TESTIMONIALS

“Holly has a wealth of climbing instruction and coaching experience across a wide range of diverse students. She is 100% focused on helping climbers to improve their knowledge, skills and technique and is now applying all her training and learning in the delivery of these two qualifications. Holly combines a passion for climbing with a well-developed teaching style that takes full account of individual learning preferences; she is calm, encouraging, analytical and fun to be with. Personally I benefited enormously from Holly’s mentorship as I progressed through the RCI and RCDI qualifications, taking valuable learning from assisting in sessions, and watching her teach and coach. She’s helped me on my way in developing my second career, you won’t regret booking Holly to help your progression.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Holly several times during my RCI consolidation. She was a key part of my success in passing first time—I learned a huge amount from watching her work with clients of all ages and experience levels. Holly isn’t just an instructor keeping people safe on the rock; she brings a real coaching mindset to every day out, helping climbers build skill and confidence. I’d highly recommend any climber, coach/instructor spend time with Holly - you’ll always come away learning something new!”
