ALIVE Outdoors Inc.

The mission of ALIVE Outdoors is to use experiential education to empower people to recognize and embrace their inner potential. The backbone and essence of each ALIVE Outdoors experience is right on our name: Adventure, Leadership, Individuality, Values and Empowerment. Through the use of experiential learning and adventure activities, our customized programs inspire confidence to embrace challenge in a caring and supportive atmosphere. In a society that encourages competition, we help people to learn the importance of cooperation. Learning through experience allows students to become more aware of who they are, and they have the chance to align their behaviour and choices with their values. During all ALIVE experiences there is an emphasis placed on the idea that leadership begins from within—and that personal leadership is defined by all the small actions we do—especially when no one is watching. Students can develop key qualities such as responsibility, communication skills, healthy decision making, community living, independence and cooperation. Self-empowerment and decision making skills derive from this type of hands on learning. At ALIVE Outdoors we believe our programs stimulate the development of interpersonal skills, as well as encourage people to be physically active and supportive of one another. In our world of television, computers, cell phones, blackberry’s and other unhealthy distractions these skills are extremely important to nurture. TICO # 50027820
