As for DIY -- I don't think I'm alone in this. I read survival books. I buy gear. I stock up. But it's hard to drag myself out, train myself and practice. I don't get out to nature much as it is, thanks to my job and my duties. Paying good money for a class and having an instructor and fellow students will drag me away from work. It will be good for morale, and it will provide a reasonable learning curve for those of us who are less experienced. I definitely could use the practice time.
I have a hard time lining up 4 schedules to be able to get out and do anything. I do most of me learning and practice in the back yard. learning new ways to make fire for example is done on the ring of the firepit. Kids like to it too since they get to "play with fire".
