Overview

So you've mastered the basics and been on the improver sessions. The advanced clinics take your climbing to the next level - quite literally. The course starts by analysing your current technique, identifying mistakes and focusing on key areas for improvement.

Specifically, this course will:

  • Start to break down your current technique and identify areas for improvement
  • Focus on more advanced footwork with techniques such as opposition to improve stamina
  • Provide advanced advice on balance techniques to maintain control and improve stamina again
  • Explain how to "rest" while climbing
  • Identify the different techniques required between slab climbing, wall climbing and overhangs

This course is not only invaluable for those wanting to push onwards and upwards but is also great fun. Climbing has a fantastic social scene around it and the instructors love teaching the more advanced techniques where they can really get into the detail of how to climb longer, harder and with more style. This course booking is valid for two people.

Location

Our outdoor climbing courses are based in Portland, Dorset. This is a superb location either to try out climbing for the first time develop more intermediate or advanced techniques. The rock is white limestone which is nice and grippy and usually has lots of pleasant edges to hold onto. The angle varies dramatically from gentle slabs to steep overhangs depending on your level of skill, strength and confidence.

Portland is the home of Portland stone and the Isle still has active quarries on it. The old quarries and the open sea cliffs make superb climbing venues, and with locations all round the Isle you can usually get out of the wind and into the sunshine somewhere. Once there, with the sun beating down on your back and reflecting off the white stone you'll feel like you're in the Mediterranean.
