About the Dojo

The word “dojo” translates as “place of the way/path.” “Relational Dojo” is a place for immersive, experiential learning of relational frameworks and skills.

Vision: We envision a world where people can effectively use relational skills to raise healthy families, deepen community, strengthen friendships, build regenerative workplaces, advance democratic systems, and contribute to planetary thriving.

Mission: As a platform, we invite hosts to hold experiential learning containers for a wide range of relational skills and frameworks. These groups form communities of practice which offer life-long growth, peer support, and friendship.

History: Relational Dojo (relationaldojo.org) was launched in 2026 as a merger of Starter Cultures’ Communication Dojo and Intentional Society’s Practice Dojo.

Gifting Culture: We intentionally practice more inclusive livelihood models. We do not exclude others based on economic status. All our sessions are free to participate in. We operate on a model of gifting; be it financial, intentional feedback, community building efforts, co-creation, or other creative ways you can see contributing. We invite you to give from a place of joy and solidarity. Our intention is to🍓cultivate a gifting culture 🍓 in this community. A culture that helps us to see value and abundance in all forms and shapes.
