For anyone who has an interest in bush craft, wilderness survival skills, developing bush confidence and a personal connection to natureTaking things right back to basics, we teach the skills necessary to go into the wilderness and draw all of our needs from nature. By directly engaging in nature for our very survival we make it relevant to us. This inspires a passion within us to learn more. Through a deeper understanding of the natural world we can gain a sense of our place within it and can develop a very real sense of belonging.
