Knights Without Armor (KWoA)
An Open Men's Circle in Waltham, MA
What Is KWoA?
Knights Without Armor (KWoA) is an open men's circle affiliated with The ManKind Project USA (MKP). Our mission is to develop better men through self-awareness, inner healing, and personal growth. We do so by creating a safe, powerful container in which we explore our emotions and the unconscious shadows that keep us from living the full, authentic lives to which we aspire.

Our Philosophy
We believe that lasting personal change can only occur by first coming to understand what is driving our counterproductive behaviors. Achieving this understanding is our primary focus at KWoA.
Many support groups promote sharing, empathy, encouragement, and taking responsibility for one's actions. Atlhough well-intentioned, we believe that these methods are ineffective at creating lasting change for a man as long as he remains unaware of the underlying causes of his destructive behaviors. In the absence of such awareness, this "support" often serves to implictly reinforce the man's self-limiting beliefs. This obstructs him from discovering his truth and, from that place, transforming his life.

Visitor Instructions
KWoA is open to all men (and women) visitors with advance notice.
To request attendance, email Peter at visitors@kwoa.org before 3pm on the Tuesday prior to the night you wish to attend. Special meetings are organized via Meetup — for these events, signing up via Meetup is sufficient for requesting attendance.
Arrive on time, plan to stay for the full three hours, and bring $8 dollars to contribute to our weekly room rental fee. We suggest bringing a bottle of water (no food or other drink is allowed in the chapel).
First time visitors are asked to familiarize themselves with the reading materials below prior to attending.
Note: Full voting members are permitted to deny visitor requests, although in practice this rarely occurs. While we generally recommend the ManKind Project's New Warrior Training Adventure to visiting men, there is no requirement for men to do the weekend in order to continue visiting the group or to become a member.
Date and Time

KWoA meets every Wednesday from 7-10pm. Very occasionally we will cancel (e.g. due to year-end holidays), or change the location for a specific evening.
