If you’re not based in the UK, we’d definitely still be in a position to consider your application. However, we find that our highest quality of service can best be delivered to those who are able to attend in-person sessions in London, and can train with a smaller time difference compared to the UK time.
Therefore, applications from those in the UK, and more specifically those who can travel to London, will be prioritised.

So long as you’re accustomed to 15hrs of focused training per week, you’re not too old at all! If you’re an older climber without a strong background of intense training, we’d recommend our personalised training plans.

Our first recommendation is to get in touch with a physio to ensure you’ve got a solid plan for recovery - we’d recommend @theclimbingphysio. Aside from that though - your training with us can be put on pause whenever you need; we have a flexible freeze policy allowing you to pause and unpause your payments up to 12 weeks in a year. Have a read of our terms and conditions to get more detail on this!

We believe a crucial part of training consistently and sustainably is that the training you do is enjoyable! There will be plenty of aspects of the training which we expect you’ll have loads of fun with, and there will be regular reload weeks in which you’ll get to simply relax and climb for fun without any particular focus. If you’re finding the training to be hard work and unenjoyable, the first thing we’d recommend is that you discuss with your coach, who would either discuss how to find the joy in what you’re working on, or would adjust your plan so you enjoy it more!
