In our Academy sessions we move away from the safety skills, as these should already be established, and focus on NICAS level 5; movement coaching, strength and conditioning and the mindset and tactics of climbing at your limit. We also encourage our academy to attend another instructed session or climb independently once a week.
Academy is structured to progress young climbers ability across the board; from technical skills, strength and conditioning through to mindset and confidence both on and off the wall. Our young people are encouraged and coached to reach their potential and enjoy the journey.
These sessions are a progression from Rock Monkeys, with basic safety abilities already learnt, NICAS level 4 complete and climbers signed off for lead climbing.
