Award Description

This qualification trains and assesses candidates in the skills required to supervise climbers on single pitch crags and climbing walls. Common activities undertaken by Rock Climbing Instructor will be roped climbing and bouldering. This scheme does not include the skills and techniques required to teach lead climbing.

My courses aim to give candidates as much quality learning as possible. As a passionate climber myself, I've also taught others for 15 years, and love enabling people to progress in their work and personal climbing life!

Courses are female led, and gender inclusive. There will be lots of open discussions in a supportive environment, and I always aim to make everyone feel welcome, and provide an atmosphere that gets the absolute best out of people. I want to fully include all genders, those from LGBTQ+ communities, under-represented backgrounds in the outdoors, and neurodiverse people. Please let me know when booking if you have any additional needs, or would like to discuss anything before the course. 

You'll be taken through the key elements of becoming a safe and highly skilled Rock Climbing Instructor, and have lots of opportunity to practise throughout the course. We'll look at teaching and developing others as well as being a safe instructor, and you'll leave with a clear action plan and feedback moving forward.

We'll meet indoors on the first morning of the course for an informal chat about how the course will run, and then use single pitch crags around the Lakes, and visit a climbing wall for the indoor element. Crag locations vary depending on the weather and participants, and often we use a mix of north and south lakes venues, or cags on the outskirts of national park. 

Car shares can arranged, or pick ups from Keswick if you are arriving by public transport. 

Cost includes climbing wall entry for the indoor element.

If you have any questions, additional needs, or have any particular worries about these courses, then please get in touch.
