Living in the Pays du Mont-Blanc, you're close to exceptional crags. I'll help you explore them safely, whether you're a curious beginner or a climber looking to break through a technical ceiling.

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.
