Midwest Native Skills Institute is a non-military Wilderness  Outdoors School located in OHIO offering comprehensive classes in wilderness survival designed to teach you how to survive or even live in the wilderness with little or even no equipment.

Classes are taught in a kind, gentle way and include 3 good daily meals (no bugs!), but will focus on the knowledge of what to do and learning the real skills on the "how" of doing it rather than pure physical strength. therefore, physical fitness or strength is not required to attend any of our classes

Each day will be fast paced as you learn a different aspect of how to acquire food, shelter, water, fire, how to navigate with or without maps, as you heighten your awareness of your surroundings.  Become a real "Survivorman" or learn the skills you see on "Man vs. Wild". www.survivorschool.com

You will feel empowered as you learn to make fire by rubbing 2 sticks together, make a meal from the plants you find, and how to set snares or make deadfall traps for food. All meals are included. Tent camping are the typical accommodations however arrangements can be made for a motel stay.

    4 REASONS why we're different from other schools:
1. Individual instruction (classes limited to approx. 12)
2. Varying class lengths to fit into your busy schedule.
3. Easy to get to via air or car.
4. The only school that offers a Money Back Guarantee.
