Join a flourishing Edmonton men’s group and build real momentum through brotherhood, accountability, and shared growth.
Cities and counting
This is a weekly circle for men who want to show up with more integrity, purpose, and support—alongside brothers committed to the work.
City: Edmonton | Captain(s): Daniel/Troy
Edmonton has two active men’s circles connected to the Arka Brotherhood network — Moose Squad and Otter Squad. We meet weekly to get honest, to receive feedback and challenge, and to show up as better men — in circle and outside of it.
Whether you’re on the Southside near Whyte Ave, in the River Valley neighbourhoods, out in the West End, or anywhere across the city, there’s a squad close to you. Edmonton men are doing the work weekly — honesty, accountability, brotherhood. The kind that ripples through the rest of your life.
If you’re ready for a men’s group where the bullshit stops at the door, contact us below to chat with one of Edmonton’s Captains!
Daniel
My men's work journey started in April 2024. I was burned out and knew something had to change. I found an Arka men's group online, signed up for an open-house, and sat in circle with other men exploring many of the same things I was. It was a powerful night, and I knew I had found my community.
Within six months, I knew I wanted to lead. In January 2026, I took over as Captain of the group I joined — Moose Squad. We sit in circle, say hard things, support and challenge each other, and look out for one another. I bring presence and experience forged from the challenges life has brought me. It's a relentless curiosity to understand that underpins my leadership in circle — and it's what keeps me pushing the edges of myself and the group.
If that's the kind of group you want to go battle with, Moose Squad has a seat for you. My squad meets Monday nights, from 6pm to 9pm at the Box Haus on 105th, just North of Whyte Ave.
Troy
I'm a father, a partner, a friend and spiritual human being having a life experience. I joined Arka 3 years ago and have been committed to fostering meaningful growth for men in my community ever since. I believe in the power of authentic connection and self discovery. Helping men find their unique spark and building a community centered around support. I am passionate about helping men do the work that is needed in order to thrive and explore their full potential.
My squad is outdoors around a fire pit, Tuesday nights 6-9pm at Victoria Park from May to October.

Each week, men gather in a confidential space—either in-person or online...
At Arka Brotherhood Edmonton, our weekly, action-focused circles are designed...
Our community is guided by The Code of the Conscious Warrior designed by our founder Phil T. Mistlberger. It is a 14-point code of conduct that reflects the values of our brotherhood and provides a solid foundation to live by.
Read the Code
“This brotherhood has changed my life in many ways. I’ve learned a lot about self-awareness, compassion, accountability, and trust.”
“It’s so much deeper and impactful than I ever expected. I didn’t realize how much I needed the influence and connection of other conscious men.”
“I have been able to stay off of porn, engage in relationships with more energy, and create structure with consistency in my career goals. I’m connected and accountable to the growth I want in my life.”
“I can bring any issue or obstacle to these men and they will hold space, listen, get curious and challenge me to grow.”
“I’ve lost weight, started running, and begun to develop my own business. I’ve overcome a lack of purpose and turned a contentious relationship with my father into a nourishing and rewarding relationship.”
“Since joining the Brotherhood I have grown in every way possible. I have started two successful businesses and I am actually allowing myself to follow what my heart and soul want to do.”
“I’ve become a better leader, feel more confident and powerful, redefined my identity in true masculinity (rather than performative masculinity), healed my relationships with other men, and learned to identify and train leaders around me.”
“I’ve never been so vulnerable with any group of men in my life. I no longer play small, and I’ve found the strength to express my truth.”
