It might help if you put what state you live in.

Hi,
One option is to hire a guide, or a cheaper option is to do an introduction course where you will meet other climbers wanting to get out and learn. I offer these courses in NC but would be happy to get you in touch with past clients that have just taken a course if you wish to get out and climb for free, as they are always looking for partners.

Regards,
Adam

I have taken a couple courses from Adam and patients and experience cannot be equaled. I would highly recommend Fox Mountain Guides.



Adam you owe me a dollar! :lol:

First, you need to move to a state with an elevation above 30 feet. Second, find someone who is over the age of 30 and has been climbing 10+ years. Third, become their best friend. (buying them flowers and candy may help).

I teach in Jacksonville and recommend trying the climbing wall at the South Metro YMCA if you are in this part of the state.

Oh, to be 30 years younger.
