Survive the Wild 120 Hr Course with Survival Academy
The 120 hours survival course with Jungle Survival Academy in Bandhavgarh is an intensive training program designed to teach individuals the fundamental survival skills necessary for thriving in the wild.Throughout the course, participants will learn how to create and maintain shelter, start and maintain a fire, purify water, find and identify food sources, navigate, and defend themselves against potential threats.
Our expert instructors are special forces veterans, who provide personalized guidance and training to ensure that participants can practice and master the skills necessary for survival in a jungle environment.
Whether you’re an experienced adventurer or a first-time survivalist, our course is designed to challenge and equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive in the wilderness.
Surviving in the jungle for 120 hours can be an intense and transformative experience, but it can also prepare individuals for the unpredictable future ahead. Here are a few ways how:
Developing survival skills: Surviving in the jungle requires individuals to develop crucial survival skills such as shelter building, fire-making, and water purification. These skills can be applied to any situation, making individuals more self-sufficient and better prepared for any disaster that may come their way.
Building resilience: Surviving in the jungle is not easy, and it requires a great deal of mental and physical resilience. Learning to push past physical and emotional barriers can help individuals build resilience and become better equipped to handle challenges in both their personal and professional lives.
Navigating uncertainty: The jungle is unpredictable, and surviving in such an environment requires individuals to learn how to navigate uncertainty. This skill can help individuals better adapt to changes in their personal and professional lives, making them more agile and better prepared to handle the unexpected.
Becoming self-aware: Surviving in the jungle requires individuals to become more self-aware and develop a better understanding of their own strengths and weaknesses. This insight can help individuals identify areas for personal and professional growth, leading to a more fulfilling and successful life.
A step towards environmental sustainability: As the earth is warming up and natural disasters become more frequent, individuals need to be more mindful of their impact on the environment. Learning how to survive in the jungle can help individuals understand the importance of conservation and sustainability, inspiring them to make more environmentally friendly choices in their daily lives.
By living a minimalistic lifestyle during their time in the wilderness, individuals learn to make do with less and to be more mindful of the resources they consume. This can lead to a greater appreciation for the earth’s finite resources and inspire individuals to make more sustainable choices in their daily lives. Furthermore, the skills learned during a survival course, such as water purification and sustainable food sourcing, can help individuals reduce their reliance on single-use plastics and other environmentally damaging products.
Overall, surviving in the jungle for 120 hours can be a life-changing experience that not only prepares individuals for the unpredictable future ahead but also helps them grow both personally and professionally.
