Femme Foundations 1.0 (Route Climbing Focused)

Femme Foundations 1.0 is targeted towards the beginner femme climber who has had little to no instruction on technique. This clinic will focus on the fundamental aspects of technique that include dialing in footwork, utilizing various hip shapes. Furthermore, we will focus on introducing each client to general strength training (using the weight room) and hang-boarding so that each client feels more knowledgeable and empowered with these tools. This workshop will utilize route climbing (although only 1/4 up the wall), and bouldering to help us learn and get the most feedback possible to each client.

Must be top rope belay certified at G1 prior to the clinics

Femme Foundations 2.0 (Route Climbing Focused)

Femme Foundations 2.0 (route climbing focused) is target for intermediate femme climbers (5.10-5.11) who want to learn how to expand their technique into more advanced skills and work on applying these more advanced techniques efficiently. We will solidify footwork and hip utilization, but will focus more heavily on utilizing upper body efficiency, practicing various pacing while climbing, integrating more momentum and getting more comfortable actively resting on route.

Additionally, we will focus on cultivating a growth vs. fixed mindset while we work on expanding our comfort zones whether it’s while leading, top roping, or trying hard up high and getting more comfortable feeling pumped.

Participants do not need to be lead certified.

Femme Foundations 2.0 (Bouldering Focused)

Femme Foundations 2.0 (bouldering focused) is target for intermediate femme climbers (V4-V6) who want to learn how to expand their technique into more advanced skills and work on applying these more advanced techniques efficiently. We will solidify footwork and hip utilization, practice integrating more momentum within our climbing and developing the skill of simply trying hard.

Additionally, we will focus on cultivating a growth vs. fixed mindset while we work on expanding our comfort zones whether on harder boulders, or trying hard up high and getting more comfortable being able to give closer to 100% effort.

We will spend our sessions together climbing and learning in the bouldering area.
