Fundamentals of Climbing Workshops

Gravity will host some ‘Fundamentals of Climbing’ workshops on 9th-10th May. These workshops are ideal for anyone who introduces novices to climbing, especially climbing instructors, youth leaders, scout leaders, and club volunteers. They introduce the basic principles of coaching climbing technique and are pre-requisites for Foundation/ Level 1 coach awards. Both Fundamentals workshops involve both classroom and practical elements. Both courses will be delivered by Rob Hunter & Angela Carlin.

These courses are not ideal if you are after something to imporve your own climbing technique. In this case, look at our coaching options.

Fundamentals of Climbing 2 Sunday 10th May 10am - 5pm (€100)
