Engineering course - bouldering
Bouldering is the largest part of the climb in our facility and therefore we have chosen to focus our technology courses on just bouldering. One technology courses are for adults en 6 timmar lång kurs uppdelat på tre tillfällen. Att lära sig klätterteknik är en investering i ett livslångt klättrande. Vissa har det naturligt, andra tränar upp det. De flesta av oss är dock överens om att det är svårt att se oss själva klättra och att ett extra par ögon kan vara ovärdeligt i inlärningen av nya rörelser. På teknikkurserna så får ni hjälpa av våra duktiga tränare som med sina ögon, och sin förståelse för klättring tillsammans med en växande övnings repertoar hjälper er att se klättringen ur en annan vinkel.
Who can go the course?
Technical courses are adapted to the group. Our coaches read and listen where you are as climbers and what you are curious about. Then they add the level of all the passes to fit the group. If it's a spread group, we'll find a common denominator where everyone gets out of the course. By letting us know before the level you are on, or if you have specific requests, we can easily give you the tips you want. As the level of the course is adjusted, all climbers, regardless of the level, can apply for the course. The more advanced climbers are encouraged to book a private course where we can put all the exercises at a higher level.
Course structure
Part 1 - Security
On the first occasion, we keep focus on security. We are talking about fall technology, fall zone and spotting. For beginners, we learn ways to get down from walls, identification of risky relocations, correct fall technology and fall angle. We practice the basic spotting of climbers, but the focus is on making the climber safer in their cases and landings. For those who have been climbing for a while, we look at risky relocations and risk positions, looking at strategies to avoid bad cases (if possible) and to conduct a risk assessment. We are looking closely at spotting of moves and angles to improve our ability even there.
At opportunity 1, we also review how bouldering goes for those who are new. We speak concepts like problems, handles, footsteps and basic names of movements.
It is also here that the coaches listen to the group to find the right level for the upcoming technology pass.
Part 2 technology
Part two is adapted to the level and interest of the group. It can range from basic technology to problem solving strategies or exercises for longer-term development. During the pass, we warm up together, go through a couple of workshops with technicians and then climb out in the hall. In addition to the workshops that are common to the group, the climber can also get individual tips on how to improve his climbing.
In the family course, we focus on teaching the exercises in such a way that the family can then continue with them on their own. We continue to work with security in the hall, fall zones, fall technique and spotting of climbers.
Part 3 - Sustainably climbing
During the last part of the course, we focus on sustainability. We want everybody who wants to climb their entire life also get the prerequisites for this. We use injury statistics to identify the most common climatic damage and assume them. For adults, this means that we are looking at exercises in the gym, or by the climbing wall, which gives basic strengths. We also work with mobility in leadership that often requires this in climbing.
In the family course, we will instead learn the coordination exercises. This then children of growing age can get a lot of learning to touch their own body. Coordination is central to climbing and is therefore also suitable for our adult participants.
How do I apply for a course?
Ibland så lägger vi ut kursdatum på hemsidan som alla är välkomna att söka. Om det inte finns tillgängliga datum så mejla oss en förfrågan på skane@klattercentret.se. Om ni är en grupp om två till tre personer som är intresserade så kan vi antingen lägga upp en privatkurs för er eller öppna upp en kurs under dagar och tider som passar er och våra instruktörer.
