Please sign-up here for a beginners' climbing session at the sports centre. This session is for those of you that have never climbed before, or for the people that haven't climbed with ropes for a long time and needs a refresher! There are also some "learn to lead" tickets for those that can top-rope belay (and are signed off at the uni wall), and can comfortably climb 6a.
You will be taken through the basics of gear, knot-tying, and belaying. You will also be informed about how to keep yourself and others safe whilst at the wall, which can be applied to other indoor centres and outside as well as the Lancaster University Sports Centre. After one session, you will not be able to climb without supervision; it can take two to three sessions to learn the necessary techniques in order to climb safely.
The training is run by exec and experienced LUMC members. You will be expected to pay for your own wall entry; this is free for gold gym membership holders, or costs £3 for a single session. There is no cost for the gear loan.
Please arrive for your session 5min early, so that you can pay for your entry before the session start, and come dressed for sport. If for some reason you can no longer attend your session, let us know so we can offer the place to someone else!
