ML, SPA and MIA Refresher Courses

I've been a client of Mark's on multiple occasions. He has decades of experience climbing and it shows. He doesn't just show you how to do things, he helps you to understand why and when you should do them. My climbing grades reached an all time high under Mark's instruction. Thats really all that needs to be said.

I had the privilege of climbing with Mark for two months and I quickly learned that he possess the perfect mix of rock and book smarts. Not only is he one of the best climbers I have ever met, but he has the education and training to translate complex physical and mental climbing concepts into material that is easily absorbed by those who are new to the sport. At the same time, I was also able to observe Mark engage his skills in ways that challenged even the most seasoned climbers in my group. Do yourself a favor, climb with Mark and find out why he is a great instructor and guide!
