““Thousands of nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity; and that mountain parks and reservations are useful, not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life.” - John Muir
Your Way In The Wild
Thrive Outdoors is a wilderness survival, first-aid safety, and adventure-based company that serves people of all ages but emphasizes working with youth and recovery organizations.
Based in downtown Manchester, NH, we serve all of New England. We allow our students and participants to unplug and reconnect while learning the skills necessary for real-world leadership, community-building, a positive mindset, stress reduction, coping, and self-worth realization.
Recovery Programming
We offer weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly programming for Recovery and sober-living organizations throughout New England.
Youth Programming
We offer school-based, homeschool, and one-off youth programming for children of all ages. Even beyond being prepared for surviving in the wild, we fully believe that learning how to navigate life using the natural tools for stress-relief found in nature is pivotal to the human experience.
Wilderness, First Aid & Safety (and Beyond)
We offer various courses and adventure-based programming for people of all ages and abilities, both for large organizations (such as schools and recovery services) and for individuals and families.
Please review our basic packages and prices and let us know if you have anything specific you or your group want to learn. Creating something new for a client only helps us continue thriving.
“Wilderness to the people of America is a spiritual necessity, an antidote to the high pressure of modern life, a means of regaining serenity and equilibrium.”
