Learn to Belay
In this course, you’ll learn how to climb and belay each other on a rope. With these skills, you’ll be able to climb at your local roped wall on bottom ropes and progress on to sport climbing. Here in Dorset, our coast is full of stunning places to climb. We provide all the necessary safety equipment and our expertise of rock climbing.
