| Inclusive climbing chapter |
 |
We contributed a section on inclusive climbing practices in Alun Richardson's book "Rock Climbing for Instructors" which is widely available.
Synopsis: "Rock climbing is an exhilarating
and spectacular sport that is attracting more people than
ever before. This book is written for those climbers starting
out on their instructing career. It contains the ideas and
information that should smooth their path into the world of
instructing and guiding. However, it is also for climbers
wanting to improve their skills and gain from the author's
knowledge and experience of climbing and instructing. It goes
beyond covering the necessary skills of ropework, problem-solving
and safety, by advising on how to teach movement and help
students train effectively. Also included are sections on
communication skills, legal considerations, aid climbing and
scrambling."
