FUNdamentals of Climbing workshops
The FUNdamentals of Climbing workshops are aimed at anyone who coaches or leads climbing sessions, indoors or outside. They also form part of Mountain Training’s coaching pathway. Whether you’re a parent or youth worker, a full-time climbing coach, a CWI, RCI, RCDI award holder or an MCI working out on our high mountain crags, or guiding in the Alps, these workshops will be useful to you. Good technique and movement are the bedrock of climbing. These three workshops progressively explore climbing movement.'

Client Reviews
This week Hannah and Ben went to Leeds and completed their BMC Fundamentals of Climbing 2 and 3 workshops and Foundation Coach Training module. They learnt so much and their brains are fit to burst with new knowledge and ideas! 💡
Huge thanks to Andy @climb_for_life1 for being the most inspiring coach and trainer! 🤩👏 We are so excited for the future of @climbhitchin
Hannah and Ben. December 2020
Really fun courses to get involved with and professionally run by Andy. Would recommend to anyone!

Hi Andy,
I’d like to thank you for the BMC FUNdamentals courses this week. I had a really good time and learned a lot. Plus it was fun!
Cheers Andy. Top day👍👍
Bren, BMC FUNdas 1 at Rokt, Brighouse, December 2019
I really like the way you delivered the course. The way you broke things down and gave us the time to think through and apply what we had learned really helped it to sink in. I can see now how to use that in my own teaching. I look forward to booking on another course with you in the future. All the best, Jonathan.
BMC FUNdamentals, July 2019.
Many thanks for running the FUNdamentals course yesterday. I have already had extremely positive feedback from the members of staff that attended. Andy delivered a highly interesting and practical workshop. We would be extremely happy for him to return to run similar courses in the future.'
