Full survival training – 2 days

Classes are performed in a practical way. Course participants take on the lost tourists. Firstly, they will have to familiarize themselves with survival techniques then perform task, which confirms their preparation and knowledge of the survival activities. The first day of the course is conducted on-site in the “survival base”; built of improvised methods accepted in our latitudes.

It begins with lectures on the psychology of survival and the development of adequate action attitudes in crisis situations.

The psychology of survival will be discussed on the basis of the most interesting survival cases that took place in the world. Another lecture point will present the S.T.O.P. PLAN. system. Lecturers will discuss with you principles of the practical situation of each survival. Then you will learn about the latest equipment and find out what exactly should be selected for various survival activities and emergency situations.We will talk about knives and how to select them, based on most models most commonly used in survival activities available on the Polish market. Everyone will have the opportunity to test top models and to answer the question which one to choose. We have in our collection a few dozen survival knives and we tested more. Hence, we have a vast knowledge of work with these tools.

The whole lecture will, of course, be combined with practical classes on techniques to start fire. From the preparation of tinder; feather sticks; and hearth to methods of starting a fire using many types of flints the highest quality available on the Polish market (BCB, MVH, LMF, Exotac).

You will learn the examples of the different types of flints and which one to choose for your type of activity field. In addition, we show how to start a fire using improvised means such as flares, ammunition, chemicals, etc.

During the training you will eat military rations with a heater, which will be your supply of food during training – such a piece of equipment is also justified because during natural disasters just such food will be provided to cut-off areas. It is worth to get familiar with this and learn how to use them.

At the training we focus on a few key elements. One of them is the alarm signal. You will learn how to call for help in any conditions. We teach you how to use the sun and heliograph, how to do it at night, how to prepare campfire lights. The full list of topics that will be presented at the training can be found in the table below. Each of them will be carried with you in real terms in real time. This is our greatest quality. On the second day you will know the ins and outs of navigating through field objects and compass. We will teach you to determine azimuths and find your way in virtually all directions. Navigation module in our training is very developed and takes several hours. We will learn about the myths of navigation that in fact don’t work and on methods which are sure-fire in all emergency situations.

We will learn to set directions based on the sun, natural field objects, and build improvised compass. We conduct all the elements of navigation in a practical way.

Then you will gain knowledge of how to filter and purify water from any natural source.

Exclusively on our course, you will boil water in the empty food package and weather-proof jacket. During water filtration classes, students will get acknowledged with carbon and mechanical filters of known manufacturers. You will also get to know how to treat the water with potassium permanganate, iodine and water treatment tablets.

After the treatment water will be consumed.

Participants will be trained in the field of emergency call and rescue signaling in the open air.

We will learn how to build a signaling campfires, their configuration and signinficance in real survival situations.

We suggest our training for all persons that spend time actively in the field: journalists working in inflammatory regions of the world, pilots, travelers, skiers, mountaineers, off-roaders, and those who want to increase the level of their security through knowledge and practice.

We are the only such a method; in the Europe to get to know real emergency survival systems and procedures – we do not deal with bushcraft or relax in the fresh air and nature.

When you break a leg during an alpine ski trip the only thing you need is to get home as soon as possible . The equipment, which we will teach you to choose to the situation may save the your and your loved ones’ life.

During registration for the training you will learn what to take with yourself to the training, what is important and what will be secured for you –  if you do not have it.
