Rewrite your story.
Reclaim your direction.

A six-day immersive retreat blending storytelling, neurobiology, Andean–Amazonian ancestral knowledge and wild male community energy — for those ready to redesign the life they're living.

01The Concept

Your life is a story you are telling yourself.

ROAR is a hybrid: part creative workshop, part transformation retreat, part narrative engineering lab. We work with the same tools used to build films — character, conflict, structure, arc — and apply them to the script you're living inside.

Change the narrative, change the reality it produces.

02The Method

Four phases of flow.

Every transformation moves through the same architecture. We guide you through it deliberately, in sequence, with practice.

  1. I

    Resistance

    Ego & emotion

    We meet what stops you. The defenses, the loops, the stories you protect even as they shrink your life.

  2. II

    Letting Go

    Where & when

    We name the grip. We practice the release — not as theory, but in the body, in the breath, in the room.

  3. III

    Flow

    Ecstasy

    The state where the new pattern becomes possible. Movement, attention, and creation collapse into one.

  4. IV

    Recovery

    Integration & rest

    We anchor what shifted. You leave with structure, not euphoria — a new architecture you can live inside.

03Foundation

Grounded in science. Translated into practice.

01

Neuroplasticity

The brain reorganizes its wiring in response to experience. New input creates new patterns — at any age.

02

Beliefs shape perception

What you believe becomes what you notice. What you notice becomes what you feel and how you act.

03

Narrative engineering

Stories are infrastructure. Identify the script, edit the script, change what the script produces.

03 · Parallels

Modern neuroscience meets Andean–Amazonian knowledge.

What labs are mapping today, communities in Bolivia have been living for generations. We hold both traditions with respect — using each to illuminate the other.

  • Neuroplasticity

    Andean practices of repetition, ritual and embodied attention — patterning the nervous system through rhythm, breath and place.

  • Belief & perception

    Amazonian traditions read perception as relational — what you perceive is shaped by the body, the land and the people you stand with.

  • Narrative engineering

    Bolivian oral tradition treats story as a working tool of identity — the community version of rewriting the script.

  • Self-regulation

    Ancestral body practices — posture, breath, contact with earth — as a vocabulary for nervous-system regulation.

04The Encounter

Five days. Off-grid. Fully present.

Masía Ventanell, a remote estate in Barcelona. No screens. No noise. The container is small and deliberate — physical, mental, and emotional exploration in tight rhythm with the four phases of flow.

  • 01No phone. No internet.
  • 02Movement & breathwork
  • 03Storytelling exercises
  • 04Group dynamics
  • 05Altered states of attention
  • 06Ancestral practice
A note from us

We are not guides, shamans, or gurus; we are men in service, walking together in the strength of vulnerability for the good of the community.

After years of denying our roots, the sacred potential to push ourselves to exhaustion, knowing exactly what to do to transform our lives but choosing self-sabotage, choosing to move forward under a deep fear shaped by family patterns of rejection, abandonment, humiliation, betrayal, and injustice, it was in that dark and twisted place that we recognized the true challenge: to look fear in the eyes.

And instead of "healing" it, we learned a way to integrate it into our lives.

We don't have a magical solution or a definitive formula — but that experience gifted us interesting tools, ancient and ancestral yet also new and innovative, that, when combined with the energy of the tribe, we deeply believe can help you remember and embody your most powerful essence.

05Self-Inquiry

The five questions.

Before you arrive, sit with these. They are the spine of the week — and the spine of the work after it.

  • 01

    What is your story about?

    What are you actually looking for? What story are you trying to write — and for whom?

  • 02

    Where does it take place?

    In the body? The mind? The work? The relationship? Locate the stage.

  • 03

    When does it happen?

    In the present? Replayed from the past? Or borrowed from a future imagined?

  • 04

    Who is the protagonist?

    Who is the version of you the story keeps casting? Why do they fight?

  • 05

    What actions define it?

    Strip away the talk. What do you actually do — and what would the new script require?

06The Facilitators

Practitioners. Not gurus.

We don't sell magic. We share tools we've used on ourselves — refined across decades in film, in business, in the body, in long inquiry.

01

Rigo Bellott-Machi

Film director · neurobiology

Award-winning filmmaker, theatre practitioner. Builds the narrative engineering frame from 22+ years inside story.

02

Engineer and film producer. Custodian of Andean–Amazonian knowledge and alternative therapy work.

03

Billy Gallego

Maieutic coach · brand strategist

Architect and entrepreneur. Holds the personal-inquiry container and the structure for what you build after.

04

Jamie Beron

Movement · breathwork

Vinyasa, Jivamukti and meditation teacher. Anchors the body — the place every transformation has to land.

07The Place

Masía Ventanell, Barcelona.

Stone walls. Hills. Silence. A historic masia in Barcelona, designed to remove the noise so the work can actually happen.

08What you leave with

No promises of a new life. Tools to build one.

/01

Clarity

Less noise in the head. A clearer read on what is actually yours and what isn't.

/02

Reset

Patterns that have been running on autopilot — interrupted, examined, rewritten.

/03

Direction

Reconnection with what you're actually moving toward, and why.

/04

Narrative

A new internal script — one you authored, not one you inherited.
