Skills that Build Men
Iron John Academy is a Tokyo-based community of men who are passionate about personal growth through developing hard and soft skills to improve their personal and professional lives.
What's the concept?
We believe that competence builds confidence, but sometimes it's not easy to get started. We create the space to learn new skills and also connect to growth-focused people.
What's the commitment?
We encourage you to only join the classes you're interested in. If you wish, we may send you announcements of future classes and workshops.
Is it free?
Attending classes is not free. The fee varies from class to class and depends on the coach and the venue. We will refund your fee if you feel like the class didn't teach you what it promised.
Classes
No membership fee, no commitment. Join one class, return for more. Stay for the community.We offer hands-on workshops and premium in-person lectures with selected, high-grade coaches on:
Health and Fitness
Relationships: Dating, Family, Fatherhood
Defense, Combat and Strategy
Survival and Rescue
Financial Literacy
Self-Mastery
Style and Presentation
Woodwork, Leatherwork, DIY
Cooking
and more.
Where are you?
We are based in Tokyo and open to students who can commute to the venue. The classes are in-person and some are hands-on workshops, so joining online is not an option.
Is it for men only?
Yes. Our target audience identifies as male and faces the challenges of the modern man. We aim to teach skills that men traditionally learn from their fathers and grandfathers.
Who are the coaches?
The coaches are just people who excel at their skill and are happy to teach. Some of them are professional trainers, others are just sharing their passion.
Hello Fellow Students
This past Monday, we held a powerful Emotional Intelligence workshop with Coach Nathan. Big thanks to everyone who showed up and helped make it such a meaningful experience. Emotional mastery is a core part of a man’s strength, and it’s inspiring to see so many of you stepping into that work. If you missed it, don’t worry. We’ll have more opportunities to dive into this topic again soon.We’ve got a series of exciting classes already in the works, and you’ll be hearing about them over the next few days. In the meantime, I’d love it if you could take a minute to fill out our quick pulse-check survey. It helps me shape the path ahead and gives our coaches a boost of motivation.Lastly, if Iron John Academy has spoken to you, spread the word to a friend, brother, or colleague. Share a link to this website or ask them to search for Iron John Academy. And if you’ve got an extra sticker or two, pass one on to someone you think might enjoy this journey.Take care and stay strong,
Leszek
