About
FUNdamentals of Climbing 1
The BMC FUNdamentals of Climbing 1 course is a primarily practical course covering “What to Coach”. Aimed towards climbing coaches, schoolteachers, and youth workers – anybody coaching somebody in climbing skills. The course is a requirement for the Mountain Training coaching pathway qualifications and for coaches delivering the NICAS schemes. It is also highly recommended for anybody working in a commercial climbing wall
Bring your climbing shoes and chalk (and harness and belay device if the centre allows roped climbing) and be ready to get on the wall. Don’t worry, you will not be expected to climb super hard but we find you get the most out of these courses by getting stuck in and having FUN! However, there is no requirement to climb, so if you are injured or would prefer not climb you are still very welcome to attend the course.
The course is full with useful, practical information and content to help you coach, and maybe even help your own climbing! The learning outcomes for day are that you will be able to:
- Describe the essential principles of the LTPD model.
- Demonstrate and explain basic coaching pedagogy.
- Structure an appropriate warm up.
- Explain, demonstrate and evaluate key climbing movement principles.
- Identify and apply appropriate activities to develop the FUNdamentals of climbing movement.
If you have any questions then please get in touch, more information can be found on the BMC website
