Taught by Warrior’s Way trainer Lor Sabourin, this clinic addresses fear of falling and improving commitment. Participants will do falling, movement, and resting exercises and apply all learned skills to a challenging route. This will be done in small increments creating appropriate progressions for each individual student. Each student will leave with a structured method for taking appropriate risks with diminished fear.

Students learn:

• To fall safely

• To give a cushioned belay

• To distinguish between no- and yes-fall zones

• How to engage no- and yes-fall zones

• To break a climb into smaller risk events

• Better risk assessment

• How to rest effectively

• To improve breathing

• To trust the body

• To create flow and momentum

• To commit more deliberately

• To reduce fear

Prerequisites:

• Minimum 6 months climbing experience

• Climb a minimum of 5.9 in the gym without falling or hanging

• Some exercises are on toprope; some are on lead. Being able to lead climb is not required, however. If students want to lead during the clinic they must get lead certified at the gym PRIOR to the clinic date.
