The curriculum
Three courses. Each one earns its hour.
Movement Fundamentals
The four-lesson primer we wish everybody started with. Footwork, body positioning, the silent two-hand swap, and how to read a slab. No gear required — bring your shoes.
View courseAnchor Building Fundamentals
The intermediate-level course on building safe, redundant, and equalized anchors. Five lessons plus an end-of-course quiz. Designed for climbers transitioning from following to leading.
View courseMulti-Pitch Leading
Six lessons plus two checkpoint quizzes on planning, leading, and managing multi-pitch terrain. The course assumes Anchor Building (or equivalent) — we don't reteach the basics.
View courseWho teaches
Climbers who still climb.
Three climbers — working guides, working climbers. Each runs one of our gyms and teaches the courses they care most about.
