How it works
Our meetups are peer-led, which means that unless you have signed up for a paid course, there is no formal instruction. The ethos of Womenclimb is around sharing skills and learning, so you can ask questions of those around you to learn more. You are responsible for your actions and your own decision-making. If you feel you might be dependent on someone else for your safety (tying in and belaying) you can sign up for a course to consolidate the basics.
