Women’s Adventure Club: Learn to Lead ClimbSaturday 24 January | Beacon Climbing Centre
Women’s Adventure Club is taking on Learning to Lead Climb this month at Beacon Climbing Centre.
These sessions are designed for women who are confident top-rope climbers and want to take the next step into lead climbing and lead belaying, or for those who already lead but would like a skills refresher in a calm, supportive environment.
Sessions are led by Emily Whitefoot, (CWDI/RCI) in very small groups to allow plenty of individual coaching.
Session times
Two identical sessions available:
Morning: 10.00am – 1.00pm
Afternoon: 2.00pm – 5.00pm
Group size: Maximum 4 women per session
What the session will cover
Content will be tailored to the group, but will typically include:
Lead climbing safety principles
Lead belaying
Clipping techniques and rope management, ghost leads
Managing slack and communication between climber and belayer
