School founder and instructor Tim MacWelch has been professionally teaching a wide variety of survival skills to the public since 1997. Before there were survival TV shows and before there were preppers, MacWelch has been teaching the best of survival skills to all who were willing to learn.

Is it better to hope for good luck… 

or to rely on good training?

Whether you are stuck in the wild or caught in a disaster, the only thing that you’ll always have with you is good training. And once you gain a working knowledge of wilderness and urban survival skills, your survival “tool kit”is always with you wherever you go.  Tim is a father and dads are responsible for the safety of their families.  Don’t be passive men!
