they are “EXTREMELY likely” to recommend you do it too!!!

Now...

That first Workshop Instructor Training event was a three-day experience held in Austin, Texas, with a list price of $4,999.

In Athens we're increasing it from three days to six and taking EVERYTHING to a whole 'nother level.

Which brings us to...

The Certified Heroic Workshop Instructor Training & Athens Activation

During this six-day, once-in-a-lifetime event, you will:

(a) Forge excellence and activate the next level of your Heroic potential through our most powerful condensed training yet, with twenty+ hours of large and small group training spread over six days.

“I have obtained many certifications before and even teach a certification course myself, but this event is unlike any other!” —Stephanie C

🙌

(b) Traverse 5,000 years of human civilization and the roots of ancient wisdom, walking and studying and moving from Theory to Practice to Mastery as a “warrior of the mind” (not a mere librarian) in the same places that Zeno founded Stoicism and that Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle all walked and taught and practiced.

“Connecting physically to the historical birthplace of Areté, where the seeds of Stoic thought were planted—that will be transformative!” —Ariel E

🏛️

(c) Increase your capacity to create revenue and impact by being trained on how to lead and deliver Heroic Workshops, with everything you need to fill seats (think marketing assets like photos, testimonials, copy, and inclusion in a Heroic promoted workshop calendar) facilitate transformation (exercises, slides, participant packets) and make money (strategic guidance, suggested pricing, etc.).

Plus, learn how to use Heroic Workshops as powerful lead-generation assets for your 1:1 or group Coaching / Consulting / Training business (if that’s your thing)!

"I have been both a participant and a trainer in many different business-oriented workshops over the past 50-some years of my working life. The Heroic Workshop Instructor Training is one of the most powerful business experiences I have ever encountered." — Scott M

🔥

(d) Be guided through Athens by world-leading modern-day Stoic philosophers: Brian Johnson and Donald Robertson (world-leading expert on Stoicism, author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor, and founder of the Plato's Academy Centre), along with Heroic Head Coach Michael Balchan.

(e) Connect with other members of our community in a deeper way than ever before. Experience the training, experiential events, shared meals, and tons of small group interactions, in your personally assigned Heroic unit within the full group of up to 150 heroes.

“Get first-hand experience of the magic you can help to create in others! This may be the most important training to take you to the next level!” — Maggie G

🪄

(f) Become a part of a special group of our first wave of Local Leaders and Certified Heroic Workshop Instructors. Anyone who was in Heroic Coach — Class I or II knows how incredible this is!

(g) Be empowered with additional, ongoing support (from Heroic and your Heroic Coach + Workshop Instructor + Local Leader peers) to help you leverage and apply your training to CONTINUE increasing your revenue and impact over time as a foundational Heroic leader in your local community.

“The ability to do reps with other people who are in the trenches with you and being led by incredible facilitators was so valuable. I feel completely supported by the Heroic community and the team in my journey going forward as a Heroic Workshop Instructor.” — Debbie G

(h) Get some exclusive, next-level Heroic gear. 😎

🔥🔥🔥

It’s all happening in Athens, Greece.

November 4th-9th (Mon-Sat) 2024.

So…

Ready to activate the next phase of your Heroic potential with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?!

Head here to apply to join us in Athens!

Is This Event For Me?!

Well…

Let's revisit those incredible videos from above for the answer.

If you’re already an expert facilitator or coach or workshop instructor, the answer is… YES!

“Those who are expert facilitators or coaches or do their own workshops, it is going to be an absolutely fabulous and impactful experience for you to expand what you’re already doing. Even if you know a lot already, this will take you to a deeper and next level that’s actually sustainable. It is the blueprint to repeatedly come back to and sustain you over the course of your life.

Yes, it is a big commitment, but that’s where transformation comes from."


Andrea Wieland, PhD, MBA, OLY
Licensed Psychologist, 1996 Olympian, Founder of Winning Systems Psychology

Or…

Maybe you’re a new or aspiring Coach who is looking to get their business rocking.

Is this for you?!

YES!!!

"If you want to start your own coaching business, you will be given the tools you need to succeed. I came in here to really grow this coaching business that I have. After these three days I walked away with knowledge, the connections, and the tools I need to succeed.

Just take that next step. Speed is a force.”


Marlo Villanueva
Performance Coach, Class I Heroic Workshop Instructor

Or maybe you’re a rock-star professional (Investment Banker in Zurich, Partner in NYC, CEO in San Fran, etc.), and you’re looking for a cheat code for personal and professional development and mental performance mastery.

Is this for you?!

YES!!! (!!!)

“Literally a cheat code for personal and professional development and mental performance mastery.

I wanted to be able to grow my practice and learn some new tools and strategies. I got so sooo much more than I bargained for, in terms of my own personal development and moving forward with the growth of my business as well.

My experience was absolutely incredible, and quite honestly, life-changing.”


Gina Karnišovas
Certified Mental Performance Coach and Licensed Counselor

Again…

Are you ready to increase your capacity to influence change at a local level, expanding your impact (and income!) as a leader in your community and industry?

While also experiencing transformational personal and professional development and a once-in-a-lifetime Philosopher’s Experience in Athens, Greece?

Head here to apply for the Certified Heroic Workshop Instructor training and Athens Activation!

Just imagine yourself…

Just imagine yourself…

Feeling more confident than you’ve ever been.

Taking the next steps to create the life and business and impact that you know you’re capable of creating.

Physically and metaphorically.

You’re standing in awe at the foot of the Acropolis, the cradle of Western civilization.

You ascend the ancient steps to the Parthenon, the epitome of classical architecture, with its towering columns and intricate sculptures.

You marvel at the Temple of Athena Nike, dedicated to the goddess of wisdom and victory, and the Erechtheion, with its iconic Caryatids – the beautiful statues of maidens that support its porch (side note, seeing the carved detail of these up close in the Acropolis Museum literally took my breath away!).

Target swipe “appreciate beauty”, target swipe “find wonder and awe”. 🎯


You’re meandering through the narrow streets of Plaka, the oldest and most charming neighborhood in Athens, passing colorful houses, bustling markets, and cozy cafes.

You’re on a private guided tour exploring Plato’s Academy with Donald Robertson (world-leading expert on Stoicism, author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor, and founder of the Plato's Academy Centre).

You’re strolling through the VERY GROUNDS where Plato taught and Aristotle studied philosophy?! 🤯

And being a STUDENT of their teachings thousands of years later, in that exact same place.


You’ll also explore the Ancient Agora, the heart of ancient Athenian public life and walk the EXACT same paths where Socrates discussed virtue, wisdom, and the art of living a good life.

Along the way you’ll see the Stoa Poikile, the Painted Porch, where Zeno of Citium taught Stoicism.


You’ll hike up Mount Lycabettus, and swipe your "10,000 steps" target to a panoramic view of the city that stretches all the way to the Aegean Sea.


Taking the knowledge and tools and transformation you’ll experience in our Heroic Workshop Instructor training and implanting them deeply into your being with visceral, embodied experiences.

Then leaving Athens and returning home transformed, and ready to work to transform your local community.

So…

Are you in?!

Apply to Join Today!

The investment for this integrated six-day Heroic Workshop Training and Philosopher’s Experience in Athens is $6,999 USD. (Note: this investment does not include travel or accommodation.)

Of course, because we’re us, and (1) we know how special (and powerful!) this event is going to be, and (2) we're already feeling the ripples of impact spreading to create a flourishing world, and (3) we want to make it an easy “YES!!!” for you if you’re excited to join, and (4) you know we love practicing “Speed is a force!”…

Two- and three-month split-pay options are available as well!

And, as shared above TOTAL number of tickets sold will be capped at 150 people!

Go here to apply now. We’ll be ready to evaluate applications quickly so that if you’re approved, you receive an invite to checkout shortly thereafter.

And since we’re talking numbers, if you leave the training with your Certification and you then go lead…

  • 47 people through a three-hour workshop for $150 each = $7,050. (234 people = $35,100)
  • 14 people through a weekend workshop for $500 each = $7,000. (70 people = $35,000)
  • A single corporate training event = $5,00 to $10,000 to $35,000 to…

Note: That could be YOU!!! 👆

GOOSEBUMPS!!!

!!!

Before we wrap this up, a couple more important notes.

First: We’re committed to making sure that every Heroic workshop, hosted anywhere in the world, delivers a consistent, life-changing, world-class experience, one that positively impacts those who attend and spreads Heroic ripples throughout that community and towards 51 | 2051.

As such…

NOT everyone who joins the training is guaranteed to earn a Certification. You will be evaluated and required to successfully demonstrate your capacity to lead powerful, Heroic events.

Additionally, ONLY those people who have attended a Certified Heroic Workshop Instructor training event and earned their Certification will be permitted to lead Heroic branded workshops.

Now…

If you receive an invitation to join us, that means we believe that YOU are capable of meeting (or exceeding!) those standards.
