The 101s Relationship Dojo 2025: The Art of Conscious Connection

Dojo 2025 = relationship joy in 2026

So, what do you say, do you feel like making this the year that you embrace joy and connection in your relationships? And start leaving behind patterns that have ceased to serve you once and for all? Well, today you can join all the others who are joining 101s to say goodbye to tolerating toxicity, and hello to more relationship fulfilment:

The 101s Relationship Dojo is a year-long collective journey designed by 101s for those keen to cultivate more fulfilling, authentic, and conscious relationships. It’s a guided, moderated space where we explore how we show up in close relationships, where we discern what our part is and take responsibility for it, where we help each other ‘upgrade’ patterns that don’t serve us, and embody more intentional ways of relating.

What will we be doing in the dojo?

Here’s what we will do in the course:

• Meet for the monthly 4-hour in-person sessions to explore different aspects of relating (see below for examples)
• Discuss the topics asynchronously through a separate online discussion group that you can go in and out of based on your availability and curiosity
• Receive regular support and accompaniment through your peer support subgroup of 4–7 peers, where you discuss the dilemmas, learnings, and explorations that are coming up in your daily life
• Leapfrog in our relational work through coaching sessions to accompany your course experience. You receive two sessions for free!, from the 101s-endorsed relationship coaches directory (which includes the 101s themselves)

Content

We’ll dive into topics such as attachment styles, boundaries, archetypes, communication, power, play and humour. Through guided exercises, reflection, and group discussions, we’ll shine light on unconscious patterns, build healthier relational habits, and learn to stay connected—both to ourselves and others.

Here’s a glimpse of the kind of exploration journeys we have in store for the dojo:

• The mirror of relationships: how we see ourselves in others
• Boundaries & consent: where do I end and you begin?
• The shadow in relationships: uncovering projections and unmet needs
• Patterns & archetypes: roles we play and why
• Attachment styles: understanding relational needs

And it’s not all excavation and splitting hairs — we’ll celebrate wins, support each other through challenges, and share silly memes.

Each month, we’ll explore questions like: How do my past experiences shape my relationships today? How can I set loving boundaries? What role do I unconsciously play, and how can I choose differently?

How much will it cost?

We believe in transparency: the actual cost of running this dojo is between €10,000 and €12,000 annually.

So, the monthly payment you are looking at will be a sliding scale within the range of €40 to €80, based on your income and other relevant factors. You are also welcome pay more, to support others who can’t afford the entire price.

You will receive a discount if you pay the entire year at once. And the minimum duration you can pay in advance is three months.

A note for feminist men

Hey, how are you? But, more importantly, where are you? We wonder how surprised you are if we tell you that, again and again, the people interested in working on their relationship skills, communication, awareness of how trauma impacts us and others, and so on, are by and large women. Which is ironic, because the people that need it the most, if we are to work towards a more just world, are men!

So, especially if you think feminism is the way forward, here’s a serious question: what are you going to do to help rebalance this equation? Join the dojo? Send this link to your male friends? Organise some events yourself on these topics?

Whatever it is, let’s go! Let’s make the steps right now towards the kinds of societies we yearn for.

Experts

It’s good to know that the 101s, apart from organising and facilitating the space, will be learning and exploring alongside you. Even though we have a few years thinking deeply about these topics, we don’t pretend to be experts.

Power

At the same time, we acknowledge that, as facilitators of this space, we have a role and a position of power. We will do our best to honor the trust you set in us and maintain a good working relationship and healthy boundaries. For example, we will share a bit less than everyone else, and maintain a reasonable separation of personal and dojo relationships.

Calendar

The 4-hour monthly sessions are on the last Saturday of the month, from 10:00 to 14:00, in Barcelona. (But, if we receive enough interest, we might also start an online relationship dojo — so, if it’s your case, make sure to let us know you’re interested!)

• 25th October
