Choosing a Gap Year program is no simple task, especially when there are so many different options available. So, we decided to put together a little list of reasons why Warriors should be your first choice! 

Warriors Academy is accredited by the International Gap Year Association

This means that we have passed rigorous health and safety standards and tests, giving you the peace of mind that you are dealing with a credible and professional organisation. 

We have been around for a long time

Warriors Academy has been successfully facilitating Gap Year programs for the last 18 years and has had over 450 students cross our paths, which is an impressive feat. 

Warriors Academy is International and Multicultural

We have created an environment where you will be exposed to different people, experience different cultures and ways of life. This will give you a unique understanding of the world around you, help with international networking and will shape you into a global citizen with an open perspective on life. 

Warriors Academy provides a comprehensive variety of training, activities, experiences and travel

Our Warriors will be given the opportunity to travel and experience all that South Africa and its neighbouring countries have to offer. From kloofing, to hiking, to bungee jumping we take our Warriors on an adventure of a lifetime. Each activity will be challenging both mentally and physically, but you will come out the other side stronger, more self-aware and confident. 

All our programs are guided by Rudi Viljoen, an internationally renowned life coach and human behaviour specialist 

Throughout the program, our Warriors will be mentored and guided. They will be taught about self-mastery, emotional fitness, and how to deal with the challenges that life with throw at them. We are focused on helping to develop independence and emotional maturity in our Warriors while giving them the skills needed to adapt and thrive in this fast-paced and challenging world.

We are an International Adventure and Outdoor Training Institution

Our two-year Multi-Activity Instructor training program is the first of its kind. It is the only program that offers an array of training activities and facilitates the application of this training as part of the program. If you are interested in pursuing a career in the outdoor and adventure tourism industry, this is the program for you.

Warriors Academy is ideal for school leavers

Not sure what you want to do after school, you aren’t alone. Join us on a journey of self-discovery, we incorporate career guidance into our program and ultimately help our Warriors find the right path for them. 

The highly qualified staff at Warriors Academy

Our team is passionate about the growth and development of young people. We have a well-rounded team that each has a specific set of strengths. Not only will they safely manage all activities, but there are able to coach, guide and help the Warriors along the way, physically, emotionally and mentally. 

Warriors Academy gap year consists of four 7 week- stand-alone programs

Not able to do a full Gap Year? No problem at all, join one of our 7-week Quests throughout the year. 

Once you become a Warrior, you become part of a family 

Your time at the Warriors Academy will be something that sticks with you for the rest of your life, not only the memories and the experience but the people as well. You will make life-long friends and will always be part of our extended Warriors family.
