The instructor's approach

Climbing Courses Chamonix
the instructor's method

Most climbers who plateau share the same problem: incorrect habits built without supervision. It's not a strength issue — it's a technical deficit that an expert external eye can identify and correct quickly.

My degree and experience have given me precise analytical tools. I don't just say "lift your foot" — I observe why your body does what it does and help you correct it durably, with exercises adapted to your climbing style.

On a course, you don't leave with a list of generic exercises. You leave with a clear understanding of your blockers and new physical sensations to keep progressing.

🎯

Level assessment

Analysis of your climbing style from the very first route to pinpoint exactly where to focus.

📹

Video review

Your sequences filmed and analysed to objectify technical faults invisible to the naked eye.

🧗

Targeted drills

Footwork, hip position, fall management — precise and progressive exercises.

Personalised follow-up

Individual coaching on every route, with feedback adapted to your climbing style.

Included in the price

  • CE-certified helmet
  • Harness (adult or child)
  • Belay device, rope, quickdraws
  • Instructor supervision

Your instructor

Alexis, climbing instructor in Chamonix

Qualified — Pro Card N° 07419ED0284

A passionate climber since childhood, I turned that passion into a profession by earning a Sports Science Degree (STAPS) specialising in Climbing and my official state instructor card, issued by the French Ministry of Sports.

I guide climbers of all levels — from first-time climbing introductions and family outings to advanced athletes looking to break technical plateaus. My goal: that you leave every session with real progress and genuine enjoyment.

Every outing is prepared carefully: site inspection, gear check (harnesses, helmets, rope, carabiners, quickdraws), weather assessment. Safety is the foundation of every session.

From age 5

Minimum accepted age

100%

Safety guaranteed

Insurance & liability

I hold Professional Liability Insurance (RC Pro) covering all my instructing activities. Participants must have personal insurance covering outdoor rock climbing. If you don't, let me know when booking — I can arrange cover through my own RC Pro policy.
