Best adventure gap year

Warriors Academy has been an incredible journey for me over the past four quests. The emphasis on mental grit is truly inspiring; it pushes you to exceed your limits and discover strengths you never knew you had. Each trip is not just an adventure but a chance to challenge yourself, learn new skills, and immerse yourself in nature.

The friendships formed here are genuinely special. The shared experiences create bonds that last a lifetime, as you navigate challenges and celebrate victories together. The supportive community fosters an environment where everyone encourages each other to grow and succeed. Whether it's through team-building activities or personal challenges, the sense of camaraderie is palpable.

Overall, Warriors Academy isn't just about the adventures; it's about personal growth, resilience, and the unforgettable connections you make along the way. Each quest enriches your life in ways you can't fully appreciate until you're back home, reflecting on the journey.

Warriors is the best

Coming to Warriors has taught me many lessons, I learned discipline and pushing through whenever it gets tough, Creating a mind that is tough and resilient is an important part of life and here at Warriors it is taught over and over again until it’s cemented in you. the people, staff, and activities all play a part in becoming the best version of yourself, this means boosting confidence, learning new and unique cultures, and learning to think before you do. Warriors is the perfect place to pave the way to your future

Warriors gap year

Warriors is a great place to experience growth while getting uncomfortable intentionally. Without warriors I wouldn’t be in the place I am today with some of my favorite people. I can’t imagine where I would be in my journey if hadn’t come to warriors. Without the people here pushing me to be the best version of my self day in and day out I would still be in the same place. I have never been in a more supportive environment where everyone cares how you are doing and feeling every single day. Thank you

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
I had never tried traditional SA pop

Amazing Experience

I never expected to have this much fun and learn as much as I did. The values, as well as the usefull skills I have learnt and obtain will definately stick to me. With that, I can conclude that this journey definitely was worthwhile. We have done so much as a group, and in only 7 weeks, we have bonded so well.
The facilitators are always on point, and all they want is for you to have fun. The safety standards are amazing, and all the activities done with the warriors are completely safe. Couldn’t have asked for anything better

Warriors Review

I’ve had many new experiences and have made some good friends I’ve learnt how to respect myself and to respect others - coming to warriors was the best choice I’ve ever made. The staff here have really helped me out and have changed the way that I think and do things. All the activities are over the top fun and exciting, I always had something to do here at warriors - you are always active and always having to give it your all. It’s a great place and I'd recommend this to anyone that loves being in the outdoors.

warriors 10/10

Warriors Academy was absolutely incredible! I met amazing people, made lifelong friends, and did cool things like hiking, swimming, and cycling. Exploring new places and being surrounded by nature was so refreshing. The best part? The personal growth I experienced. I discovered my strength, mentally and physically. Being in a good mental space made everything even more enjoyable. It was a well-rounded experience, with adventure, personal development, and connections with like-minded individuals. I learned so much about myself and pushed my limits. If you get the chance, check it out! It's an unforgettable experience of memories, friendships, and personal growth. I'm grateful for the person it helped me become.

Summer quest 2024!

Warriors has been an adventure of a lifetime! Being able to challenge myself in so many ways as well as traveling has made this experience so worth it. The soft skills that we learned was so beneficial towards my growth as a person and I learnt so much on these courses. Coming back for the second quest! Warriors allowed me the opportunity to meet so many new people as well as have experiences that were totally out of my comfort zone. The many characteristics and different nationalities were interesting to indulge in. The co stand physical activity also kept me in shape
