Beginners' Climbing Session (Week 1, Session B)

Please sign-up here for a beginners' climbing session at the sports centre. You don't need an LUMC membership to come along.

You will be taken through the basics of gear, knot-tying, climbing techniques, 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 itself is free, and 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, can be paid for as part of a "15 climbs for the price of 10" pass, or costs £5.10 for a single session. There is no cost for the gear loan.

Please arrive for your session on time, and dressed for sport. You may be required to show your ticket at the door, so please have it readily accessible. If for some reason you can no longer attend your session, let us know so we can offer the place to someone else!
