MULTIPLE DAYS COURSES
TYPICAL COURSE BREAKDOWN:
A typical survival course will focus on the key areas of survival which are: food, water, shelter, fire and orientation. The majority of the day will be spent collecting food, finding water, collecting resources in preparation for camp and correctly navigation through the terrain. Various activities will take place to ensure equal participation and exposure to more important, and exciting, things that we may discover along the way.
Finding a suitable location to set up camp will also be a priority, which will be a group effort. Once a suitable location has been chosen, the creation of our shelters and our campfire will begin, along with any night activities that may be planned. The following days will include more tool making and advanced foraging.

SURVIVAL COURSES
2-DAYS BASIC COURSE
This programme is meant for people, who want less psyco-physical tests, but still want to learn more about survival skills and test various survivival technicks. Activities do not differ much from 3-days demanding course, but here is provided some more food and comfort.
3-DAYS DEMANDING COURSE
This is our most popular field course and also our most recommended. The three day course will provide participants with knowledge of various areas of survival, as well as many opportunity’s to apply their newly learnt skills. Survivors will have to be mentally and physically hardy to endure whatever discomforts we may encounter. Sleeping in self made shelters in the presence of animals, unpredictable weather, food shortages and minimal equipment can prove to be a challenge. Fear not, together we shall overcome these obstacles!
4-DAYS ADVANCED COURSE
Advanced couse is for everyone who wants to improve already learned skills and learn more tuff and advanced techicks. Therefore participants have to have finished 3-days demanding course before. Emphasis is on development of sovereignty of every individual in surviving in wilderness. Participants will learn more details about friction fire, efficient shelters, wild eadible food, products from natural materials and much more.
8-DAYS EXTREME COURSE
For veteran survivors and real tough cookies, this course features similar activities to the three-day course albeit on a more advanced level. In this course, we place a strong emphasis on coexisting with nature and maintaining our physical and mental stability. The only prerequisite for attending this course is having previously completed a 3-day course, as well as having a thirst for raw primal experiences.
