Improve your Trad Climbing Skills

Trad Skills Courses

Whether you are new to trad climbing or have been climbing a while I offer skills courses & workshops which are aimed at sharing my 30 years trad climbing experience to help to make you a slicker & more confident climber.

To trad climb well & achieve your potential it requires a multitude of skills to work together, My aim is to break down the elements & fine tune your skills so that you cut out the faff & get more from your climbing.

Often climbers become obsessed & pre occupied with just getting physically stronger, when more often than not it is their approach, technique & mental muscles that need tuning, trad climbing is often a head game & by taking a more holistic approach & making a multitude of tiny adjustments it can offer big paybacks…

Based on this approach our skills courses & workshops are full of tips, tactics & techniques to get you climbing better.

Check out what I offer & please get in touch to discuss your aims.
