Advanced Lead Belay

Have you been lead climbing for a bit but are looking to gain confidence in managing tricky belay situations? Check out our Advance Lead Belay clinic to hone your lead belay skills and improve your belay confidence!

In this class you'll build on the skills learned in our Learn to Lead class. You'll refine your belaying abilities, learn how to manage weight differences and provide soft, comfortable catches no matter who you might be belaying. We'll go over height considerations and how you'll adjust your style based on wall features and hazards, and practice managing tricky scenarios like ledges, roofs, and when you can't see your climber. This class is perfect for those who recently took the Learn to Lead class and are looking to improve their belay skills.
