This FUNdamentals Workshop is aimed at climbing instructors and coaches but also attended by climbers who want to get there kids into climbing and help them progress.

This is a practical workshop that explore how to better adapt your delivery when working with children across a broad band of ages. This is designed to complement other FUNdmanentals workshops and across the entire spectrum of climbing qualifications. There is no mimum grade requirement and participants do not have to take part in climbing or practical drills.

Content:
- coaching children compared to group management or instruction
- how children learn compared to adults and the considerations for group leaders
- how to deliver technical, tactical and appropriate psychological coaching to children
- what is appropriate physical training to undertake with under-18s

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.
