Outdoor Rock Climbing Work Shop

Description

Our introductory session at Benny Beg provides a solid foundation in 
safe, effective sport climbing. Participants are guided through 
essential skills in a supportive environment, ensuring they feel 
confident as they take their first steps on real rock.

Key Learning Outcomes
Safe use of equipment
Participants learn how to correctly fit a harness, helmet, and other 
personal climbing equipment, along with carrying out partner safety 
checks before leaving the ground.

Core climbing movement
Instruction covers fundamental hand and foot placements, balance, and 
body positioning. Climbers are introduced to efficient movement 
techniques that help them progress smoothly on rock.

Figure‑of‑eight knot
Everyone is taught how to tie and check the rethreaded figure‑of‑eight 
knot, the standard tie‑in knot used in sport climbing.

Belaying (where appropriate)
Depending on the group and session progress, participants may also learn 
the basics of belaying, including how to manage the rope safely and 
lower a climber under supervision.
