  • Ernst & Soneke (17 March 2024)

    “We were on the 7 day Ranger Course as a family of 5 (2 adults; 3 children) It was not easy, but we really learned a lot. As a family it helped us to work together, help each other and emotionally supporting one another. We believe it is important to do the Ranger Course with your children, for they are our future generation and our children really need to be ready now more than ever to survive in all circumstances. This course will open your eyes in many ways and will really help you to appreciate more in many areas of your life. We want to give all thanks and glory to God Almighty (Jesus Christ) who helped and guided us through this life changing experience. Nothing is possible without God!”

  • Andries Potgieter (28 Maart 2023)

    ” This was a great experience and I overcame my fears and challenges on this course. Highly recommended for anyone that want to become completely efficient in survival “

  • Heidi-Carter Brown (25 September 2022)

    ” I arrived on the RANGER course with a suitcase and excitement and I left the course a changed, confident and completely self-relient person. I will be able to survive anywhere after this course and the instructor was patient, extremely knowledgable and have walked this journey with us all during the course. Absolutely life-changing course ! “

  • Deon Groenewaldt (16 October 2016)

    ” The survival ranger course was the highlight of my outdoor training career and every part of the course was well presented, relevant and easy to follow. I have grown tremendously as an outdoorsman in the 9-days that I have been on the course.”
