Beginners Climbing Courses The Beginners Climbing Course is a 6-week introductory course designed to teach you the basic skills and knowledge required to climb. We will cover all the areas that you need to know, from the basics of warming up, putting harnesses on and belaying, right up to the skills required to boulder, traverse and to climb the roped routes here at the centre. Some people use the 6 week course as an induction to climbing so that they can come climbing unsupervised in the climbing wall, other people use it as an introduction to climbing as a whole. We are a NICAS approved centre, a scheme aimed at 7year olds upwards, which introduces the skills of climbing in a progressive log book style scheme. Each level takes approximately ten hours of climbing, each getting progressively harder. Although aimed at 7 years upwards, mid teens and adults use it as a nice progression scheme for their learning too.
