If
you're a person who frequently goes hunting, camping, hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, cross-country skiing and/or spends
huge amount of time off the road
and in remote areas? Do you
take long distance journeys
often to exotic places?
Are you given tasks to accomplish in an agency or organization that
rendering humanitarian relief, emergency assistance and rescue? Are you
involved in the military or
plan to join the military?
Has it ever crossed your mind to
take some basic
wilderness survival
training classes but you just didn't know where to look for
such a program?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then SOS Italia-USA is for YOU!
Our programs are NOT crash courses, we teach "strictly the basics". As our goal is to provide you the best possible training at an affordable price through a series of classes conducted on the weekends and weekdays too. For some, our programs will be closest you will ever come to being in the military or a wilderness outdoor environment. For others, such as those who enjoy being in the outdoors, you will learn many useful and valuable outdoor skills that can only be acquired in the military or from a wilderness survival school.
Rest assured we won't waste your time teaching you something you don't want to learn or doesn't work. We'll teach you only the skills and techniques that have been tried, tested and proven to work similar to what soldiers are taught in US Army Special Forces and Survival, Evasion, Resistance & Escape (S.E.R.E) school.
And when you complete our 24 hour
wilderness survival training
program, instead of receiving a worthless piece of paper known as a training certificate,
you will be awarded a special coin or what US soldiers call a "challenge coins" (See below). Provided, of course, you successfully complete our training prerequisites.
And so if you've never been in the military and or you can't afford the time and money to attend one of the many excellent wilderness survival schools in the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom, then SOS Italia-USA is for you. We promise you'll not only find our programs interesting and educational, but fun too!
