CLIMBING RETREATS in Spain

GUIDING

-ALL INCLUSIVE- RETREAT

Join us in our ~all inclusive~ climbing retreat and improve your skills from a holistic perspective, where not only will you work your physical and mental strengths, but also your technique and wellness. We provide you the perfect atmosphere to grow not only as a climber, but also as a person, while also getting to meet new friends in one of the world’s most impressive and varied countries to climb.

In this retreat we will teach you a variety of different activities, drills and exercises that will help you to learn more about yourself. We will study your strengths and weaknesses to determine the best program to continue to improve your climbing. Every one of our guests will receive personalized advice, feedback, and a five week training program at the resolution of the retreat. The best part? There is no minimum level of ability needed to join us, because we will adapt the training, the crag and the content to you and your abilities!

Sport climbing, multi-pitch, yoga, meditation, fear management, natural movement and hiking, are some of the activities you will get to do in our retreat. Choose among the different locations and dates that we offer.


TRAINING

We take our jobs seriously, and as such we are constantly learning and researching the newest and most effective ways to train. By working with us, you can be assured the plan you will be following is as up to date and relevant to your goals as possible. Questions? We encourage you to ask us any you may have about the how, the why, and then when about our programs. No secrets.

Every exercise has a purpose. Forget about random exercises that might cause you nothing but frustration, or even worse, injury. We believe in customized training plans and we will do our best to create one tailored perfectly to you.
