Technique 1
When people take up climbing for the first time, they experience this as a rather physical sport. Which it is, or at least partly. More than a physical sport, however, it is a technical sport.
In order to start climbing, you do not really have to be very strong. Technique, tactics and mental control are far more important. Sport climbing means you are playing with your balance. Or, according to David Van Reybrouck: “Climbing is vertical ballet”.
In this course (4 lessons), you will be provided with essential tips and tricks to rapidly improve your climbing skills. You will be taught the basic techniques in order to learn to climb as efficiently as possible. To this end, attention will be paid to placing your feet, shifting your balance, and frontal versus inwardly turned climbing. By the end of the course you will have acquired all the basic skills required to climb efficiently. Your climbing buddies will be amazed at your fast progress!
This course is also an excellent preparation for the Olympos lead climbing course.
