The Great Ape Empire is a Canadian Forces Veteran owned company based out of Wiarton, ON. Check out the full website for more details on our staff and what we stand for. Based on previous course feedback, many told us they were somewhat intimidated by the fact this course was led by Afghanistan war veterans and the potential of being “beasted” would render the training not enjoyable. They were totally shocked and pleasantly surprised when they found out they were dealing with a bunch of old softies with big smiles and bigger hearts. We care about the morale and welfare of our students and go above and beyond to make your experience as enjoyable as the weather will allow. We may look hardened and stern; however, we can assure you that our staff are courteous, passionate, some handsome, and all have a sense of humour. One thing is certain, our training has kept us alive through various missions and situations, and so we take it very seriously. We are military – we respect timings. Please keep this in mind throughout our training day as we need to keep on track in order to provide you the best training possible. Once the training day is completed, we will have plenty of time to unwind, share stories around the campfire and go for a refreshing Fall swim.
Candidates will be sleeping in canvass hunting tents furnished with military cots for the classroom portion of training. We will then transition into a more austere training environment (forest) where candidates will build and live in their own shelters.
“An Army marches on its stomach” – Napoleon. This idea is carried over into our course. Our students are well fed! In fact, we’ve received a great deal of positive reviews for our delicious dishes. Why do we focus on food? Well, Napoleon said it best and we can attest that a well fed and rested candidate learns more, retains more, performs better and has more fun. The training day will start at 8am (0800hrs) and end at 9pm (2100hrs). This requires a lot of focus and energy – we will keep you fed so that you can remain focused on learning. With great food, comes great chores. Candidates will be responsible for their own dishes but we will provide soap and water, ‘cause we are good people like that… we just don’t do other peoples dishes.
Please contact us at survivalcourse@greatapeempire.com for more details and with ALL questions or concerns. We will get back to you ASAP. We are easy to talk to and will help you navigate your way to us. We will make sure you arrive prepared and ready to learn!
There is plenty more added to the course for you to learn and for us to teach. We also love to hear about the skills and experiences you have had. We all have so much to offer. Always more to learn.
