In conjunction with SERE Training School, California Survival School is pleased to offer our 2 Day SERE Training Stealth And Evasion Basics tactical course taught by our Former US Air Force SERE Instructor Staff. Accept nothing less. The best place to learn SERE skills is to get them from actual former USAF SERE Instructors like ours.

SERE Stealth & Evasion Training Covers:

-Preparing for Evasion.

-The mental mindset of a successful evader.

-The principles of effective camouflage.

-Meeting your basic survival needs in tactical environments.

-Movement techniques when alone or in a small group.

-How to minimize signs of presence and passage.

-NBC (Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical) considerations.

Note: Escape & Resistance Training – The concept of military-like combined Escape and Evasion “E&E” training courses that include escape and resistance elements have become popular over the years. This course is NOT one of them. Instead of imitating military-style training, the curriculum focus for this course is to take you deep into the fundamentals of genuine SERE Stealth and Evasion technique in the way that only actual former US Air Force SERE Instructors can. SERE Training School instructors can provide (for civilians and military alike) private classes for resistance and escape techniques on request. These are not part of our general sign-up classes for several reasons. First, some techniques are classified and not taught to the general public ever. Second, we believe that the best method is to not get caught in the first place (a core focus of this course). Third the likelihood of civilians ever needing to resist interrogation techniques or escape a prison camp is (we hope) fairly small. If you would like this type of training, please contact us by email below and we will discuss options that may fit your needs. *Prerequisite: To take this Stealth and Evasion course you must have taken a non-tactical “Core Survival Basics” class within the last 3 years from either California Survival School or SERE Training School. Please email us at Info@CASurvival.com if you have any questions about this or think for whatever reason you may be able to skip this prerequisite.
