What Sets OADE Apart?

The essential difference between survival training and OADE is that in survival training, the adventure is primary and any learning that results is a by-product, whereas in OADE, the physical event is subordinate to the primary activity, which is learning, leadership, Team Building, Communication, Stress Management and Decision Making. OADE program facilitates Self Discovery and Personal Growth with spiritual awareness.

Facilitations: At a time only one OADE program is planned by FABLAR. Hence, participants get the benefit of being facilitated by the designer of OADE, Dr Ravikumar Stephen J himself.

Custom-Designed Program: The training varies from group to group depending upon the Need, Goal, Age and Location.

Follow throu: OADE program offers post-training follow-up for a month, which is absolutely FREE, because OADE is a continuing journey and not a one-time event. We use feedback tools to measure the growth and to suggest further areas of development.

Spirituality: Unlike other adventure - based training, OADE aims in the holistic development of the individuals; that is why, Dream Work and modern and ancient Meditations are used. This is the uniqueness of the program that has gotten the appreciation Dr. Carmine M Consalvo, author of the "Manual of Outdoor Activities"

Frequently Asked Questions:

1.Can my friend or family member and I are part of the same group?

It is best that no one in your group has any preconceived ideas about your capabilities and that everyone in the group starts on an equal footing. Therefore, we do not allow people who know each other to be part of the same group.

2.Do I need to be in great shape to take up the course?

OADE programs are meant to be physically and mentally challenging; but you do not have to be an athlete or have any prior experience in the wilderness. If you are not already doing so, we advise you to begin an aerobic (running, walking and climbing up and down the stairs) exercise program to help you build up stamina before you participate in OADE program

3.What do I need to bring to OADE program?

You will need to bring your personal clothing, footwear and willingness to try new things.

4.Can I smoke during OADE program?

For reasons that include challenge of leaving everyday comforts, safety and personal health, tobacco, alcohol and drugs other than those prescribed by your doctor, are not allowed during OADE program.

5.Why should OADE program is conducted in a remote place with limited infrastructure?

In OADE experiencing is vital. If you choose a luxurious resort equipped with the appurtenances of hi-tech telecommunications, you might as well stay at the office. Spending time with Nature is a panacea for those obsessed with clocks, watches, schedules, lists, calendars, appointment books, organizers, deadlines ----all the visible sign of human "mechanical time".
