At Arcturus Primitive Skills Institute, we offer survival training that’s built for real-world emergencies—not theory. Our courses immerse students in hands-on wilderness survival, where you’ll learn to build natural shelters, make fire without matches, navigate without GPS, and purify water from wild sources. We go deep into edible and medicinal plant identification, teaching you how to safely forage and apply regional plants for food, healing, and long-term resilience. Our preparedness training includes grid-down survival scenarios, where you’ll operate without power, communication, or supply chains—developing the mindset and skillset to stay capable under pressure. For those ready to go further, we offer advanced survival training, as well as focused intensives in knot tying, primitive firecraft, and other mission-critical skills. Whether you’re preparing for backcountry emergencies or systemic collapse, APSI delivers the training that sharpens your edge and forges real capability.
