Survival Craft

Class

SurvivalCraft is our new 2026 program designed to bridge the gap between our Basic Bushcraft Class and our Survival Course. This class blends the raw, essential skills needed to stay alive in an emergency with the refinement, efficiency, and practical comfort of traditional bushcraft. Students won’t just learn how to survive — they’ll learn how to thrive.

This course is delivered through classroom lecture, hands-on fieldwork, and realistic scenarios designed to test skills under pressure. Students will build knowledge, apply it in the field, and validate their abilities through controlled survival situations.

Course Description: SurvivalCraft teaches students to: • Build the essential foundation of real-world survival skills • Develop bushcraft techniques that improve efficiency and long-term comfort • Manage short- or long-term camp during emergencies caused by natural disasters, man-made incidents, or unexpected field situations • Transition from immediate survival to a secure, sustainable camp setup

What You'll Learn: Participants can expect instruction in: • Firecraft under stress and in adverse conditions • Shelter building using primitive and improved designs • Water procurement and purification methods • Tool use, maintenance, and safe field application • Navigation and movement strategies in challenging environments • Campcraft skills that support long-term comfort and efficiency • Emergency decision-making and survival mindset development • Field-expedient solutions for disaster or crisis scenarios

Who Should Attend: SurvivalCraft is ideal for: • Students who want more challenge than Basic Bushcraft but aren’t yet ready for advanced survival programs • Outdoorsmen and women seeking practical survival capability without sacrificing skill or technique • Individuals preparing for wilderness emergencies or disaster-response situations • Anyone who wants a deeper understanding of how bushcraft elevates survival
