ABOUT THE RETREAT

Hard Reset is an immersive retreat built to serve you a monster dose of Alaskan nature with a motivated and like minded tribe. Education and application rolled into the adventure of a lifetime.

UNPLUG

Alaska should say enough about the remote nature we will be in, far away from the hustle and bustle of any city. The air taxi in over the mountains and along the lakeside cliffs will solidify the cord is pulled.

RECONNECT

This retreat will highlight human performance tactics and primal skills training from our seasoned coaches to reconnect you with nature's influences on our systems, natural patterns and natural skills to support you in your everyday lives and performances as well as prepare you for the worst case scenarios the world has to offer. Built to illuminate the connection our health and peace have with nature and deliver you education on how to experience and improve all the benefits that nature can deliver for your life.

RESET

The immersive environment carefully curated with education, conversations, and activities have been combined to provide you with a hard reset and new approach on how to reset at home when things get hard.
