Tracker Staff

No doubt that you have heard by now that we are introducing a series of Philosophy Classes that are designed to be taught over a long weekend.  As the world we once knew unravels around us and we are getting closer to Grandfathers' Third Prophecy; I felt an extreme need to take the Philosophy Workshop to those who would not be able to attend the main stream Tracker Classes.  

The interesting thing about these Weekend Philosophy Workshops is that the new student does not need the prerequisite Standard Class to enroll.  The Weekend Philosophy Classes are also coming to your area; subsequently travel costs to the new student will no longer be a factor.  These new Philosophy Classes will run from a Thursday at 7:00 p.m. to Sunday, ending around 3:00 p.m.  Even more interesting is that these Weekend Philosophy Workshops are designed to take place even in our most populated city and suburban areas.  The core information of the Philosophy I class will be fully taught along with expanded information and teaching to make up for the lectures and workshops that would have been covered in the Standard Class.  

The student will provide their own food and lodging since these classes will take place outside of our usual class areas.  In the final analysis the graduates of these Weekend Philosophy Workshops will have nearly the same skills and knowledge as those students who had graduated the main stream Tracker Philosophy Classes.  

The reason that I am writing to you is very simple.  For decades now students have been telling me that they have friends and family that would love to attend the Philosophy Workshop at the Tracker but because of time constraints, travel factors, family and job issues it is not always possible.  Now this is all changing because I, and the Tracker School, may be coming to your area.  If you have friends or family that have longed to take a Philosophy Workshop please let them know that we may be coming close to their home.

If you would like to sponsor a Weekend Philosophy Workshop then let us know and we will send you all of the information you need to become a sponsor.  I am looking forward to this new branch of the Tracker School.  Now added to our ever growing Tracker on-line University and several other new ways of teaching are these very powerful Weekend Philosophy Workshops.  Given the state of the economy, the frustration and fear, and all of the responsibility we each face, these Philosophy Classes not only makes it easier for the new student but also expands and fulfills the promise that I made to Grandfather many years ago; to keep his Vision and Ancient Skills Alive, and to lead people back to the Earth.

Now is your chance to get your family and closest friends involved in your passion and understanding of the Earth and in Grandfathers' Vision, my Vision, and most of all your Vision.  

The first of these workshops as been set up at the Wildwood Lodge in Lake Elmo, Minnesota from February 11^th-14^th, 2010, please see the details below and please let your friends know, let your family know and let’s try to save the Earth.  

In Medicine,

Tom

Teaching Grandfathers Philosophy

This is a series of classes that will teach the student how to teach the philosophy, spirituality, and techniques that they have learned in the Philosophy Classes. The teaching of these classes goes far beyond the simple realm of teaching on a physical and emotional level, following a written outline.  That approach is but a small percentage of the real teaching going on, on a deeply spiritual level.  These classes will teach the student how to teach from the place of "trilogy" where the physical and spiritual are balanced and the teaching go deep into your student’s spiritual life.  Not only will one learn to teach another on a one on one basis, but also how to teach children of all ages, nurturing their spiritual gifts from a very young age.  

Another important aspect of this class is that I am teaching the instructors that will assist me when I begin doing the weekend Philosophy workshops throughout the country and even internationally.  I developed a format of teaching where I can bring the basics of the Philosophy Workshop into a weekend class and set these classes up in various locations.  This way Grandfathers' Philosophy will reach many people who can not find the time to attend the week long Philosophy I workshops.  I will be eventually calling on the graduates of this class to help set up and assist me in teaching these classes.

Cancer

Yes, a class that exclusively deals with the healing of Cancer.  This class will not only define in detail the collecting, preparation and compounding of medicinal herbs but also enter the more powerful and definitive realms of healing cancer through the spirit.  Not only will the techniques be applied to a patient but also to oneself if you are in the process of battling cancer.  It also deals with helping not only the patient but the families of patients that need emotional and spiritual support.  Cancer is one of those afflictions that Grandfather healed in a very specific way and that is why this class has been born.

The Way of Darkness

Several months ago I ran an Intensive Class dealing with what Grandfather called the Way of the Black Shaman, of Darkness, and the powerful realm of Demonic influence that surrounds us every day.  During that Intensive Class I realized that there was so much more that it had to be expanded into a Commitment Class format because there was just so much more to teach. This class has always been in the back of my mind and now I have a way to expand what I had started a long time ago with the Intensive Class.  I can teach areas and have students get the necessary "dirt time" (experience) to take them to a higher level of understanding.

The Promise

The Promise is a class that defies description because it enters into so many levels of what is taught at the Tracker School.  Basically it expands on the promises I made to Grandfather about teaching his physical and spiritual skills and passing them down to his Grandchildren; you the student.  In other words, it defines the role of the student and the promise they make to Grandfather through my commitment and promises to him.  It reaches deep into the teaching of philosophy, the prophecies, and the expansion of all that is driving me, the Tracker School, and now you.  Ironically, it answers the basic question as to "What is the meaning of life" specifically your life, my life, and most important, Grandfather's life.  Those who graduate this class I will call on someday soon to help me preserve, expand, and pass on this sacred knowledge that Grandfather entrusted to me and now I to you.  There are so many things I have never been able to pass on that this class will help me to further my promise to Grandfather.

Our instructors are starting to release their 2009/2010 workshop schedules.  Right now Tommy Brown III , Matt Corradino and Bill Marple have their classes up, and by the end of the week  Jorge Brana should have his ready to go too!

These workshops are going to be nothing short of amazing!  Most workshops are low in price and have low limits, so they will be more intimate and one and one than our larger classes. 

Please check out our 2009 and 2010 Intensive schedules for more details!   As always, if you have any questions please email Sara at registration@trackerschool.com

We are pleased to announce that previous broadcasts of Tom Brown Jr Live will be available for your viewing pleasure. Many of you have asked if we would be broadcasting previous episodes, and we have just completed installing upgrades to the website to accomplish this end. So here is how it will work.

If you purchase a Live episode but for some reason miss the broadcast, you will be able to watch the broadcast On-Demand when it is available at no cost. This will take anywhere from a few hours to a week. We need to pull out the breaks and clean the broadcasts up a bit. We have also been editing them to include two cameras which we have not been able to do in the Live broadcasts. An important note here, do not click on the link for the live broadcast or you will be counted as watching it, if this happens the system won’t let you view the On-Demand version. So, if you know you can’t watch all of the Live broadcast, do not click on the link for it on broadcast day.  Wait until the On-Demand version is up to purchase and you will be able to watch it then. 

With the On-Demand broadcasts it is easy to purchase them here on the website for $35 each, and when you are ready to watch them, click the link under “My Account” and you will have twenty-four hours to view it once you click the link to start the broadcast.  We have also included a method to increase your viewing time by 24 hours if you want to view it again or if the first 24 hours was not enough time to view the stream.

Sara will be working hard to manually populate your viewing history with On-Demand broadcasts that we know you purchased but were unable to watch. So please be patient, and if you feel you are missing a broadcast send her an e-mail at sara.tillison@trackerschool.com. Also be patient with David and Steven they are cleaning up the broadcast as quickly as they can, and we will add previous broadcasts as quickly as we can.

So if you have missed any broadcasts this is your chance to try the new system and catch up on these teachings. Also for those who just do not have a high speed internet connection, we have not forgotten you. We will be making an announcement soon about the purchase of DVD versions of the broadcasts.

Please understand that this is a work in progress and improvements will be made along the way, as problems arise.   If you have any questions, please let us know.

Updated info for Escape from Armageddon

Hi Folks, 

As many of you already know I've been hard at work putting together our first on-line only series.  I've finally finished the outline for this series of broadcasts called, "Escape from Armageddon". Basically it deals with the world we live in now, and the "probable" future we face as a planet and a species.  This on-line only class will deal with a multitude of topics, techniques, and teachings dealing with the preparation, and exodus from the very real fate of our Earth Mother.

Each of the programs will deal with a specific series of topics, all related to a time frame of events.  For instance; the first 2 hour live program will deal with our now and all of the things we should be aware of to keep us both safe and informed.  It will deal with the preparations we can make now and how to train ourselves now so that we might be better able to save what we have left of the Earth and each other.  The second program deals with our lives over the next ten years, following the format, teaching, and information found in the first program.  These are not just how-to programs dealing with physical skills but will also cover the philosophical and visionary techniques that one can use on a daily basis.  

Most important there will be special attention given to the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual realities that you will face and deal with for both you and your family.  Since these programs are some of the most sought after at the Tracker School and the most asked for, I felt that this would be the best format to reach more people than by the main stream Tracker Classes.  

These on-line classes will consist of four two-hour live programs, which will no doubt run overtime. If you miss the live class, we will rebroadcast on-demand. These live broadcasts will be followed up with two two-hour prerecorded programs and finally followed up with a series of six to ten minute mini-casts.  It is during the live programs that we will take questions and try to get to all them either live or in a follow-up e-mail.  

The instructors and I will also be running weekend workshops expanding on these teachings.  One weekend will be dedicated to the "escape" part of the programs.  In a very real way we will begin the class in a suburban setting and by using Scout tactics we will finish the class deep within the Pine Barrens Camp. The set up for this "escape" class will be very real and intensely informative.  

Other physical weekend workshop will be on Scout tactics that will consist of escape, evasion, camouflage, counter tracking, awareness, and so much more. We are also planning a weekend workshop that will deal with a City and Suburban Survival situation that will teach the movement, awareness, and survival with the materials found in a city or suburban environment.  

Needless to say, I am more than excited about this new teaching medium and especially the topics I chose for our first on-line program.  If this on-line series are successful then you will see more of them in the months to come.  

All Good Medicine,

Tom

Tracker Staff

The 2010 class schedule is now on the Tracker School website http://www.trackerschool.com. The schedule includes next year’s classes only. Tom’s commitment classes will be posted sometime in August, and his live stream schedule will be up in the next two weeks.

The 2010 class schedule only includes core Tracker classes including Standard, Advanced Standard, Advanced Tracking and Awareness, Scout, Philosophy 1, and Philosophy 2. We will add advanced classes to the web when the prerequisite community is large enough and they have worked on their skills enough to warrant adding a new class. At this time we do not anticipate adding any advanced classes to the 2010 schedule.

Tom Brown Jr Live

The 2009 broadcast schedule is now on the website. Tom is very excited about these broadcasts, and the initial schedule is open to all Tracker Students as well as the General Public. If you know of anyone who has been curios about Tom and Grandfathers teachings, please pass this on.

All the live streams will begin at 6pm EST and will end aprox at 8pm EST.   The cost is $35 per live stream, and there are no prerequsits.

To make sure you have no issues before the Live Stream please see to it that:

1. You have the latest Adobe Flash Player installed on your computer.  You can down load it here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.  If you are having problems downloading Adobe Flash Player, please visit their support section here: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/.

2. Make sure your intent connection is at least 300kbps.  If you are concerned about whether or not your internet speed is 300kbps or not, you can check it out here:  http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/.  Just follow the directions on the page (you are interested in the “download speed” number).

Tom will also be adding, from time to time, special broadcasts targeted to specific tracks at the Tracker School. So if you are a Philosophy student, a Teacher, Healer, Scout or Survivalist, stay tuned.

World Tracker is pleased to announce that we will be going to Belize in 2010. Trip details will follow, however if you would like to go to Belize with Tom and Celeste please contact Sara at sara.tillison@trackerschool.com

Dates: January 26, 2010 – February 1, 2010

Spaces: 36 students

Price: $2,150 (does not include airfare to Belize City)

Tom and Celeste are very excited about this trip, retracing some of Grandfathers steps through Central America. This will be an experience of a lifetime, so if you are interested please contact Sara today!

As Tom has implied in several of his past newsletters, the structure of Tracker will be changing in 2009 and 2010. The intent of this newsletter is to give you an outline of these changes and how they may affect you.

The first change you will see on the schedule in 2010 (when it comes out in June) is there will only be six core courses on the schedule which include:

            Standard

            Advanced Standard

            Advanced Tracking and Awareness

            Scout

            Philosophy 1

            Philosophy 2

So you may ask, what will happen to the other seventy plus courses that Tracker has offered in the past? We will use the following example to illustrate your path to the next course on your wish list.

You have completed Philosophy 2 and you would like to take Philosophy 3; how do you get there from here. First you will need to become an active participant in the Tracker Online Community, which will be set up sometime this summer through our website. On the Philosophy 2 Online Community, as an example, we will poll you and ask how many would like to take Philosophy 3. If we receive a positive response from the community we will then offer several dates and let you vote on which date best meets your constraints. We will then schedule Philosophy 3. Once you have taken Philosophy 3, you will move up to that community and be removed from the Philosophy 2 community.

The communities will also allow for many things that Tom has always wanted to accomplish but was unable to facilitate. We will be providing each community with a group page which will include links to forums, course specific announcements and assignments, and ways of sharing with each other. These group pages will only be accessible to those who have completed the course. They will also allow you to communicate to us your needs and desires.

Tom will also be offering approximately eight new commitment classes at the end of 2009 and into 2010. Some of these may be by invitation only while others will be open to anyone who has taken the prerequisite. He is currently exploring his options, with possible series titles like, Cancer, Ceremony, and the list goes on.  What is important to know is there will only be approximately 300 spaces in the eight commitment classes (yes that’s 40 students per series), and they will each be held over three, five or seven, long weekends throughout the year.

To facilitate the new crop of Commitment Classes we will be making the following changes to the 2009 Calendar.

The following classes will be cancelled in 2009:

            Best of the Intensives                July 26 – August 1

            Awareness 1                            October 25 - 31

            Awareness 2                            November 1- 7

            Awareness 3                            November 8 - 14

The following courses have been moved to new dates:

Philosophy 1                             July 26 – August 1

Philosophy 2                             October 18 – 24

If you are disappointed about the cancellation of a class you wanted to take we apologize; these changes are necessary to accommodate the new series of commitment classes. We see these changes as a great opportunity for everyone at Tracker. Tom is about to enter territory in his teachings which he has never had time to enter. You will have a chance to communicate to us exactly what you feel you need to further your education. So if you are committed to your learning this will be the best thing to happen at Tracker in 30 years.

The Tracker School does not advertise and probably never will. Our new students come from a combination of Tom’s books, interviews and through students referring other students. As recognition for the large part each of you plays, we would like to thank you, by providing you with a $200 voucher towards your next Tracker Class. This program shall be subject to the following conditions:

Conditions

1.        Only current Tracker School Students can refer new students.

2.        The New Standard Student must either write on their paper application the name of  

            the Tracker Student who referred them, or email Sara

            at Registration@TrackerSchool.com with the name of the Tracker Student 

            who referred them.

3.        All referrals must be in BEFORE THEIR STANDARD CLASS BEGINS. NO EXCEPTIONS!

4.        If the New Standard Student cancels their class, the referrer will not receive their

           voucher.

5.        The Referrer will be compensated with the $200 coupon when the New Standard

           Student completes their Standard.  Please make sure all of your contact info is up to  

           date so we can mail your voucher to you!

6.        The $200 vouchers must be used before January 1^st, 2010.

7.        Vouchers can be used towards any Tracker Class or Intensive.

8.        You cannot apply your $200 voucher to any class before you receive it.

9.         The $200 voucher is non-transferable, meaning you cannot give the voucher to

            someone else.

Take care,

Tracker Staff

Hi Folks,

I first want to thank you all for your prayers and concern over my emergency hospital stay last weekend.  Your e-mails, phone calls, and letters have been much appreciated.  At times like these when I need support the most it is so gratifying an experience to realize that there is a whole Tracker Community out there that cares about each other.  During my hospital stay I have even heard from students that had taken the Tracker Classes 28 and even 30 years ago.  Our collective Vision of saving the Earth also reaches to each other.  Your outpouring of concern made the sense of "family" that Grandfather so often spoke about a reality, manifested in your caring.  

Of course as Trackers you all want to know why I was in the hospital.  After all, it’s in the nature of a Tracker to ask the "sacred question" as to what happened and why.  Basically my journey to the hospital stay began over 30 years ago.  I had been hit in the side of the jaw by a baseball bat and had a molar badly broken off as a result of the blow.  No I wasn't playing baseball but was trying to apprehend a fugitive I had just tracked down who happen to be holding a baseball bat.  Well a long story short, he is doing life and I have had a life long struggle with the broken tooth.  Over the years the remainder of the tooth fragments have worked their way out, like a splinter, each with its own raging infection.  Several years ago I had thought that the tooth was finally gone as none of my dental x-rays showed any evidence of the tooth.  What the oral surgeon and I didn't know was that a fragment of tooth root had penetrated my sinus cavity and was lodged there, causing years of agonizing pain, sinus infections, and a laundry list of other problems.  

During my last dentist visit I complained that it felt like a splinter stuck in my gum where the tooth had been and the dentist found that I was running an infection inside of the gum.  He decided to open up the gum and as he cleaned out the infection he found and removed the tooth fragment.  A day after the surgery and during the Philosophy V class the right side of my face swelled to a point where I was unrecognizable.  Well back to the dentist to have the infection suctioned out again.  A day later, with my face fully swollen to a point where my eye felt welded shut, running a raging fever and excruciating pain, I was rushed to the hospital.  Then it was a few days of constant IV, bed rest, and absolute boredom.  I was told as I was being discharged from the hospital that if I would have waited to come in for another 12 hours or less I would have been dead.  Wake up call !!!!!!!!  I had realized that tooth infections can be dangerous but up until now I did not realize how dangerous and life threatening they could be.  

So yes, I had a near death experience once again in my life and like the other times I've done a lot of soul searching and yes there will be a lot of changes in my life for damn sure.

Thank You all for your love and endless support.

In Medicine,

Tom

We are proud to announce the success of the very first Tracker Search and Forensic Investigation Screener for the East Coast Tracking Team!  The event was resoundingly positive for everyone involved.  Facilitators, applicants, and volunteers were all challenged, learned a lot about our skills, and had fun doing it! 

However, we haven’t yet finalized selections for the team, and we will be running a second Screener from the 27^th through the 31^st of October. 

Once again, this Screener will be for those individuals who can make a commitment to support the East Coast Tracking Team.  If you are at all interested in being a member of the primary team, alternate team, or working as an SFI volunteer, I urge you to send in your application as soon as possible.  Spots are filling up fast and we are capping the event at 20 people.  

I’m sure the October Screener will be as fun and challenging as the one we just put on!  Please see our website for details at www.trackersfi.org.  The application deadline is September 27.  Until then, all the best, and keep your nose in the dirt!

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to spend an extended period of time focusing on “living the life” you learn about in your Tracker classes? Have you ever wished that you could find a way to truly immerse yourself in the skills you’ve learned?  If so, now is your chance! Tracker School is now accepting applications for upcoming Internship terms, and we’d love to see one from you.

Our Internship Program provides an opportunity for qualified students to work with the school for a six month period, providing first-hand experience in what it takes to run a world-renowned wilderness survival school.

During their term Interns will develop a well-rounded set of survival skills, as well as real-world skills in leadership, organization, people management and facilities logistics. Mentorship time with Instructors allows each Intern to gain supervised, practical training in both the physical and spiritual skill of survival. 

Interns are selected through an application process, and applicants must have completed at least the Standard class, plus one additional class, and must have Volunteered for at least two classes before applying.

For your application, or if you have any questions about the program, e-mail intern@trackerschool.com or call our office at 609-242-0350.

If you have previously completed an Internship application and would like to be considered for upcoming terms, please e-mail and let us know.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!
