It is dusk in the bushveld. The fire is being laid, and the sky is going that colour that only happens at the end of an African day. You are standing on the deck of a treetop suite, fifteen metres up in the canopy.
Below you, an elephant moves through the long grass without making a sound. The first stars are coming through.
This is what we are offering you: five nights at Nambwa, in the wilds of Bwabwata National Park. A sweat lodge ceremony that strips away what has been holding on. Hojo sword training in the long golden light of dusk. Breathwork that quiets a man’s whole system. Firewalking. Game drives, boat cruises, sundowners and a bush dinner beneath the stars.
And every night, the fire circle — where the work goes deep and a brotherhood is forged that most men go their whole lives without knowing exists.
You have done what was asked of you. You have built the business, the career, the family — perhaps all three. You have shown up. You have provided. You have armoured up when life required it of you.
And you have not put the armour down in a long time.
Quietly, when the world goes still, something in you may be asking a question you have not quite let yourself answer:
Is this all there is?
This is not a self-improvement course. It is not a coaching weekend. It is a threshold.
You do not need to be in spiritual work. You do not need to be sure of anything. You only need to be willing to put down what you have been carrying for five days, in a circle of men who will meet you exactly where you are.
Untamed Men
Hojo sword work, breathwork and guided sessions bring attention back to the body and the present moment.
The sweat lodge, firewalk and nightly circles make room for the things a man may have carried for too long.
Through the wild, the work and the circle, discover a brotherhood that is honest, steady and real.
Nambwa Tented Lodge has ten luxurious tented suites nestled high among the tree canopies, allowing elephants and other wildlife to move freely beneath you.
You will not feel like a guest in nature. You will become part of it. The wide layout and elevated design create privacy, stillness and peaceful nights. Luxury and wilderness sit together: you know you are safe, yet you feel expansive.
From international rugby to South Africa’s first male supermodel, to Hollywood, to one of the world’s leading consciousness trainers, Brett has walked a rare road.
He has trained more than twenty-seven thousand people and is the creator of Hojo Consciousness Training. In Untamed Men, he guides the inner architecture of the work: the I AM principles and the Hojo sword form he has spent twenty-five years walking men through.
Behind all of it, you meet a man who has walked through his own fire and come back with truth to share.
A fifty-cap Springbok and Toulon Hall of Famer, Joe dominated international rugby for thirteen years before walking away from the field into one of the most honest transformation journeys in modern sport.
Through deep breathwork training and more than fifty ceremonies, he has built a quiet authority that you feel before he speaks.
In Untamed Men, Joe holds the breath, the body and the somatic ground of each day. There is no performance with him. Only presence.
Born with haemophilia, paralysed in 2013 and later the man who scaled Mount Kilimanjaro on crutches, Cobus knows what it means to meet a threshold.
He is Africa’s only Master Firewalking Instructor and author of Walking Through Fire. More than thirteen thousand people have crossed a threshold with him.
In Untamed Men, Cobus holds the firewalk: the ancient rite of passage where men walk across burning coals, prepared with care through drum, rhythm and truth.
Founder of Retreats in the Wild and African Monarch Journeys, Tinolla built this space because she saw what the men in her life were carrying — and what they had nowhere to lay down.
She holds the rhythm and ceremonial integration of the five days, from the first evening fire to the moment she bids you farewell.
With a unique gift for awakening the wisdom already within each person, Tinolla helps men reconnect with themselves, one another and the living intelligence of the natural world.
International guests can connect via Johannesburg or Cape Town to Katima Mulilo, Kasane, Victoria Falls or Livingstone. Our team provides clear lodge-transfer timing, airport support, visa guidance and 24/7 on-ground care.
Please pack: lightweight, breathable clothing in natural tones; warm layers for evenings; comfortable walking shoes; swimwear; a hat; sunscreen; insect repellent and a sense of adventure.

Yes. The days are full but unhurried, with quiet time to rest on your private deck, integrate what is arising and simply be.
That this is five days to put down what you have been carrying, in a circle of men, in one of the wildest places left. Most men come home steadier — and their families feel it.
