We are now offering several pathways for grown-ups looking to connect more deeply with the natural world and to each other.
Cunning Coyotes
This workshop appeases our creative side and helps us get in touch with our playfulness. Together we challenge ourselves to explain and define exploratory dynamic learning so we can free ourselves from the four walls of the classroom and bring it outside.
We will learn how to set up and debrief any game or an activity in ways that will naturally excite and engage your students and have them begging for more.
Time: 9am-3pm
Saturday June 24th or Saturday July 8th
Coyote is the trickster, the sneaky teacher. This workshop is all about how you can harness your students natural passions to teach more effortlessly and have more fun. While providing you with strategies to document your journey along the way.
Making Fire
10am-1pm
Improve your fire making skills.
Gain confidence and competence.
In this workshop participants will spend half a day learning and practicing the fundamentals of fire.
We will discuss the history of fire, principles, safety, emergencies, material collection and then build fires.

Wise Owls
This workshop appeases our analytical side.
A 4 hour workshop covering two major areas of consideration when taking your class outside: risk management and environmental impact.
Arguably the most important skill in outdoor education, we will discuss the various components of risk management and complete our own assessments. Together we will dig into the edges of your comfort zone and developing scenarios that will help you feel more confident as an educator
Additionally, we will break down the aspects that make a good outdoor classroom, how to assess our classroom for safety and how to analyze our impact to the environment over time.
