Like all instructor courses this course also includes 6 zoom coaching calls, and a practice to complete following the course.

Instructor Course: Fire By Friction - hand drill

Over the last decade I have facilitated numerous fire making workshops, over the years I’ve realized creating fire by friction is not just something you do, it’s a way of being.

This is the instructor course, in this course we will go above and beyond everything taught in my normal friction fire workshop, including teaching you to float and finding the materials that you are drawn to most.

This course like all instructor courses also come with 6 zoom coaching calls as part of the package. A huge part of honing these skills is making them a practice, the coaching calls aid in you feeling accountable to the art and will help you feel held by the community of fire makers.

Duration: half Day + 6 zoom coaching calls (30mins each)

Cost: $370 per person

Friction fire kit included
