Bushcraft Courses
Fundamental Bushcraft 2010
The Initiation
This course will equip you with a sound foundation of knowledge and the necessary ability to explore the art of Bushcraft. It is conducted entirely outdoors in a friendly campfire atmosphere and will go ahead in all weather. No previous experience is necessary, but a reasonable level of fitness is required. The syllabus has been carefully designed to introduce the widest range of techniques, while concentrating on the most important. The end result is self- reliance, closeness to nature and improved self- confidence in the outdoor.
Each skill is carefully explained and expertly demonstrated before you practice the technique for yourself. As new skills are acquired, the class is encouraged to apply them with plenty of time to practice. (You get out from Bushcraft only what you put in!) On the final day, there is a certified test, giving you the opportunity to apply skills learnt during the week in a challenging and realistic scenario.
