April 10, 2019Out on the steep rock like real life, a real-time lesson on your way of thinking, a lesson for quick reactions, and a direct lesson about the consequences of your decisions. Any decision that you will take will immediately reveal its results.
1. Climbing develops the generosity and ability to adapt to difficult conditions as well as overtaking them.
Overcoming your fear is a life skill as well as an integral component of success. Whether it is the fear of the unknown or the fear of starting something or the fear of failure. All the successful people have learned from an early age to overcome their fears and not to be the fear of stopping to move their lives to achieve their goals. Your children are encouraged to let their “cholera”, termed psychology terminology as “comfort zone”, to cope with their fears and to constantly try to get better! This will create a strong character and bravery. Their reward will be to take advantage of the opportunities presented to them, to learn to overcome nervousness and not to avoid going beyond their limits to become better.
2. Climbing promotes healthy lifestyle choices.
Have you ever seen an obese climber? Have you ever seen a climber smoke two-packs of cigarettes a day? Perhaps at one time … Rock climbers love agility, flexibility, muscle strength, and endurance. They hate obesity, laziness, and weakness. Climbers are usually very healthy people, eat healthy and are interested in all kinds of fitness, cycling, yoga or surfing. To be successful climbers, they must be well nourished, drink water, and build a lean muscular body. Being in shape and strong spiritual clarity are going a long way to making success on the slope. If your children are climbing, we will give them a reason to exchange the various unhealthy snacks for fruits, game machines for a bicycle and create their love for activities.
3. Climbing is a sport for your child with an adventure that can be learned with low risk in a very controlled environment.
Good or bad, climbing has the reputation as an extreme sport. Although this is certainly true for elite sports professionals, climbing is actually less extreme. Beginners climbers are trained tied up with a rope (the rope runs through an anchor above the ascent route). When tied up with a rope in a controlled environment such as a closed space with cramped walls and a special layer of protection, it is virtually zero haziness! Mountain biking, kayaking, skiing, surfing, etc. are all much more dangerous activities than climbing. This makes climbing truly unique in the world of adventure sports and you can be trained without the risk of serious injury.
4. Climbing teaches discipline and concentration.
It is widely accepted that self-discipline and ability to concentrate are the attributes associated with the most successful people in the world. Climbing is a great way to convey the basic principles of discipline because it requires your full concentration to achieve your goal. Your children will quickly learn that climbing narrows the world in a single line on the rock. No matter what’s going on around them, intelligent targeting, coordination of hands and feet requires discipline and concentration to achieve the goal that is none other than the top !!!
5. Climbing teaches lifelong skills such as knot bindings, tracking, crashing, etc..
Sailing, rowing, and many other sports … the skills developed by climbing are applied throughout the range of outdoor sports. Knotting, along with reading a map and using a compass are basic skills developed in outdoor sports. Learning to read a vertical rock and choose the basic path, as well as crashing, are crucial skills required in a rescue. All these skills are done by climbing supplies for your children who will stay with them for a lifetime.
6. Climbing is affordable.
The cost of starting climbing courses is extremely low and for the beginning, you do not need investment to buy equipment! Your children can be trained by having fun using the necessary equipment offered by our school for the purposes of the courses.
7. Climbing is non-commercial.
If you also get tired of sports trading, from professional athletes who have forgotten the joy of sports and the goal is sponsor advertising or high income hunting, climbing is the sport you want to love your children. Largest sports athletes worldwide do not live on it. This is what their love for this sport leads to, for the joy of achieving the goal! The climbing center remains climbing. In the field of climbing, there are no medicines to improve performance and so you will be sure that your children will stay away from tactics that affect the sport!
8. Climbing provides a healthy dose of humility.
All parents offer our children love, attention, and positive reinforcement. However, it is vital to develop the character of the child, to learn that sometimes we fail in life and that this is nothing more than a stage that we must overcome and try again until we achieve our goal. This lesson will pass easily to children whenever they fall from the wall from a small height onto the safety of special strata! They will fall back and will persist until they reach the top of their goal.
9. Climbing is super fun.
You may not be interested in healthy lifestyles, intellectual practice and skill acquisition, but you can not overlook that climbing is fun! Your kids will play, laugh, train through the activity and will be delighted! We all remember our little ones to run to jump from here and there … it is in the child’s nature to climb, fall and re-raise until it is exhausted by forces but its soul has filled its energy and beautiful images!
