adventure active training for life


About the Active range and approach

Active is about practical action.

Active is an approach, an attitude, an adventure. With 25 years experience in the outdoor and experiential development industry, we know our stuff. However, the Active approach is constantly evolving. Active is honed to identify & focus upon the key fulcrums to leverage individuals, teams and organisations to get the right things done. Never just an outdoor specialist, we combine our extensive experience of taking people into challenging outdoor environments with a unique approach to creating high performance relationships.

 

Active exists to challenge you

Step outside the zone and enjoy it!

We believe that people who engage positively, people who are prepared to step away from their comfort zones, people who are prepared to be adventurous with themselves are the people who will develop and achieve more. There is no growth without risk. We work hard to ensure that the risks you take are sustainable - based upon courageous conversations not reckless actions.

 

 

Active uses experiences to build understanding and respect

relationships and building respect allows us to be adventurous with each other

With Active you wont get 'rah rah' sessions, there is no death by power point, no sheep dip, one size fits all approach, no SAS survival training, no actors or role plays and definitely no paint ball! Active won't wind you up to walk across hot coals, or smash blocks of wood. Neither will you be pumped up by a 'motivation speaker'.

Understanding is the key. We use practical experiences and tasks to accelerate delegates' self knowledge and to deepen their understanding of others. From this process respect is strengthened and relationships begin to bond. Only when you have understanding, respect and a strong relationship can you begin to drive performance.

 

Active why use the outdoors?

The great accelerator!

Well first of all because it's fun! It's also challenging and we want people to become adventurous in every aspect of their lives, so it's a great place to start the process. Mainly though we use it because we know it works and it delivers results quickly. The outdoors is an accelerator, it condenses emotions and experiences and brings vivid powerful learning to delegates at a rapid pace.

 

 

Active where do we work?

Inspiring environments

Our workplace is the outdoors. We run events from hotels, conference centres, outdoor centres and barns! We look for the right environment to inspire your delegates and to accelerate the process.

Your budget and your outcomes drive the selection, but we work all over the UK, Europe and further afield. We go wherever is right to get the job done. It's not all big mountains and raging rivers or beautiful, inspiring scenery. Often we run journey based events or development projects (challenge Anika type things) and there is plenty of barrels and planks on the hotel lawns! We do it all and we do it well.

Active we keep you focused on your toughest challenges

We use the outdoor challenges as a metaphor. Helping you to understand yourself and others. To build trust and respect, strengthening relationships through thoughts, words and deeds. Only when you have this support will you step away from what you are comfortable with and be adventurous. Not just adventures on mountains or river, but adventures in life. Challenging your own thinking and boundaries, sharing, supporting and encouraging others through challenging conversations and demonstrating courage, authenticity and commitment through your actions.

active adventures in development

Adventure is the key to being alive. For some, it's the adventure of climbing a mountain or skiing. For others it's the sense of adventure that comes from taking on a new role, or having a challenging conversation.

For all, its the BUZZ that gives you your sense of energy, your life force.

However, so much of our lives are spent existing rather than living. Work gets in the way, Families demand our spare time, our relationships chug along.

 

 

 

active life

 

 

 

 

Our passion is to help people find an adventurous way of living. Not by climbing mountains every day, but by bringing adventure to the relationships that exist at the centre of your life. By challenging you to be the real you, authentic you, totally focused and present you. When you are with your work teams, your family, your partner and yourself.

Why? Because, when you get in that rut, when you carry the stress, when you lose your vibrancy, when you're coasting rather than charging at life - who picks up the tab and pays the bill?

The ones you love!

Every second counts.Be Active!
Be 100% real
Be you
