Nate has been climbing for over 6 years and has climbed up to V10 and 5.13a indoors. Outdoors, he’s sent V7 boulders and 5.12b on top rope. As a youth, he competed with the Granite Arch team, advancing to the divisional championships in Salt Lake City, Utah in 2023.
Certified as a USA Climbing Level 2 coach and Climbing Wall Instructor Level 3 trained, Nate has been coaching for over 3 years, with a particular focus on bouldering and working with intermediate climbers. His coaching philosophy centers on helping climbers learn from their own mistakes, guiding them toward self-discovery rather than giving them the answers. This approach not only builds better climbers but also strengthens mental toughness-- helping athletes push past boundaries and manifest success both on and off the wall.
Our private coaching program is designed for climbers of all levels-- whether you’re stepping onto the wall for the first time or chasing your next big send. Each 60-minute session gives you personalized instruction from our experienced team of coaches, including CWI-certified instructors and USA Climbing certified competition coaches.
Your coach will tailor the session to your goals: building confidence, learning climbing fundamentals, improving technique and efficiency, or training for higher grades and competition. With a supportive, encouraging approach, we’ll help you climb smarter, stronger, and with more confidence.
Private coaching is available for individuals, pairs, or groups of three. Sessions are booked one at a time, so you can train when it works best for you.
