FUNdamentals of Climbing 2 in Inverness

Today I was at Inverness Leisure Centre running an MCofS FUNdamentals 2 course. The FUNdas are very much based on 'what' to coach when it comes to introducing climbing movement skills. FUNdas 2 looks at recapping FUNdas 1 level movement and Long Term Participant Development followed by purposeful warmups and climbing movement on vertical and gently overhanging surfaces including style vs technique, use of hand and food holds and tools like flagging, egyptians and twist locks. A good active day and great fun to work.
