Develop a solid foundation in this Beginner Climbing Skills Workshop. This engaging session focuses on essential techniques and knot-tying that every new climber needs to master. Learn to tie into the rope and belay with confidence, ensuring a smooth transition to outdoor climbing. This workshop not only builds good habits but also prepares you for advanced skills like lead climbing. Whether your passion lies in rock, ice, or mountain climbing, you'll gain the core skills necessary for your climbing journey. We offer introduction to climbing classes anytime the weather is nice. We generally recommend this as a single full day so we can cover as much of the skills as possible but more experienced indoor climbers or those with some previous experience may find a shorter day adequate.
