Join us in Philadelphia for Spring Coyote Tracks! Our programs introduce children to Earth Skills - a blend of the ancient arts of wildlife tracking, natural movement, wilderness survival, nature awareness, and cross cultural history. Our Programs are inspired by Indigenous values and the old ways, influenced by the Tracker School and each Instructor's own "dirt time" living these skills.
Every session includes circle time and gratitude sharing. |
