Michael’s love for the outdoors and survival training continues to grow. Subsequently, Michael went on to establish the Redbeard Survival School.
His Survival Training
Michael received his first knife at 4 years old. His grandfather taught him basic woodsmanship along with trapping and fishing. Michael quickly began to become more interested in wilderness living and survival. Later, he realized that teaching wilderness survival was his life’s passion, while serving in the Canadian Army. He quit the army in 2014 after 3 deployments to open his own survival school which became fully operational in 2016. Wanting to push further his instructions quality, he joins the 45 days instructor program with Sigma 3 where he graduated proudly.

He is qualified in winter survival, primitive skills, search-and-rescue, with additional skills in TCCC (Tactical combat casualty care), TIOP (Tactical Intelligence Operator).
His Survival School
Michael knew he would own a survival school since his childhood. He established the Redbeard Survival School in Quebec, Canada in 2016. The mission of Redbeard Survival is to educate amateurs and professionals in all fields, including police and military bodies, to avoid any situation of survival. The school states that by learning the basics of survival, students will become a key element in an emergency situation, preventing putting your life or that of your loved ones at risk. The approach that Redbeard Survival employs is based on live experiences and adapted to the reality of today. They also look at primitive techniques, while valuing modern techniques, so that students can be ready for any emergency situation.
Thus, we welcome Michael to the Sigma 3 Survival family!
