Wilderness Immersion

The TrackersTEAMS Wilderness Immersion program fully immerses you in ancient ways, while also discovering how traditional skills and wisdom can help us transition to a culture of sustainability. Our curriculum leads to livelihood connected to the land and the seasons.

Seasonal Rounds

Our program runs by seasonal terms. Understanding how the seasons can shape our lives is the first step to connection with the natural world. While core tracking and naturalist skills are woven through the entire year, each seasonal term has a specific focus.

Schedule of Seasonal Terms...

Fall Term Wilderness survival and harvest of local wild foods
Winter Term Traditional folk craft and boat building
Spring Term Wild edible and medicinal plants and permaculture design
Summer Expeditions 10 weeks rites of passage expeditions

Core Studies

The heart of our program is our core studies in the arts of the ancient tracker. Every seasonal term is threaded with this developing awareness and how we build a community connected to the natural world. Also included in our course are studies in business planning and physical conditioning, training both mind and body for a healthy livelihood.

A Village of Learning

Similar to a martial arts school, we benefit from having beginning, intermediate and advanced students working together. You learn the best when you also teach the skill. Oral tradition was an essential part of hunter-gatherer culture, in TrackersTEAMS we use this same natural legacy to help people learn faster and more efficiently.
