      …What people have to say about our

      ​COURSE ON ANCHOR BUILDING IN MADRID

      This was something on my list of things to do for more than a decade. I kept postponing doing the course, and now that I’ve done it, I don’t know why I didn’t do it earlier. I feel much more comfortable and updated on the wall. My climbing partners appreciate it, and in fact they paid for part of it as a birthday present, for their own good.
