I've never before heard of IMC Lachlan, thanks for sharing about it - it seems like even IMC teaches Vipassana albeit with a different root teacher (not Goenka ji)?
About the Bootcamp-hyper-masculine part, that isn't the case.
Even during our Adhitthans, we're told to shift our posture if absolutely necessary - and that Adhitthan isn't about pain tolerance but about strong determination despite discomfort.
Many reported changing their posture 1-4 times during Adhitthans - I'm a stubborn soul who decided I wouldn't, no matter the pain. And that's probably why I had a "breakthrough" right in the first Adhitthan.
Also, IMC seems interesting, it has a lot of centres in India. I'll keep it in mind and give it a shot sometime Lachlan.
Thanks for reading and responding
