Getting started: Before you jump in, read the Dad Strength Manifesto. If our values are aligned, choose one of the options below:
"Dad Strength calls have become a ritual that I look forward to every week. I now have a connection with a group of people that I can ask or receive advice from—and share a commonality with. I feel a bit less lost in this sticky terrain of being a dad.
I am exceedingly grateful for this group."
—Jeremy Glenn
Take care of yourself, man.
Dad Strength retreats give fathers the chance to step back and look at their lives with new perspective. These experiences are built around health, community, and meaning. From fitness to focus, we will give you tools to see your life and your family through the lens of your deepest values.
"This is one of the best things I do for my mental health. My energy, calm, and focus in the days that follow each session are so clear that my wife and I have agreed that my weekly Dad Strength meetings are non-negotiable."
—Mick Higgins
Geoff is the founder of Bang Personal Training and the host of the Dad Strength Podcast. He has been featured in Vice, GQ, and T-Nation. He is an expert in behaviour design (he's a Tiny Habits certified coach) and functional exercise. And, of course, he's a dad.
Geoff designed Dad Strength as a way for men to take care of themselves—so that they can take better care of the people in their lives.
Through online calls, in-person meetups, and retreats, Geoff helps dads focus on their values, lean into their strengths, and become more present.
He lives in Toronto with his partner, Stephanie, and their son, who is full of beans.
