Activities draw on the knowledge and ideas of every group member and require the participation and cooperation of the entire team for success. After completing each element, our facilitators help groups reflect upon their experience to explore how they function as a team and ways to become more effective. Our low element activities are performed on or close to the ground, gradually increasing in difficulty so that the team can learn from it's successes, and build trust, confidence, and communication skills as obstacles are overcome. The high ropes course provides further opportunities for teamwork with an added emphasis on individual challenge while still maintaining the cohesiveness of the team. The high elements provide opportunities for participants to expand their comfort zones and to overcome fears that can block personal and group development.
Individuals learn to trust and depend on their coworkers for support.
This will ensure the group grows together as a unit, not individually. Activities provide an opportunity for participants to be over 30 feet off the ground with harnesses and ropes used for safety. Elements can include the Climbing Wall, Leap Pole, High Wire Traverse, and the Initiative Wall. The advantage of a ropes course is that everyone can participate, regardless of physical ability or athletic experience. There are no failures on the ropes course.
