1 Day – A Glimpse into Seasonal Living
Course Overview:
This single-day course is a rapid but immersive taste of what it means to live seasonally and smart—adapting shelter, movement, and water strategies to the long game of life outdoors.
Topics Include:
Seasonal shelters: bush camps, earth lodges, grass huts
Planning migratory routes: resources, hazards, and timing
Long-term water management systems
Building a self-reliant mindset for extended wilderness stays
Takeaway:
You’ll walk away with practical vision: not just how to survive a night, but how to plan and live for seasons to come.
Weekend – Tools for the Journey
Course Overview:
This weekend, we look at the skills and materials that let humans move across continents with nothing but knowledge and their hands. You’ll make tools, move fire, and build with what surrounds you.
Topics Include:
Advanced shelter systems: design for migration, stealth, and weather
Rocket stoves: efficient fire for long-term use
Carrying fire: preserving flame across miles
Primitive adhesives: resin-based glues from pine, sap, and stone
Cob basics and natural building techniques
Water system design: purification, flow, and storage
Takeaway:
These are the skills of people who once lived free and untethered across wild lands. You'll leave with a new relationship to heat, movement, and making.
5 Day – Total Immersion in Off-Grid Living
Course Overview:
This is the challenge and the craft. Over five full days, you’ll live the skills—constructing seasonal shelters, crafting tools, building water systems, and facing a real off-grid survival scenario. It’s not about testing your limits; it’s about expanding them.
Topics Include:
Bush camps, cob lodges, thatch roofs, cattail mats, and loom weaving
Fire mastery: rocket stoves, fire preservation, advanced resin glues
Water purification and large-scale storage
Off-grid living systems audit: shelter, fire, safety, hygiene
Use of grasses and natural materials for construction and utility
Survival challenge: living with the skills, off-grid, in real time
Atlatl and sling hunting: embodying ancestral patterns
Community through action: shared meals, shared efforts, shared fire
Takeaway:
You’ll leave more than skilled—you’ll leave transformed. This is advanced earth living: where ancestral knowledge, modern awareness, and personal growth come together in one immersive experience.
