Class Reviews
Booked a lead climbing course with Dan and had an amazing experience! He was very thorough, easy to understand and answered every question we had. Came into the course with some understanding of lead climbing and now feel much more confident in anchor building and safety. Highly recommend!

I had a one on one outdoor lead climbing class and it was an awesome experience. Lead climbing always made me nervous to consider, but Dan's confident and calm approach helped me gain confidence as well. Everything was explained well so that I was able to reason through it on my own without too much trouble. The day flew by and I learned how to lead climb, belay, build anchors, and clean and rappel.

Our 17 year old wanted to work on transferring his skills safely from the climbing gym to the outdoors. He is a pretty high-level climber 5.12 indoors. He had an amazing experience, learned so much, and felt extremely safe, even wore facemasks all day. He can't wait to go again, and we highly recommend the Denver Climbing Company for all levels.
