Eddy was patient and knowledgeable, and the group was lovely too.Marc De Faria14/05/2023Such a great experience! Went for the Introduction to Outdoor Climbing session with a group of people with varying capabilities. Eddy is a great instructor and made it an awesome day for everyone. I'm now confident with lead climbing and belaying :D Highly recommend!Chie Adachi14/05/2023Eddy was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and passionate about climbing. We went as a group of 6 for the day with a range of experiences (from novice to experience) and he managed to teach us all equally about the essentials of sport climbing in Portland. It was my first outdoor climbing in the UK and I really enjoyed it thanks to Eddy. I’d definitely recommend Eddy to anyone keen to explore climbing! Simply AMAZING 🤩Stuart Kernaghan27/04/2023I had the pleasure of Eddy running my climbing wall instructor training course and what a fantastic course it was. Throughout the while course, Eddy made the course educational, fun and rewarding. From the start it was clear to see that Eddy has a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to climbing and this helped me learn new skills, both instructing and personal climbing, especially when it comes to safety. Eddy’s instruction was excellent and always had the course involved and adapting to our needs. l would highly recommend Eddy and if you can get a chance to get on one of Eddy’s course then it’ll be worth it. I will be looking at other courses Eddy runs for further development.Jason Harris04/09/2022A great day at Dancing Ledge learning rescue skills. Eddy is a great teacher; knowledgeable, fun, and thought-provoking. He gave us a great set of new skills and new uses for old ones in a useful progression that turns them into a much more useful toolkit. Thoroughly recommended for anyone who climbs a little off the beaten track.Shaun Leung23/08/2022very clear and professional guidance/teaching from Eddy. most of all he made sure we had fun and were safe and comfortable. had a great time in his one-day course. highly recommended.katie greener11/08/2022My husband Andy and I spent a wonderful day climbing on Portland with Eddy. We had a fantastic day and learned so much. We are not especially competent or confident climbers, but Eddy was so patient and taught us so much even in the few hours we were together. Eddy's' teaching style is incredible - explaining things so clearly ,giving brilliant tips and tricks to boost our ability and confidence, and he was always happy to answer questions, so we progressed a lot in a short time - he's the best guide we have ever had -and great fun too. I would highly recommend Eddy - we are going to do some more practice then will be back for another session soon.
