DYNAMITE
Explosive Ideas for a Bold New You
“I am no man, I am dynamite.”
Step into the provocative world of Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900), one of the most misunderstood yet profoundly inspiring philosophers of all time. DYNAMITE isn’t just a course—it’s a call to action. It’s a journey to challenge the norm, embrace the chaos, and craft a life of purpose, clarity, and strength.
What You’ll Discover
• The Will to Power: Harness your inner drive to create, thrive, and overcome.
• Master-Slave Morality and Ressentiment: Uncover how societal values shape your identity—and how to break free.
• The Death of God and the Rise of Nihilism: Explore what happens when old values collapse and new meaning must be forged.
• Modernity, The Last Man, and Overcoming Herd Mentality: Learn why comfort and conformity are the enemies of greatness
• The Ability to Forget: Discover the power of letting go and staying present.
• Apollonian vs. Dionysian Duality: Balance order and chaos to create a richer, more authentic life.
• The Camel, Lion, and Child: Navigate Nietzsche’s three stages of transformation to reclaim your power.
• The Übermensch: Rise above the herd and define your own path.
• Amor Fati and The Eternal Return: Embrace your life fully, as it is and as it could be.
• Self-Overcoming and Philosophy as a Way of Life: Push past limitations and live dynamically, boldly, and authentically.
Why Take This Journey?
This isn’t just about Nietzsche—it’s about you. His ideas are more relevant than ever in a world overwhelmed by conformity, distraction, and superficial values.
Through this journey, you’ll learn how to:
Break free from societal expectations.
Develop unshakeable clarity and purpose.
Turn challenges into opportunities for growth.
Cultivate resilience, creativity, and self-mastery.
Whether you’re new to philosophy or looking to deepen your understanding, DYNAMITE is designed to spark bold, transformative change.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. Although it may help you more quickly understand and process some of the key points in live sessions, our courses are accessible to anyone regardless of qualifications and academic background. There are no prerequisites to join the programme, and you do not need to have experience in a university setting. The course may, however, serve as useful preparation for higher levels of study.
-
No. Our courses are open to participants worldwide. All you need is a suitable device to access the live sessions and a good/reliable internet connection. A device with a good-sized screen (such as a laptop) is highly recommended as opposed to a mobile phone. You will also need a good grasp of spoken and written English to gain maximum benefit from the course.
-
It would be great if you could attend every live session, and that is the expectation, but don’t worry if you need to miss a session if life unexpectedly gets in the way. Each session is recorded for you to access in your own time afterwards.
-
In an ideal world, everyone would get involved and play an equal role. However, there will always be different strengths and personalities in a cohort. There is no expectation or demand for any individual to do anything they are not comfortable with. If you’re someone who feels more at ease taking a back seat in sessions, that’s totally fine—just let John know prior to the first session.
