Itinerary

Day 1: Beyond The Basics | Advanced Sport Climbing Workshop
This course will be focused on climbing harder on outdoor leads, falling and projecting mindset, giving soft catches and everything you need to feel good about moving above the bolts and trying your hardest! If you’re still new to outdoor leading, this could be a day where you get a bunch of pitches in leading and belaying and maybe even take your first outdoor fall. We’ll cover anchors and cleaning towards the end of the day.

Day 2: Trad Climbing Clinic or Continuing Sport Climbing Progression
This day we will introduce placing your own trad gear on lead and the mindset it takes to push yourself on your gear. We’ll introduce general crack climbing techniques as well as gear strategy, how to place good gear, finding the stances to place gear and even potentially taking some falls on gear! If you wanted to skip the trad workshop, you could continue working on bolted sport projects with another instructor that day.

Day 3: Hybrid Workshop Day:
Multi Pitch, Self Rescue or Continuing Education on above topics. This will be a day where you can pick a specific discipline and continue focusing on that or choose to dive into a new topic such as multi pitch systems or rope rescue systems. The idea of the 3rd day is to polish up what you’ve been the most excited about working on or add in some new skills to focus on.

Kevin Heinrich

I grew up mostly in the North Eastern US but began traveling and climbing after high school and never looked back. I’ve been lucky to climb in over 10 countries and have done many first ascents on 3 continents. Now I mostly travel in my janky van in the Great American West with occasional trips abroad. I’m surprised to say I’ve been guiding for nearly a decade on rock, ice, mountains, and skis but now mostly focus on delivering highly personalized and precise rock climbing instruction.

It would be fun to list more accomplishments but I truly don’t think that’s what climbing is about. My goal is to be a damn good teacher of the skills people need to prepare for and take on some of the biggest challenges of their lives; not so they can brag about it on Instagram or in a website About page :), but so they learn about themselves, the people around them, and the world we live in.

I’m an AMGA Certified Rock Guide and have some expensive other bits of paper too. I pride myself in thinking hard about the skills I teach and how best to present them to you in a way that’s clear, concise, actionable, and appropriate for your skill level. Above all else I care. I care about you as a human being and hope we can get outside and learn from each other soon!
