Many are burdened by years of conditioning that told them to “man up,” “suck it up,” and never ask for help and it’s hurting them and everyone who loves them.." Barry Jones is an internationally certified trainer in Nonviolent Communication (NVC) based in Yorkshire, England. His primary focus is working with men, helping them interrupt inherited patterns of disconnection and step into more grounded, present versions of themselves. Barry’s approach is rooted in his own journey. Like many men, he was conditioned to “man up” and suppress vulnerability, a path that led him through numerous struggles before he discovered NVC. He views this not as a story of being broken, but as evidence of how deeply conditioning shapes us, and how powerful it can be when unlearned. Barry teaches what he practices: that men do not need to be fixed, but rather seen, challenged with care, and supported in reconnecting with their deepest values. Through ManKind Rising, Barry offers workshops, coaching, and group spaces where men can drop the armour, sit in circle with one another, and learn to respond rather than react. He believes that when men commit to this inner work, they become more present partners and healthier role models, breaking cycles of pain for future generations. ### Related - [ **Norway 2027** (International Intensive Training) ](https://www.cnvc.org/learn/iit/2027-07-30-iit-norway) - [ **United Kingdom 2026** (International Intensive Training) ](https://www.cnvc.org/learn/iit/2026-07-27-iit-uk) - [ **ManKind Rising: The Five Shifts Programme.

The distance. The disconnection with your partner and children. And longs to be a father who is grounded and present. A partner who is open and listens. A man who lives true to his deepest values. Then, we might be a fit.” # Contact Barry Jones First name \* Last name \* Email Address \* Country \* United States Your Message \* Turnstile \* ![](https://www.cnvc.org/templates/yootheme/assets/images/consent_placeholder_map.svg) ![](https://www.cnvc.org/templates/yootheme/assets/images/consent_icon_openstreetmap.svg)OpenStreetMap service required to load this map. ![](https://www.cnvc.org/templates/yootheme/assets/images/consent_icon_openstreetmap.svg)OpenStreetMap service required to load this map.
