 A Rare Opportunity for Children...

The Tradition of Fire”

May 16 Registration Bonus:
Adults Participate Free!

 

Dear Friend and Fellow Nature Lover,

Human civilization was marked by the one discovery, fire.  It was used to cook food and make it safe.  It was used to prepare grains and make them digestible.

It let us reap the fruits of the earth and make the tools of mankind.

It was power, and was ritually passed from parent to child.

That, of course, has been lost and replaced with video games, chocolate bars, and potato chips.

My name is Alan Kaufmann.  I want to change that by reintroducing that passage to your child, and to yourself.

I will teach you and your child how to make fire using a bow drill (a primitive tool carved from wood), and things found in the woods.  I guarantee that you will make fire, have a fantastic experience learning how to do it, or money back.

 

Time and Place

  • 9 AM-11 AM

  • Beautiful Thorpe Park

  • May 28, 2011

You can leave early, once you have made fire.  The extended time limit is to give everyone a chance to make fire.  The exact amount of time that takes varies a lot by different people.

Who Absolutely Should Not Go

This seminar is physically active.  It will involve the constant use of the hands.  We will not be lifting or moving big objects, but you will be making a constant physical effort.

This class is good for children from the age of 7-12 with an accompanying adult.

Both adults and children must participate and be able to keep pretty good focus for the duration of the seminar.

Some carving is required, so you and your child should feel comfortable with learning how to hold a knife and carve with it.

If you or your child are extremely clumsy, then this seminar is not for you.

Your Requirements

Without exception, every 2 children must be accompanied by a supervising adult that is also participating in the seminar.  This adult must be at the seminar, and named at the time of registration.

You must provide a knife capable of doing some wood carving.  If you don’t have such a knife, I can sell you a high quality one at a tremendous, seminar only, discount.

My Absolute Guarantee

I want you to participate in this ancient human ritual with the absolute confidence that you will have a fantastic, raving good experience.  For that reason, I am guaranteeing that you will absolutely love this seminar, or I will give you every penny back!  You have nothing to risk.

May 16, Early Bird FREE Bonus

Register by May 16, and I will give you an exceptional Early Bird Bonus. Participating adults may attend for free.

After May 16, Adults will be charged the normal registration fee.

The Final Deadline for registration is May 20th.

 

Your Investment

I am an experienced woodsman and guide.  I am an alumni of the world famous Tom Brown’s Tracker School  (please google Tom’s name).  I also have a Master’s degree in forestry.

I have crept, crawled, and survived in all sorts of inhospitable climates, so that I could experience the boundless beauty of nature and test myself in the wilds.

Using my vast experience, I have trained hundreds of people in nature skills.

My private rate is $75 per hour per person. Teaching to you and your child normally cost you $300.

I am going to give you a killer deal, because I believe that learning to make a fire is a fundamental part of a child learning to grow into an adult.  Absolutely no one should go without it.

Your special deal: $37!  A savings of $263.

Remember, if you register by May 16, participating adults attend for FREE. After May 16, adults will be charged $37 each.

Yours in the Wilderness Tradition,
