“Our son has grown up as part of the Quiet Heart community over the past 7 years.  He has grown from a young boy into a young man through the guidance of the amazing mentors at Quiet Heart.  They say it takes a village, we love the Quiet Heart Village.”   –  Steve and Heather

This is the most advanced and challenging program that we now offer. Students will be trained in awareness, tracking, primitive and survival skills, shelter construction and acquiring food through team work in a small and intimate community. Registering students must be at least 13 years of age and possess some outdoor experience.

Students meet two Saturdays a month at the OWLE campsite to work with their own instructor on appropriately challenging projects.

On the free Saturdays Ancestral Skills students may choose to attend one of our monthly Ancestral Skills Outings or mentor younger students as a volunteer counselor in our OWLE programs. (Contact us at [email protected] for more information on mentoring at our OWLE programs.)
