BMC Ready to Rock (Women's Course)

There is no experience required for these courses! A day of climbing outside with other Women. They're fun and freindly courses that begin equipping you with rock climbing skills. 

What do they cover?

A variety of topics will be covered during the day as well as offering a fun taster to outdoor climbing. Topics may include:

• Outdoor rock climbing techniques
• Belaying and tying in to climb
• Types of trad climbing equipment
• Building belay basics
• Using guidebooks
• Seconding/top roping

Who are they for?

These courses are ideal for novice climbing club members, students, parents and individuals who may have had the odd taster of climbing outdoors and wish to gain key safety skills at an excellent price. They may also be a good precursor for people contemplating the Rock Climbing Instructor Award training. 

Who will be the instructing?

The instructors for these courses are very experienced women climbers who hold an MCI or WMCI and are members of the AMI (Association of Mountaineering Instructors). The name and contact of the instructor delivering the course can be found next to the venue they are delivering the course.

Cost

Courses cost only £60 per person, with a maximum of 8 people on the course. 

Duration

The course will run from 90.00 am until 17.00 pm. We will meet at Caffi Caban, Brynrefail, at 9am for a coffee and chat, before heading out to a crag to climb at. We will drive from the cafe to the crag, a maximum of 30 minutes from the cafe, but normally closer.
