Get unstuck in your life and start living it on your time & terms by getting rid of the never ending rent or mortgage payments.  Retire to the country in an affordable manageable sized home. Rebuild your life in a beautiful new way.  Use that extra money & time to build the life you want.  Retire as soon as possible, make the big  J-O-B optional, recover from life disaster (including divorce), buy nicer things, take that trip you always wanted to, live off grid, be free, be independent, learn new skills, meet amazing people, build a community, help people in other countries, and more.  By getting these skills you will be empowered to live life on your terms!

A lot of people say you can't be free or are waiting for a savior or even worse,  still expecting government to get it right and come save them. You cant just sit around expecting things to get better.  You have to make your life better now.   Exit the Babylon system and Build both homes and strategies that set you free now!

This is not "escapism," "retreatism," or even "defeatism." Politics or protesting, and fighting the system do NOTHING meaningful.

Those who want real change choose to BE the change they wish to see. Engaging in building their lives by doing the HARD WORK of making freedom happen - right now, in our lifetimes.

We’re not abdicating our responsibilities to crooked politicians.

We’re taking responsibility for our own lives, our own liberties, and our own future.

And we’re staying focused on our mission of achieving lasting liberty for generations by building freedom from the ground up (literally, in the form of intentional communities).

That’s what the Tiny Giant Lifestyle is all about.

See, most people are in a reactive mindset. They’re rocked back and forth by the waves of "what’s happening now." Russia, China, Ukraine, Tragedy, Fake news, cooties-19, idiocy… Political Blunders… And around and around they go, spinning on the never-ending carousel of the 24-hour news cycle intentionally designed to manipulate your emotions, confuse your mind, and keep you trapped on the ride without ever making any progress toward your goals or liberty.


The way out of this mess is through being PROACTIVE.

Be the captain of your own ship to cut a straight course through the noisy waves of nonessential news to your destination. Block out the winds of blustering idiots nattering on about the latest gossip or scandal.

Stay on the path of freedom!

And put all of your energy and focus into building your way out of the corrupt system and into a system of liberty, peace, and voluntary cooperation.

That’s what we’re doing over here building Paid for homes, eliminating debt, growing food and building alternative economies with people like us who love to live free.

We’re not waiting for someone else to give us anything.

We’re out here experimenting and trying new things, new systems, new ways of organizing human society.

It all begins with the Terlingua School of Alternative Building


The majority of Americans do nothing more in life than pay 3 or more times a house value over 30 years and buy a car with a few nice toys to feel better.  Day after day they force themselves up to a job to make payments.  They cant pursue their dreams, travel, or seek adventure. If they show up late they are treated like a child and taking extra days off to enjoy life could cost them their home, car, spouse.  Living under a threat like this is hardly freedom.  

The new normal, at this time when the world you knew is being taken over and changed and the new normal is deception, masked censorship, and uncertain financial futures as corporations and government work together to take everything.  Nothing is more empowering freeing and certain than the ability to live debt and rent free in an insulating nontoxic AirCrete home built with your own hands.


The Great Stupid Reset, while the world bankers are planning own and control everything including you while charging you for every function of life.  The best way to win their game is not play! Between food shortages, major private business losses as well as job losses as society is forcefully restructured there stands a real possibility of another great depression.  Sounds bad, but there is also opportunity.  Own your property and the house you built and you have a very good foundation to live a great life and find the opportunity.  Exit and Build!


There truly is nothing, and I do mean NOTHING, that can set you on a better path in life than building your own home and living rent/mortgage free!   Do you love your job and life & pop out of bed excited for the day?  Was it your idea to live this way?  What would you do tomorrow, or right now for that matter, if you could do anything you wanted and there was no fall out or boss to answer to?  Where would you be?  What would you be doing?  Who would you do it with?  Just take the time and imagine that for a moment.. Go ahead!

Other workshops do not teach.  They may charge $1200 for camp fire songs, yoga, chanting, oh and AirCrete.  They build on an aircrete foundation without a footing below the frost line and that structure will surely crack.  They will charge extra for a place to put your tent and still more money for food.  All without anything that makes a modern home pleasurable.   You know, things like a toilet, bath, plumbing in general, electricity, heating, cooling, inside walls ect.. The helpers themselves do not understand safety or construction.  They are just parroting back "mix some foam with Portland" like this.  They can not teach the understanding that allows you to safely engineer and build your own home and know for sure it will function in their climate efficiently.  A home is NOT a tropical third world shell!  Its much more than that. Its your well being, safety, warmth, cool, security, appliances, and the systems that support comfortable life.  Its a place to nurture your body, mind and spirit. 

Our Workshops Goal is to Teach You Every Skill You Need to Know to Make Your  Functional Home

  • Build a Foam Generator (if you bring the parts)
  • Design & Engineer AirCrete so that it is safe and heats/cools in your climate
  • Heat load Calculation & Installing Your Air Conditioner/Heater
  • Basic Electric House Wiring
  • Wire/Breaker Sizing
  • Appropriate Wires Sizing for Loads
  • Solar Electric System Design
  • How to Locate & Install Solar Panels
  • Build Lithium Battery Packs to Save Money

  • What it really takes to grow all the food for one without purchased inputs
  • Poured Earth, Under $3 Per Sq/Ft Why its better than rammed earth, Adobe, Cob and Earth Ships
  • Into to Create an Online Business to work from Anywhere
  • How to Harvest and Use Rain Water and know how much you need and how much you can collect in your climate

Additionally, the last two days of the workshop are open for any subject the students want to cover.  Here are some topics available are in our customized personal one-on-one workshops that could be covered:

Skill Level To Attend a Workshop?  Anyone!

Terlingua School Of Alternative Building.

COVID-19 notice: This Event will be held No matter what!  I do Not subscribe to the fake news and fakes science and fake test results.

I know a second wave was planed 8 years ago and this is all lock-step propaganda.

If you are concerned, please know you will be respected & we will also respect those who choose to not wear mask.  This event is held out doors and generally there is ample distance between people.  Also bring a kn-95 dust mask, or better.  One can pretend a surgical mask is protecting you from a .00000006 nanometer virus, but a .000045 micrometer particle 750 times larger, the portland cement, will fill your nose with dust giving you grey boogers if you wear only socially-distant-mask. We definitely want you to remain healthy!

Come Join us in Beautiful Terlingua Texas near the Big Bend National & State parks.  Build new friendships, Skills, and experience the adventure of building an AirCrete Structure from the Ground up to ready to move in! 

Know that you know you can do it because you have done it!

Testimonials

Knowing something.. but doing something are two different things. I really learned a lot at the workshop. This was the most comprehensive course out there

...

I'm In the middle of a life changing event and I want to live within my means. I want to escape the oppressive State I live in. So I though of different ways to get off grid. AirCrete seems to be the most reasonable amount of work vs the amount of reward you get. AirCrete is not as easy as I thought, but its not difficult. Doing by your self is possible, but having two hands would make the work much more reasonable. Once I can leave California I plan to move to a freedom loving state to buy some land and be the first student to complete his AirCrete house. Knowing something, but doing something are two different things. I really learned a lot at the workshop. This was the most comprehensive course out there. Doing everything in one: electric, plumbing, solar, and everything. It was a great value for the money. For anyone listening. If & when you come to one of these workshops.. Its a learning working experience. You NEED to be ready to get your hands dirty. Get in the middle of the mix. If you feel like you are being left out give a polite elbow, jump in a get involved.

Ken//  Navy, Retired

We have learned so much. We cant wait to start our project and you should do it too

...

Great 2 weeks! Learned a lot about what to do and what not to do. How to keep a focused head. Meet a lot of great people. Got to build my first house . I look forward to doing this in the near future

Doctors Charlene & Ron  //  Doctor & Naturopathic Dr

I feel very confident that I can now make quality AirCrete by replicating what I was shown here.  I am very pleased with the workshop

...

I came out to do the AirCrete workshop with Mr Daniel. I stumbled across this on YouTube. It very much appealed to the self reliance. Having met him it has only reinforced that. He is a wizard when comes to construction and he's got a heart of gold. 

It was fun to me. We experimented with the mixing process and found out its probably best to not over whip it because it takes more time and its probably more dense than you are aiming for. There is a window in AirCrete. Its fairly forgiving material. Had a great time playing around with it. The unplanned lessons were good. We adjusted and fixed problems and moved on. Even with excessive handling of a batch of AirCrete it was quite resilient. I had a nice feel on my bear feet. A little spongy. I feel very confident that I can now make quality AirCrete by replicating what I was shown here. Also, I know that I can contact Mr Daniel and he will help me through a tough spot. I am very pleased with the workshop.

If you are considering doing this your future self will thank you. It was very well worth my time money & energy I put into this. I feel very confident I will have an AirCrete cabin.
