Course Series Overview
"When we track, we pick up a string. At the far end of that string a being is moving, existing, still connected to the track that we gaze upon. The animal's movement is still contained in that track, along with the smallest of external and internal details. As we follow these tracks, we begin to become the very animal we track. Our awareness expands from the animal we have become to the landscape it reacted to and is played by. We feel the influence of all things that surround us and our awareness expands from our consciousness to the mind of the animal and finally to the very cosmos. In tracking and awareness, then, there can never be a seperation. One without the other is but half a story, and incomplete picture, thus an incomplete understanding. It is the track that connects us to that grand consciousness and expands us to limitless horizons."

Course Prerequisites
Course Description
This course expands greatly on the tracking skills covered in your Standard class. You will cut months off of your dirt time by learning the most effective ways to put the Pressure Release Studies into practice. A better understanding of track aging, and insight into micro and macro pressure releases, will allow you to track a single animal on a high traffic trail, through various soil and debris conditions. You will also learn how to push your skills by breaking through your own walls when following a track. Grandfather always stressed that there can be no tracking without awareness, and in this class you will begin to learn how to incorporate both the physical and spiritual aspects of awareness, including camouflage, concentric rings, and the Sacred Silence, into your tracking tool box.
