Reviews
"I've been waiting for this book for a long time. Professionalism, programming, pedagogy, anchors . . . This is a comprehensive resource for understanding the complexities of teaching in the single pitch environment. Highly recommended!" -Arno Ilgner, AMGA Single Pitch Instructor and author of The Rock Warrior's Way: Mental Training for Climbers
