I feel it is a great program and it is great that men can get together and talk over issues affecting men. I like being able to speak freely about my feeling and thoughts with the other guys and I know I am not going to be judged.

I seriously recommend it! As someone who cane from a family where a short fuse was vital and communication skills did not exist, I found it it extremely helpful in understanding how hurtful it can be to my family without being physically violent. It has certainly the best thing I have done to get in touch with my self.

Do it! It’s awesome! You learn more about yourself and how you treat others. It is a wake up call.

Encourage them to do it. They will get a lot out of this program.

He is able to deal with a little more pressure than he could before. He does not blow a fuse or erupt as quickly as he used to.

He has stopped making everything all about him. He is a better husband because he is more aware of when he starts his abuse and stops very quickly.

Deals with situations more rationally.

Excellent for making men aware of what ‘abusive Behaviour’ actually is and excellent for giving them tools to control their behaviour.

Your partner needs to want to do this program for themselves. Your partner needs to be committed to changing because they themselves want to change.

Hi Dave, It has been many years since I did your course and saw you on ABC tonight. In those days I was seeing my kids every second weekend and was struggling with anger.

The work that he does is brilliant and the way he is tackling the systemic toxic masculinity is vital work. In a primary setting we are not immune from it and see these power imbalance type behaviours being reinforced by dads and ignored or brushed over by mums.
