Children's Performance Climbing Coaching
By Climb Wales
Many parents who's children take up climbing could be accused of being too hard on their children. Although the aim is to encourage, children often feel forced into doing an activity and as a result, they longer enjoy it and ultimately give up climbing. The balance between encouragement and being discouraging is a very fine line when it comes to coaching children in climbing. Add to this the fact that children are more susceptible to over-use injuries which can have damaging and long-term impacts on a growing youngster, deciding to coach your own children is not a decision to be taken lightly. This is why we recommend coaching with our experienced rock climbing instructors. They are engaged with the latest research in this field and can help to tailor an optimal training course for your child. Performance climbing coaching for children is done in very small groups, either with one or two children per instructor. The goal here is look at the weaknesses in a young person's climbing ability and develop them in to a more well-rounded climber. This course is only for children who are already engaged and have a passion for climbing as the regimented drills and hard work will not be welcomed by novice climbers.
Rock Climbing Taster Session for Children
By Climb Wales
A taster session is designed to give children the opportunity to try rock climbing and see if they enjoy it without the pressure of having to accomplish anything. The session is usually only 1 to 2 hours long and focuses on getting your child as much time on the rock/wall as possible. We won't look at skills or becoming proficient at this stage, it is simply a taster session. Instead, the aim here is to get children involved in climbing games making sure, more than anything else, that they enjoy themselves and reach the end of the session feeling that they'd like to try climbing again.
