The BMC is really excited to support the Women’s Climbing Symposium this year by subsidising and running a BMC FUNdamentals 1 course available to anyone attending this year’s WCS.
The BMC FUNdamentals 1 course enables you to learn about and teach the basic movement
principles in climbing. It will help you structure climbing sessions to include warm ups and teach movement on and off the wall for balance, awareness of centre of gravity, footwork and using handholds. On this course we develop games and other exercises to teach these topics in fun and engaging ways.
This course also forms part of the Mountain Training coaching scheme pathway. So, if you are interested in pursuing more courses to become a qualified coach or if you are wondering if you would like to start within the climbing coaching and instructing world, this is a great step. There is no assessment associated with this course.
Fundamental movement skills form part of the Youth Physical Development Model, which is a pathway for anyone to follow to reach their genetic potential in sport. We have taken this principle and applied it to climbing; what we cover on this course is the foundation for anyone, whether they become a boulderer, sport climber, trad climber, competition climber or alpinist.
