EXCO 822 - Intermediate Climbing

1 credit
This ExCo is intended for people with some climbing experience who are looking to break into higher grades and learn more formal technique. The course will be ideal for people who climb around a V2-V3 (Intermediate - / intermediate) level, or for those who have taken the beginner climbing ExCo at some point. In this class, students will learn and practice advanced techniques in climbing. Each class will focus on a different technique or skill to help climbers overcome plateaus and get to a higher level of climbing. We will discuss techniques, demonstrate how to put them into practice, and give climbers structured time to implement each technique. We will also give students skills and information to help them train for climbing on their own, so they can continue to improve after the ExCo has ended.
