The Immersion

Awaken your relationship with nature on a 9-month journey through The Immersion at Wilderness Awareness School. This program dives into naturalist studies, self-discovery, wildlife tracking, permaculture, community leadership, natural heritage, wilderness survival, and bird language.

Imagine yourself after nine months of connecting with the natural world on physical, intellectual, and emotional levels, after expanding your comfort zone—leaving you capable of so much more than you've ever imagined. The power of The Immersion lies in the integration of these subjects as an immersive experience.

Students finish this training with an end-of-year rite of passage, resulting in a greater understanding of their purpose and a lucid awareness of their passions and vision for their lives.
