Vermont Business Magazine These classes are perfect for women who enjoy the outdoors. Whether you work in the outdoor industry or participate in any of the many activities available in the region. Build skills and confidence in a fun learning evironment. As a former Air Force SERE (survival, evasion, resistance, and escape) specialist, wilderness survival expert Jessie Krebs spent 30 years preparing people for the unexpected. Now she’s teaching you the mindset and skills to safely explore the outdoors. Learn essential survival techniques—from signaling for help to reading a map, finding water, making shelter, and more—and embark on your next adventure with confidence.
You might have seen Jessie on National Geographic’s “Mygrations”, on HISTORY® Channel’s hit survival series “Alone” or even taken her classes on MasterClass. Her passion is helping women feel empowered by teaching them skills that are traditionally considered masculine. Women are survivors in ways that go well beyond the physical world, yet often feeling powerful in the physical realm transfers to emotional and mental strength. Jessie is the founder and lead instructor of OWLSSkills LLC. (Outdoorsy Women Learning Survival Skills). www.owlsskills.com, Classes include:
