Graham is a fantastic teacher and very knowledgeable.

I booked the “Essential Bushcraft” course and enjoyed every minute whilst learning some valuable skills.

I look forward to more courses with Polaris.

Although books and videos are great, I found there’s no substitute for being shown by an actual human in an actual woodland. I loved gathering round a campfire for a mixture of concise information and illustrative stories (about practical matters, context, how to choose equipment, what is important and why) as this helped me make sense of the bits and bobs I knew already while filling tons of gaps. But of course, most of the day was hands on- so many different things to try and some genuine new skills to take away. Graham is confident, warm and highly knowledgable (but with none of the ego that sometimes creeps into this field) he’s a joy to learn from. I’m female, went on my own, had a great day and learnt loads. If you’re wondering whether to book- go for it! You won’t be disappointed.

Graham is clearly incredibly knowledgeable about all things bushcraft/outdoors.
I went along with my three year old daughter who had a great time and didn't ask for any digital media the entire weekend.

I'm now pretty confident at fire lighting and sourcing & filtering water.

As part of my job I work with young people undertaking DofE/camping etc and I'd love for them to be able to visit Polaris to be taught bushcraft skills.

I'll definitely be back for my future own learning.

My 10 year old daughter and I took part in the Family Bushcraft and Survival Weekend. Graham was very knowledgeable and helpful. We learnt about building shelters, ways of making and maintaining a fire and water purification. We had a brilliant time and learnt absolutely loads from the course. We would definitely do it again.

Graham was there to greet us and helped us transport our belongings to the area where the course was based. He was friendly and helpful and full of interesting bushcraft information. My daughter and I really enjoyed our weekend and learned to build a shelter, start a fire, collect and purify pond water, identify edible and toxic native species and those used to find water and use as kindling. She particularly enjoyed swinging in the hammock and starting a fire.

I came with my 3 grandchildren (10, 8 and 6) and there was something for all of us to learn and enjoy. We were all a bit anxious about what the weekend would be like, but it turned out much better than we could have hoped.

Really interesting and fun weekend with Grahame. He really does know his stuff!

Excellent instructor, brilliant knowledge of techniques and historical relevance. kept it really interesting throughout.. everything was made readily avaliable and weekend was packed with plenty of time to disappear and try out the new knowledge we gained. 5 star! Thanks again!

Great experience, we had no idea about how to make fire and now we know a few techniques that we hope to put in practice soon. Graham explains things very clearly and he's very helpful...it was a fun, relaxed day. We would definitely recommend it!

Natural Navigation Day is my third workshop with Polaris, and was another fabulous day. Graham is so incredibly knowledgeable but also makes it a lot of fun to learn. It was an adventure.

a really intereseting and fun day. graham is clearly very knowledgeable and he teaches at a nice pace - never boring! I learned a lot.

E muito ser próspero

Graham is a perfect guide for your weekend. Knowledgeable, approachable and personable he helps all levels of skill sets.

The course itself is a great mix of practical and theory, keeping you engaged whilst always enjoyable. From building shelters to lighting fires, craft and general bush skills.

Whether you are very experienced or new to camping the course is for you

Graham and Natalie are so knowledgable and made the experience enriching and enjoyable! I would highly recommend doing the wild foraging day or tree identification course! Beautiful people and beautiful day.

We had such a great day and learnt so much from Graham. It was fun, informative, and taught me new and valuable survival skills. Having the opportunity to connect with the natural environment and feel that freedom of enjoying time outside like I did as a child was refreshing and a welcome opportunity from the reality of everyday life. An unexpected benefit was the chance to meet new people, we were a group of 16 of varying ages and interests.

Wonderful fun packed day!! Graham was AMAZING!
We are defo going to be booking further courses.
I would give 6 stars if i could.

Attentive and detailed: Graham was an excellent teacher and a man clearly deeply invested in his skill and his art. I could not recommend this more - it's excellent value and a blessed relief from the hurly burly.

Amazing experience, brilliant mentoring, beautiful location and venue. A delightful place to relax learn and to meet new people. A jewel of Hertfordshire.

This was a brilliant course led by Graham in a peaceful woodland setting. I learned lots of new skills and how to use my tools safely. I really enjoyed it and I will definitely be using Graham again in the future.

I had a great time on the weekend bushcraft course, Graham was an entertaining and informative instructor, and there was lots of scope for practical learning
