A great day out learning bouldering in the fantastic Peak District

My partner and I had a great day out learning bouldering in the fantastic Peak District. Ben's instruction was top notch and he was very poatient with us. He has so much experience and his teaching skills were superb. We never felt rushed and he was very encouraging and explained everything really well. You can tell he is passionate about this sport and he is great to spend time with too. Thanks Ben

Thank you Michael. You both did incredibly well and hope you enjoy the rest of your climbing journey. I hope to see you again next time you are in the Peak District :)

Multi discipline climbing course

I really couldn’t have asked for more from an intro to outdoor climbing and my first time climbing outdoors. Ben is a fantastic instructor - he immediately puts you at ease - and is knowledgeable, encouraging and kind. I learned loads, had so much fun and felt truly encouraged and inspired to go out climbing by myself. Ben’s joy and enthusiasm for all things outdoors and his generosity with his time, equipment and knowledge made for a very inspiring weekend of which I really hope to have more! Highly recommend and thanks again Ben!

Ella, thank you for the kind words. I really enjoyed our few days out climbing and you both did amazingly well. I hope to catch up with you both again if you are ever in the area :)
