In this Masterclass Series, Bruce Parry introduces you to the world of indigenous tribal culture. Two tribes especially are offering inspiring examples for the New Earth we wish to create. In these egalitarian cultures, competition, violence and hierarchy simply don’t exist.

Speaking at his home in Wales, UK, Bruce illustrates the core values that maintain a balanced society – at the heart of which is community, belonging, sharing, and the absence of powerplay. Women play a central role in maintaining this balance without excluding anyone. Embedded in these communities are profound healing rituals, which empower and re-connect people to themself, the earth and others. 

Through Bruce’s passion and direct experience you will gain insight into bringing about transition without fighting the old. You’ll hopefully be inspired by the wisdom of these cultures, and find your own unique way to contribute to the New Earth through creating harmonious culture.

Meet Bruce

Bruce Parry is a BBC documentary maker. His time spent with indigenous tribes changed his life profoundly. He was invited to take part in their core ceremonies and rituals, and observe their ways of life.

Masterclass Two

Learn from Indigenous Tribes to Create a New Earth

Masterclass Three

Heal Trauma with Tribal Child Raising

Bruce Parry talks about how raising children in indigenous tribes is a shared experience and how this creates a totally stress-free community. Depression and mental health issues are almost non-existent in indigenous communities.

Masterclass Four

Heal Yourself: Healing Society

Masterclass Five

Heal Yourself: Belonging to Community

Masterclass Six

Create a Society of Joy: Egalitarian Culture

Bruce's most recent documentary was about the Penan tribe living in Borneo, Malaysia. Staying with this tribe was a complete game changer. It was the first tribe that he met that really lived egalitarian, without any competition.

Masterclass Seven

Create Cultures of Peace: the Penan

Bruce vividly shares his experiences with the Penan people to give more insight into this utterly harmonious culture, and the tools and methodologies that we can learn from them.

Masterclass Eight

Create a New Paradigm: Feminine ‘Power’ & Decentralisation

Bruce Parry introduces us to another egalitarian culture: the Bengali people in the Congo. They have no leader, and competition is totally absent. It becomes more apparent that we do have the capacity to live without ‘status.’

Masterclass Nine

Maintain Community Balance with Non-Violence Interventions

Bruce Parry explores deeper into how the shift from a totally egalitarian way of life to our power-based way of life might have come about. He also describes how the Bengali people have an extremely non-violent way of disarming any power plays, should they arise.

Masterclass Ten

Begin Creating New Societal Narratives

Bruce shares that now we know it is possible to live an egalitarian way of life, despite it being far from where we are now. Let’s be inspired by these cultures to find ways to move towards new narratives for our society.

Masterclass Eleven

Begin to Make Societal Change ‘Within’

Bruce brings the focus back to your personal development and shows how this is the first step in making societal changes. We are all part of the problem if we keep on living in the current system.

Masterclass Twelve

Find New Ways to Connect Everyone

Bruce talks about inclusive change in this masterclass. The new world is for everyone, not only for us, the ‘enlightened’. If we really want to create a New Earth we should turn outwards and invite everybody back in.
