Understand your origin – get close to nature

ONE WITH NATURE Survival School

Learning wilderness survival and bushcraft skills builds more than outdoor ability — it fosters critical thinking, resilience, and readiness for the unexpected. Whether you’re hiking, paddling, or navigating life’s uncertainties, these skills can make the difference between vulnerability and confidence. At ONE WITH NATURE Survival School, we focus on hands-on learning, muscle memory, and mental preparedness — because in a world full of unpredictability, it’s better to be ready for the worst so you can handle anything else.

Self-Reliance Starts Here.

DON’T RELY ON GEAR – RELY ON SKILL

More Than Survival – A Mindset for Life

At ONE WITH NATURE, we don’t just teach survival techniques — we shape a way of thinking, living, and responding to the unexpected. Our programs are rooted in real-world application, not theory. We believe true capability comes from hands-on experience, not from watching videos or collecting gear.

You can watch someone play piano for 100 hours — but you still won’t play a single note until you put your hands on the keys.
Survival is no different. Skills come from doing.

Google Review by Lanaya Hoogenboom

“One With Nature Survival School is a fantastic company that offers a truly immersive and educational experience in the art of wilderness survival. During our time with the school, my family and I learned about essential survival priorities and techniques that are crucial for anyone spending time in the great outdoors. The instructors at One With Nature Survival School are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about their craft. They provided hands-on training on using knives and creating notches, which are essential skills for building shelters, crafting tools, and making fire in a survival situation. The instructors took the time to ensure that each participant understood the techniques and practiced them until they were proficient. The school also emphasized the importance of respecting and connecting with nature, teaching us how to minimize our impact on the environment while still being able to utilize its resources for survival. This holistic approach to survival training sets One With Nature Survival School apart from other similar programs. Overall, my experience with One With Nature Survival School was both educational and empowering. I walked away with a newfound confidence in my ability to survive in the wilderness and a deeper appreciation for the natural world. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to enhance their outdoor skills and connect with nature on a deeper level.”
