Picture for a moment our indigenous ancestors.  People living in tune with nature.  People with deep knowledge of the seasons, animals, plants and rocks.  Humans able to support themselves and their families only with the knowledge in their minds and their muscles - the result of thousands of years of living with the land.  This collective genius is one definition of bushcraft. Cool eh?  Overwhelming..... perhaps.​  

It's a big subject.  

In our experience, there is a lifetime of study in any one of the subjects that make up 'bushcraft';  wild food, tracking; primitive technologies, navigation, fire, the list goes on.  In reality, however, most of us don't aspire to become a modern-day hunter gatherer.  Some topics grab us and call out to us as important.  This is the best way to get started - go with where your passion lies and follow that trail as far as it takes you.  

In short, we can mentor you in any of the major subjects of bushcraft.  Some topics require more practical input than others and will take more hands-on effort from the learner - more 'dirt time'.  Other subjects benefit from book study and guidance from us on where to focus your research.  We'll tailor a programme thats right for the subject, right for your skill level and right for your learning style.  Having taught 1000's of students over the last 20 years helps us shortcut common mistakes, makes learning more efficient and gives us a unique perspective so that we can help you.

Below is a broad list of questions that you can ask yourself.  If you answer yes or maybe to any of these, there's a good chance that our mentoring service could work for you. ​
