If you embody these qualities and are interested in exploring the apprenticeship, here’s the gist:
The apprenticeship will deepen and strengthen your Traditional Archery and Instinctive Shooting abilities and confidence. You will also grow into your leadership, ability to guide, seeing, knowing, listening, caring, self transformation, purpose, communication skills, solidity, and heart.
The ultimate purpose of the apprenticeship is to seek and develop eventual Wayfinder staff.
It also aids in our own development while aiding the development of others.
What is required and exchanged:
Studying the Wayfinder Archery training documents and videos.
5+ events to be worked as a Wayfinder volunteer to see if we are a good match.
If after any of the events, we no longer feel like working together, we end the apprenticeship.
At the end of each event, you receive a private lesson.
If you are interested in inner terrain coaching, this will be included in your private lesson.
After your 2nd event you will be loaned equipment to use until the apprenticeship ends.
When spa passes or skill share classes are offered during the events worked at, these will be offered to you complimentary.
What’s the application process look like:
For starters, participation at a Wayfinder Archery event as a student is mandatory.
Fill out the application form.
If considered, we will share a zoom, facetime, or google meets call.
Once selected, we share another call going over the calendar to pin down event dates.
Once we have dates on the calendar you will be sent an official agreement, the training documents and videos, and any other necessary information.
Show up on time and ready for our first event!
