If you have questions please contact Brittany Griffith (brittany_griffith@hotmail.com) or me (arno@warriorsway.com). Thanks, Arno - Title: The Warrior’s Way – Decision Points Clinic - Description of clinic - A challenging climb can be mentally overwhelming until we learn how to plan well, assess the consequences accurately, make a deliberate decision to engage the climb if it is appropriate, and commit wholeheartedly to it. This clinic will help you do all of these things. You’ll learn how to chunk down a climb into smaller risk events, identify consequences, make appropriate risk decisions based on learning, and commit fully to your choices. - This clinic is not for beginners who haven’t climbed before. You must have at least 6 months of climbing experience and know the basics knots, belaying, and climbing skills. We’ll do some discussion but the clinic will consist mostly of climbing exercises. - Target Student: Need to know the basics of climbing like knots and belaying. - Equipment needed: We will be doing climbing exercises so bring your climbing gear to include a rope and draws.
