48 Hours of Infantry – The Ultimate Combat Experience

Train. Adapt. Endure.

Step into the world of the infantry and experience 48 hours unlike anything you’ve done before.

This is more than a training camp. It’s an immersive experience designed to challenge your body, sharpen your mind, and expose you to practical combat skills under demanding conditions. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your resilience, improve your self-defense capabilities, or simply push yourself beyond your comfort zone, this event will leave a lasting impression.

Over the course of two days, you’ll be introduced to realistic infantry principles inspired by Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), military training methods, and modern self-protection. You’ll train with battle-effective melee weapons, develop tactical awareness, and learn to function under physical and mental pressure.

What to Expect

Throughout the camp, participants may be introduced to subjects such as:

• Infantry melee weapon skills and practical applications
• Striking, defense, and close-quarters tactics
• Tactical movement and positioning
• Camouflage, concealment, hiding, and sneaking
• Observation and situational awareness
• Teamwork and basic infantry procedures
• Combat mindset and decision-making under stress
• Physical and mental resilience exercises
• Scenario-based training in realistic environments

Rather than focusing on theory alone, the emphasis is on practical experience, adaptability, and learning by doing.

More Than Techniques

The greatest value of this camp is often not the techniques themselves but the mindset you develop.

Operating while fatigued, solving problems under pressure, working as part of a team, and stepping outside your comfort zone can fundamentally change how you approach stressful situations. Many participants leave with renewed confidence, greater discipline, and a stronger appreciation for what they are capable of achieving.

Location & Overnight Stay

The camp takes place in Esbeek, the Netherlands, where participants will experience two days of realistic outdoor training. As part of the immersive infantry experience, you will sleep outside in the woods in a simple field environment, adding an extra layer of authenticity and helping to develop resilience, adaptability, and a true expedition mindset.

An Experience You’ll Remember

The 48 Hours of Infantry is designed to be intense, demanding, and rewarding. Expect long days, challenging exercises, outdoor training, and moments that test both your physical endurance and your determination.

You won’t leave as a soldier—but you will leave with valuable skills, unforgettable memories, and a deeper understanding of yourself.

Sometimes, all it takes is 48 hours to refresh your mindset, strengthen your resilience, and take your combat skills to the next level.
