If you want to move through the forest and know which animals and birds are living there, what their lives are like, read the stories of their experiences, and learn to follow and see them, then this class is for you!
Tracking class will cover the basics of tracking such as clear print identification, gait studies and interpretation, sign tracking, cluster tracking, trailing and much more. We will spend time looking at compression tracks and trailing in order to learn to track in different substrates. As well as tracking we will discuss the importance of awareness and learn techniques of how to open our senses to the world around us and observe a greater depth in the world around us. For our approach to tracking we will look to the science and simple practices that will build a functionally more powerful awareness.
