Coaching Progression

Obviously, when you work part time at a climbing wall, unlimited free access is a bonus. Better still though is seeing some of your students really progress.

A couple of weeks ago I was working with some of the 'Rock Gods'. These are kids who just come to the club sessions, maybe once a week or less for two hours. They all lead at least 6b and and boulder at V5 or more. It really makes you work hard to to try and keep up with them!

At a more relaxing level, I was working this week with a brother and sister doing some of their early leads. I taught them to tie knots about a year ago and now I'm helping them work as a team leading 5's on the top wall.

It's all very satisfying.
