Survival Class 1 | Basics

The ancient knowledge of our ancestors


The basic techniques of survival

This course is for people who want to learn more about living and surviving in nature. By learning the basic techniques of survival, we gain confidence and security in situations where we are confronted with nature and all forms of life. We experience that nature is our home and provides us with everything we need to survive. No fight for survival, but a gentle introduction into new dimensions of experiencing nature and yourself.Different to the cliches of „eating worms and playing Rambo“, we teach actual survival techniques based on millennium old knowledge. To be precise, it is called Naked Survival, which is basically surviving without modern tools. That doesn’t mean that we run around naked and that there are no meals, on the contrary: being well-fed with delicious meals from our Schalklhof-kitchen and taking advantage of its surroundings enable us to approach the topic survival gently. We also provide warm showers and toilettes (girls and boys separated).
