Mountain Training Rock Skills courses provide a progressive introduction to the basic skills and techniques of rock climbing, which will help you stay safe, enjoy climbing to the full and provide the foundation required for participation and development of your own rock climbing activites.
Climbing Experience Required:
The Rock Skills Introduction is your key to getting started! No previous experience of climbing is required to attend our Rock Skills Introduction course because the content is aimed at complete beginners.
We can provide all the climbing gear you need, harnesses, helmets, ropes and more - you just need an appropriate pair of shoes - you might think a snug fitting pair of trainers is OK but a pair of climbing shoes makes a big difference if you have or can borrow a pair.
During this one-day course we will cover:
Background and Planning
Climbing Skills
Footwear and Equipment
Technical Skills
Environmental Knowledge
Hazards and Emergency Procedures
And by the end of the day you can expect to:
Have covered the course content in a safe and enjoyable outdoor environment and classroom-style setting
Have climbed outside for a good proportion of the day on an appropriate crag
Be in a strong position to take a climbing wall belay test
Be ready to attend a Rock Skills Intermediate course
