Adventure Shield and Moveobrace

Adventure Shield offers trainings to prepare yourself for accident situations during outdoor activities. In many cases it can prove difficult to transport a victim on your own transport to a hospital. An ambulance might take a long time to get to a remote accident location. The trainings are teach you how to deal with these situations and are geared towards the sport/hobby you practice. There are specific trainings for cyclists, motorcycle riders and horse riders. During the training you will learn how to intelligently make the most out of the opportunities and challenges posed by the environment, the weather, your clothes and gear to assist a victim as best as possible.

Taking a training with Adventure Shield is an important step in the preparations for your trip. Your vehicle is not the only thing that can incur damage.

Take the Jump Travel Coaching

Have you been dreaming of travelling for a while, but not yet dared to take the plunge? Or do you want to travel but you're not sure how or where. Perhaps there are specific issues or situations that make you doubt whether such a trip is a good idea for you. If you hear a travel story, it sometimes sounds so self-evident: "They just left." But usually it takes a good amount of courage to make that first step: there are always unknowns and reasons to not go.

Together with Bert you get started during a session of travel coaching. Depending on what you need, you sharpen the purpose of your journey, see what the next steps can be in your plan or investigate how to remove your own thresholds. Or maybe you just nee da little help to make a clear decision: yes I'm going, or no I'll give it up, that is also possible.

If you want to be sure of a free session, you can already book by contacting bert@durvenspringen.be.

Bert was successively a physics researcher, software designer and marketing manager. After ten years he grabbed the opportunity to radically choose a different path. He started a trip through New Zealand, which is also covered in one of the Discover Overland presentations. Now he is the first travel coach in Flanders, helping to guide people to self-fulfillment and making their travel dreams come true.
