The Courage To...

A full evening that will leave you feeling empowered, courageous, and deeply supported by the people who happen to come together for the workshop. Firewalking sounds crazy, macho, maybe masochistic -- but it is none of those things. What it is instead is a way to learn in your body how to manage fear by relaxing and focusing... and we live in very scary, uncertain times. A series of exercises, all optional, build to the opportunity to walk unharmed across hot coals. If you come, it will be an evening you remember happily for the rest of your life. Cultivate courage!
Here is how a few participants in the January 11 firewalk described their experience:
I was searching for a way to mark my transition into a new life, a new state, a new community. I saw this class advertised in the Ithaca Times and it was more than I could have imagined.
We all came from tribal people and the need to be witnessed in our challenges and initiations in life may be part of some of our cultural mental health issues – take the class, mature, and remember your power.
Rebecca Cunningham, 61
This experience allowed me to find and feel my power. It honored my experience and manifested a safe space to feel. A collective of strangers’ hearts held my own as I set intentions, faced fears, and stepped into my power.
Thank you. Truly.
Colleen Cole, 44
Tony did a great job of leading the class and making people feel very comfortable. After doing all the exercises, I left feeling empowered and like life is here for the living. Don’t let fear and self-doubt get in your way!!
Teresa Piper, 43
This was an awesome experience. Whether you complete each challenge or choose not to, it was an empowering and supportive environment. Everyone was celebrated in their journey.
Colleen F, 47
Everyone goes through trials & tribulations. One thing is a constant through all of it. Yourself. Anyone who is struggling, or just needs to center themselves, should absolutely do this. It is a life-changing experience, whether you are spiritual or not. I cannot be more thankful to Tony.
Catherine Pearson, 28
I came to the firewalk to get my power back after the pain of my divorce. I was able to break through my pain and see my own power as I broke a board with my bare hand, and an arrow with the most vulnerable part of my neck. I began to rebuild trust as I fell into the arms of strangers, and I conquered my fear by walking through fire.
René Micalizzi, 56
This was among the most unique experiences I’ve ever had. I can’t believe I found this scrolling events on Facebook. I’m proud of myself for having the courage to try something completely new. I had no idea what to expect. I will never forget this evening. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Amanda Zell, 43
It was a lot of fun. A way to connect with others and myself. Fear is something that can be controlled and used to further creativity. It just takes faith.
Shawn Testa, 36
Highly recommend! The experience was way beyond any expectations I came with. The camaraderie that developed among our group of 20+ strangers was amazing, as we cheered on one another throughout the evening. Insight gained on myself – indescribably valuable. Tony is terrific.
