First Steps

Our First Steps course is designed for the complete beginner who wishes to learn the basics of climbing in a safe, structured environment. 

You do not need to have climbed before, but if you are a complete novice we recommend you try our ‘Taster Course’ prior to booking this one. 

Topics covered in the course are:

• Use of equipment.
• Knots for Climbers.
• Belaying Skills.
• Basic Climbing Techniques. 
  

At the end of the course we can offer a days climbing outdoors at a local crag.

For further detail please see the Outdoor Climbing factsheet.

All equipment will be provided by The Warehouse.

For clothing, don’t worry about fashion – just wear something you feel comfortable in that does not restrict your movement.  The course is designed for over 16’s.
