Marco Priori lives in the woods with Natural Survival tecniquesNatural Survival & Tracking School is lead by Marco Priori, an EU Adv. Master Instructor and Responsible for International Relationship of the Italian Federation of Survival (FISSS). Marco Priori’s is the only Italian school that specifically teaches the art of Animal Tracking and Natural Survival™.

 

WHAT IS NATURAL SURVIVAL™?

It is a natural movement based on four fundamental pillars. They are the main aspects which your relationship with Nature should be based on:

  • Spiritual Search of a balance with Nature
  • Ability of reading the land (geomorphology, wind, sounds, …) and animal tracking
  • High performance in primitive survival techniques
  • Knowledge of Natural Sciences

Located in the Central Appennini Mountains (Italy) , less than two hours away from Rome, the school is the perfect place to explore also the wide Bushcraft world in a semi-survival to a full survival situation in Nature. In this place everything we do has the goal to keep the pureness of Nature untouched.

During the year we offer a path of 5 increasing steps of knowledge, skills and awareness and a one-week long full-immersion class. This path leads the students back to their personal balance with Nature. They discover soon that this balance and ethical approach is mantained in their daily lives. Starting form long weekend courses at the beginning, we keep students in the wild for more than a week during advanced stages of education. The primitive skill’s courses are the foundation of what we teach in the Natural Survival & Tracking classes. How to start a fire with wood sticks, filter dirt water to have drinkable water.  How to built shelters in the woods, what plants to use for edible or medicinal uses.  And how to make a rope with plant fibers or make a usable knife with flint are just few of the abilities the student will learn and master class after class. Natural Sciences and Geology are the foundation of the tracking classes. Camouflage and silent moving, leading to invisibility along with the ability of reading animal tracks lead the students to a different lever of perspective that allows students to get close to wildlife. In our school thecniques and skills are only instruments for the main goal: get closer to Nature, creating a connection with Her and bring it into our daily lives.
