WELCOME TO TURN LEFT ADVENTURES

At Turn Left Adventures, we train people to respond when help isn’t immediately available. Our focus is wilderness medicine education and real-world preparedness for environments where decisions matter and resources are limited.

We deliver hands-on, scenario-based training led by experienced medical professionals, equipping individuals, teams, and communities with the skills to manage emergencies with confidence. While much of our work takes place in outdoor settings, our mission goes beyond adventure. We prepare people to care for others when it counts.

DISCOVER OUR ADVENTURE

Turn Left Adventures is built on the belief that competence creates confidence. Our courses and experiences are designed to develop practical skills, strong decision-making, and leadership under pressure.

In addition to our medical training programs, we offer guided experiences and Adventure Therapy trips that combine clinical insight, real-world environments, and intentional challenge to support growth, resilience, and meaningful change.

This is not about escaping life for a weekend. It’s about stepping into it more prepared, more capable, and more confident.

Founder

Eli LaMouria

Hi, I’m Eli, founder of Turn Left Adventure & Education. I grew up in Southern California, one of six kids, spending summers in Yosemite and days at the beach—developing a deep love for the outdoors and all things water.

I began guiding in 2003 with a Christian adventure camp, leading whitewater, climbing, and canyoneering trips. Over the years, I’ve guided across the U.S. and China, completed NOLS’ Rescue Semester, and earned certifications in High Angle and Swift Water Rescue. In 2020, I started working in EMS and have spent the past three years teaching wilderness medicine nationwide. I’m now finishing business school and leading Turn Left Adventures, where safety, faith, and the outdoors meet.
