You felt something in that circle. Membership is where that work continues.
Men's Work, TX is a brotherhood of men doing the work most men avoid — through self-
defense, the labyrinth, and a group that actually shows up. If the class meant something
to you, this is the next step.
From $50/month · Pay what fits your life · Cancel anytime
The self-defense class you came to is one Saturday a month. It's real, and it matters — but it's the front door, not the house.
Membership is the rest of it. The curriculum we call the labyrinth. A group of men who meet regularly and know your name. Journaling prompts by text that keep the work going between gatherings. And the monthly class, every month, with Jason.

The heart of membership is an eight-part journey through the territory most men spend their lives avoiding. We walk it together, one topic at a time, over a semester.
That's the map. We won't tell you what happens when you walk it — because it's different for every man, and because the men who've been through it will tell you the same thing: you can't understand it from the outside. You have to be in the room.
Our semesters run fall (September through November) and spring (February through April). Winter and summer, we rest and give that time to our families. If you join before a semester begins, you start at the beginning and walk the full labyrinth with your cohort from the first topic. If you join mid-semester, you step into a group that's already moving — and that's just as valuable. You learn this work by doing it alongside other men, not by waiting for a perfect starting line. Whenever you join, you're in. We'll tell you exactly where the group is when you arrive.

Get Started$100 / month — covers a full membership for a man who can't afford one
Some men want to give beyond their own membership. Sponsoring a man covers a full membership for someone who couldn't otherwise walk through the door. Add it to your own membership, or give it on its own — you don't have to be a member to sponsor one. 100% of a sponsorship funds another man's membership.

Founding rate · 9 of our first 150 · Cancel anytime
We're a nonprofit, and we never turn a man away over money. $100 (Sustainable) is the true cost of membership. $50 (Subsidized) is there if the full rate is a barrier right now — a supporting brother covers the difference. $150 (Supportive) covers your own membership and helps subsidize another man's. Same membership at every tier — nothing is held back. Pick what honestly fits your life; you can change it anytime.
Anytime. No contract, no cancellation fee, and you can move between tiers whenever your situation changes. As a founding member, today's rates stay available to you as long as your membership stays active — even after we raise prices for later members. If you cancel and rejoin down the road, you'll pay whatever the current rates are then.
It depends on when you join. Semesters run fall (Sep-Nov) and spring (Feb-Apr). Join before a semester starts and you begin at the beginning with your cohort. Join mid-semester and you step in where the group is — the work isn't linear the way a textbook is, and men learn as much from being in the room as from the sequence. Either way, we'll tell you exactly where things stand when you arrive.
No. It's not group therapy and it's not a fight club. It's a brotherhood doing structured inner work together, led by men who hold space and ask questions. If you need clinical care, we'll always tell you so — this runs alongside that, not instead of it.
A monthly class, regular cohort sessions during the semester, and a couple of minutes a day with the journaling texts. It's designed for men with jobs and families, not men with endless free time.
