The FUNdamentals Workshops are intended for climbers, instructors, and coaches who are keen to develop climbing skills for themself, as part of technical training or as a part of a dedicated coaching sessions.
FUNdamentals 2 builds on FUNdamentals 1 where we will look at foundational techniques to enable climbers and boulders to maximise thier climbing on vertical and gently overhanging terrain. FUNDamentals 2 is the basis for progressing any climber, irrespective of the activities they ultimately engage with, be that indoor, competition, trad climbing, bouldering, sport climbing, or a combination of them all.
Content:
- Sport science applied to climbing
- Maximising resting positions
- Techniques overhanging terrain
- Feature climbing
- How to deconstruct and coach the wide variety of techniques
The workshop will be delivered in a relaxed way with plenty of chances to discuss a variety of approaches to the delivery of common climbing movements that participants can adapt to their own environment. Together we will explore and discuss how to develop climbers' movement and technique in a variety of environments which will include games-based learning and coaching drills and setups.
You'll have plenty of opportunity to take part in games and more formal coaching scenarios which will help to deepen your understanding, and, in turn make climbing and coaching easier.
You will need climbing shoes, something to take notes with and may need a harness & belay device if at a roped centre.
This course is resourced and you will receive supporting documentation to help you to deploy your new knowledge after the course.
