About this Retreat
Your Guides
Dion Freeman is the Kaitiaki (guardian) and lineage holder of Honohono Healing International. He carries the teachings of his grandmother, Sally Ranguiaia Deery, and Tohunga (Spiritual Elder) Riwai Pakerau, who entrusted him with the responsibility of keeping Honohono alive and sharing it with integrity.
For over two decades, Dion has guided individuals and groups through healing, training, and transformation. His work is deeply rooted in Māori healing traditions while also responding to the needs of today, bridging ancient wisdom with modern life.
As teacher and facilitator of the Honohono Healing Retreat in Spain, Dion brings a presence that is both grounding and transformative. His teaching style combines clear guidance with deep care, offering a safe and powerful container for participants to explore, heal, and grow.
Dion’s vision is to open pathways for people across the world to reconnect to themselves, their whānau (families), and the collective through the sacred practice of Honohono.
Details of this retreat
The Way of the Warrior Retreat is more than a weekend away. It is a call to men who are ready to rise, to face themselves with honesty, and to walk forward with clarity, strength, and purpose.
For three days you will be guided by Bart Pronk and Dion Freeman through a powerful journey of ritual, silence, breathwork, and embodied practices. This retreat is not about battle or performance. It is about cultivating the presence and resilience needed to live authentically, lead with integrity, and reconnect with the strength that already lives within you.
What Makes This Retreat Special
- Brotherhood – A rare men-only space where masks fall away, every story is welcome, and connection is built on honesty and respect.
- Powerful Facilitation – Dion carries decades of transformational work and ancestral wisdom, while Bart brings years of experience in breathwork, resilience training, and extreme expeditions. Together they offer depth, clarity, and practical tools for lasting change.
- Complete Transformation – The work spans body, mind, and spirit, integrating mental discipline, emotional awareness, spiritual growth, and physical practices. It is a true initiation that strengthens every part of who you are.
- Immersed in Nature – Set in the wild beauty of the Ardennes, with rivers, forests, and hidden caves, the land itself becomes part of the experience.
What You Will Receive
✔ Mental mastery – sharpen focus, discipline, and clarity
✔ Emotional intelligence – connect with emotions and others authentically
✔ Spiritual growth – awaken intuition and presence
✔ Embodied strength – practices that ground transformation in your body
This is deep work, held with care, designed for men who are ready to shed old patterns, awaken inner fire, and step into their warrior path.
