The 5-Minute Ritualist is a scientifically founded, flexible, time and labour saving method for memorising Masonic Ritual using short, regular, highly focussed learning sessions. 5-MR offers a friendly, helping hand right across the Masonic age and experience spectrum - particularly so for inexperienced members of the Craft, aspiring WMs and Brethren living with declining memory challenges. This 'working tool' based system is very easy to use; can be applied to any form of Masonic Ritual; caters for 'Local Workings' variations and includes a combined 'rehearsal and prompting' tool that can safely be used anytime, anyplace, anywhere because only a Freemason can make any sense of it. This A4 sized book includes three 'ready to memorise' Workings Plans plus all the bespoke stationery for readers to make their own DIY trial of a Ritual working of their choosing. Fully illustrated, the book takes the reader on a journey from the Ritual words on the page to the formation of long-term memory, either shallowly or deeply processed. Very simply, the system overcomes all the recognised barriers to learning including the lack of time and not understanding archaic language content.
Ring bound paperback, 64 pages, highly illustrated in colour, 210 mm x 297 mm

What others are saying about the 5 Minute Ritualist:
"As WM, I conducted the Mark Master Mason Ceremony of Advancement for a new candidate. I am delighted to say that the fears I had of learning the ritual were allayed and, although not perfect by any means, I was surprised how well I did, which was in no small measure due to your learning aid.
I must admit that I found it somewhat difficult at first, but then "fell in" to the system and then got into the flow of it which was a tremendous help.
I am so pleased that I raised the point with you, that I was struggling with my learning, and you came up with your work which I am so grateful and indebted to you for."
W.Bro. Norman E Jones PJGD"At the beginning of my Masonic journey, I was fortunate to have Kim take me under his wing and introduce me to his system of learning, remembering and presenting ritual. From the answers at my Passing in 2011, to proudly going through the Chair of King Solomon in 2017 and installing my successor with the extended Inner Workings, I have performed ritual with an air of confidence that has surpassed all expectations of myself. I used the same system with my daughter when she was learning lines for a school production and she was pleasantly surprised how quickly she could learn, recite and more importantly retain the script. I thoroughly recommend The 5-Minute Ritualist to all those seeking an alternative method of learning, and committing to memory, our ancient ritual."
W.Bro. Paul Luff PM"I am very pleased with this book. I have only had it half a day and can see how it will enhance my journey through Masonry"
Peter Nightingale"Congratulations on the book - just got it, and it looks good. I hope it will help me!"

Kim March was born in Hastings, East Sussex in 1955 and was brought up in the hurly-burly of a large council estate. He attended Hastings Grammar School for Boys leaving at 16 to join the Metropolitan Police Cadets. In his early 20s he left the police service to take his first print media job. This change revealed an innate creative, entrepreneurial drive, providing the impetus for a successful career in niche marketing services and educational publishing. He married wife Sue, in 1979 who continues to listen to his ideas and generally put up with him! He is a self-confessed creative thinker and has been blessed to bring several of his educational concepts, both Masonic and non-Masonic, into published reality. He has worked with a wide range of domestic and international corporate clients, speaking at major marketing conferences. Having sold his business interests in 1999, he and Sue relocated to the Shropshire Hills. As a keen hill walker, he became a trustee of a struggling children’s outdoors adventure charity. In 2012 both he and the charity won two social entrepreneur awards for the successful implementation of his recovery business plan. Kim was Initiated into The Longmynd Lodge No 4877 in 2001; joining the Salopian Lodge of Charity No 117 in 2006, serving as Master in 2013. Challenging health circumstances resulted in a short break from Freemasonry in 2016, but he stayed in touch with the Craft by drafting The 5-Minute Ritulist – an easy to follow and proven ritual memory system. He is presently a member of Powis Lodge No 7355 (Welshpool; North Wales) a Lodge he previously visited on numerous occasions, sometimes walking the 23 miles from home. He is also a member of Sabrina Lodge No 4158 (Shrewsbury; Shropshire) serving as WM in 2025/26. Now retired, he and Sue have taken to exploring the great outdoors further afield, including trips to the Antipodes, South America and Africa For the 7 years to 2025, Kim crafted and designed the Friends trilogy of mentoring books. These are not written in an academic style but rather in a reader friendly, general interest, story-telling format. The books also observe the protocol of maximum information; minimum amount of space – they all move at pace to keep boredom at bay! The Master Mason’s Friend topped the best seller list in January 2026. Kim also gives several popular Masonic talks including a medieval themed demonstration of his ritual memory system and the demystification of the various Craft ceremonies.
