About ONE WITH NATURE Wilderness Survival School
About ONE WITH NATURE Survival School
ONE WITH NATURE wilderness survival school provides world class wilderness survival, bushcraft training and adventure guiding for corporate clients and the general public. The company focuses on the development of your practical survival and bushcraft skills. Although there is an endless amount of wilderness survival information online, nothing can replace learning the skills in real life. Our goal is to help you realize these skills so you are equipped to use them outdoors whether it is a planned trip or an unexpected circumstance. ONE WITH NATURE helps you build Outdoor Life Skills, preparing you for various situations as well as bolstering your confidence of staying in the wild. These courses put the target on training you in skills that could potentially save your life during real world wilderness emergencies.
ONE WITH NATURE, based on Vancouver Island, Victoria, BC, where the harsh weather with rainfall averaging 78 inches a year, gives you an unique opportunity to practice survival skills in variable weather conditions. Vancouver Island has some of the most pristine and un-touched rainforests you have ever seen.
The corporation aims to be inclusive and presents activities for varying skill levels from first-timers to more seasoned outdoors people looking to be challenged and to refine their skills.
Helping people feel confident and comfortable in the wilderness is our main priority. Many of our trips (unless otherwise specified) require no previous outdoor skills or experience. We provide all the necessary training. Our course programs may also be customized to meet your specific training needs. If you live in a different city, we can come to an outdoor location near you and train your company's employees or you can come to us. For people who don’t have any equipment such as a tent, a backpack, etc., the company provides sales and rentals of necessary and practically tested wilderness survival and outdoor gear.
Our Mission
We believe that we are all part of nature and therefore it is only natural to be one with it. Nature is open and does not judge. Everyone, every age, every ability, can benefit from being harmonious with the outdoors. We do not need to tackle nature but rather realize that nature provides us with what we need; we just need to make the most of what it provides. By joining us we hope that you will have the opportunity to not only become more confident in the wilderness but to feel enjoyment while doing so. It is our pleasure to show you the stunning nature of the West Coast of Canada. Join ONE WITH NATURE for an unforgettable experience where you will both learn and get close to nature.
“True wilderness can still be found, but it’s hard to reach and dangerous when you get there.”
