What it really takes to improve your technique
and unlock harder climbs
Break through the “intermediate plateau,” finally look smooth and elegant on the wall, and jump several grades without needing to get stronger
From the Altitude Team
Oslo, Norway and Los Angeles, California
When you start climbing, you typically make progress every time you go to the gym.
Your fingers get stronger.
Your technique repertoire starts to expand (you do your first flag and get better at keeping your hips close to the wall).
You upgrade your shoes and you quickly jump another grade or two.
You’re a solid climber now.
You can climb things that seemed impossible when you started. You easily outclimb even your fittest non-climber friends without any effort. And you have experienced at times what great technique feels like and the joy of sending a particularly hard climb.
But then, inevitably, things slow down.
And somewhere over the last months or years you stopped making progress.
When you stop making progress
Even though you climb as much as in the beginning (or even more)...
And even though you’re still trying hard and are climbing with others that are better…
…your progress just isn’t the same.
You might find yourself stuck on the same grade for months, and just “climbing more” doesn’t seem to be getting you any further.
Instead of progressing like you used to, your experience might look more like this:
- You rely on your power instead of technique: When trying to send harder climbs you often just power through the moves, instead of climbing smoothly, with the best beta, and good technique.
- You gravitate towards climbs that “fit your style”: You can easily send a climb when it “fits your style,” but fail to make much progress on technical climbs far below your max grade.
- You know basic technique, but often don’t know how to put it into practice: You know you should “use your feet,” “find your center of gravity” and “keep your hips close to the wall,” but can’t find the right positions on the wall to actually make it happen.
- You don’t intuitively feel which technique to use when: You often find yourself stuck on the wall, hanging on a hold, getting pumped, and not knowing what to do next – should you heel hook? Toe hook? Deadpoint? – the answer isn’t always clear.
- You know your technique is holding you back, but don’t know how to improve it: You want to improve your technique, but you don’t know where to start, how moves should “feel,” or what you are doing right or doing wrong. You often feel like you “don’t know what you don’t know.”
- You can’t find any good resources to improve your technique: You carefully observe better climbers, watch YouTube videos, try technical drills and exercises, but nothing seems to help you make meaningful progress.
If any of these sound familiar, you’re not alone.
Almost every climber experiences this a few years into their journey.
The good news is: you don’t have to stay stuck.
With the right approach, you can jump several grades again, just like you did when you first started climbing. And you can improve your technique and begin to look smooth and elegant on the wall.
And it doesn’t require spending hours and hours on tedious climbing technique drills or “practice.” Instead, it can even make climbing more fun than it is right now.
How to break through the “intermediate” plateau
There’s probably nobody better to speak on this topic than Dave MacLeod.
Dave has been a pro climber for over 20 years.
He has sent 8C (V15) boulders, 9a (5.14d) sport climbs, many of the world’s hardest trad climbs, and even an 8b+ (5.14a) free solo.
But maybe more importantly, as a sports scientist and coach, he has probably spent more time thinking about and analyzing climbing technique than almost anyone else.
Dave noticed something curious early on in his career:
“I remember when I was in my first 10 years climbing. I could see other climbers around me who were much older and had been climbing for a long time.
I could see that climber X had been climbing for 20 years and they reached 6b (5.10d). They really hadn’t progressed all that far from their initial grade.
Climber Y had also been climbing for 20 years but they reached 8c (5.14b), even though they climbed as often as the other person.”
So what’s the difference?
What differentiates climbers who continue to progress for decades from climbers who hit a plateau early on then struggle to ever break from it?
In the following decades, Dave dedicated himself to this question and over time developed a clear answer.
Why some climbers get better and others don’t
When you first start climbing, it’s all about putting in the hours.
Your body adapts. Your fingers get stronger. And by practicing new moves and trying harder climbs, you automatically get better.
That’s why in the first few years, how many hours you climb is the best predictor of how quickly you progress through the grades.
It’s simple: the more hours you put in, the better you get.
But once you reach an intermediate level, and in order to…
- make actual progress again like you did at the start
- break into harder grades and unlock more difficult climbs
- begin to look smooth, controlled, and more graceful on the wall
...it’s not enough to “just climb more.”
Instead:
To get to the next level, your approach to climbing needs to evolve.
Now, this doesn’t mean doing hours of technical drills (which aren’t actually that useful).
Nor is the answer to simply “try harder,” spend weeks projecting the same climb, or “just climb with better climbers.”
Instead, you need to do what some climbers that continue to progress through the grades do naturally.
To jumpstart your progress again, and grow as a climber, you need to focus on…
The three keys to unlocking
harder grades
1. Filling in the gaps
Dave likes to think of climbing technique as a tree.
Core climbing movements are the big branches on the tree, such as heel hooks, drop knees, or dynos.
From there things branch into progressively greater detail: how to place a foot, how to position the hips, and when and how to shift your weight.
Like most intermediate climbers, you probably already understand certain branches (techniques) in great detail, while others are either still largely undiscovered or you aren’t as comfortable executing.
In order to grow to the next level you need to flesh out the tree and hone and expand your technical repertoire.
This means learning about movements you might have avoided or neglected so far. Then, you can fill in the necessary detail that might have held you back from sending harder climbs – the kind where precision and nuance really start to matter.
Utilizing his tree metaphor, Dave is able to help climbers quickly identify weaknesses so they know what to focus on.
2. Shifting from passive to active
Dave often says:
“Climbers that stop making progress can take a fall and when you ask them what happened they say ‘I don’t know. I just couldn’t do the move.’ They are not actively noticing what went wrong.”
In short: They’re passive.
Now when you first start climbing that’s fine. Even without actively paying attention, you do get better.
But if you want to move past the intermediate level, you need to begin to more actively notice when something works, and when it doesn’t.
This means, shifting your attention internally and concentrating on how your body actually moves. What comes naturally. How your fingers grip a hold. And how you shift your weight.
By continuously paying closer attention and actively listening to your body you will develop better body awareness (something many intermediate climbers struggle with, but that is totally learnable).
Improved body awareness will allow you to “feel” if you’re moving right, be more in tune with what you need to tweak, and pinpoint more quickly what to change when working on a problem.
3. “Making it easy” instead of “getting to the top”
Focusing on sending as many climbs as you can is great at the beginning of your climbing journey. It helps you learn a variety of different moves and fuels your motivation to improve.
However, once you reach the intermediate level, it can actually begin to hold you back.
While you might send a hard climb and get the “tick,” you may have just muscled your way through, skipped a bad hold, or squeezed by with bad technique – just reinforcing bad habits.
Shifting your goal from “getting to the top” to “making every move easy” turns each climb into an opportunity to improve your technique.
At least a few times each session, don't treat a boulder as “done” once you send it, but instead begin to experiment and try to make each move as easy as possible, using less and less strength.
Many climbers Dave coaches find that this approach, while new, is surprisingly fun. It often ignites a previously unknown enjoyment of climbing – and at the same time leads to sending harder climbs.
Dave has seen countless times how implementing these things will allow you to break through any plateau and actually make progress again. Much more progress than you might think is possible right now.
The question now is, how do you turn this into practice?
A Program to Guide You
Now, you could totally use these insights to figure it all out on your own.
And that’s what climbers have done for decades. Some with success, and others getting stuck along the way, settling for grades much below their potential.
Instead, the easier way is to have a program to guide you.
A program that teaches you all the core techniques and moves – not just how to do them but how they should feel, when to do them, how to combine them. Honing the things you’re already good at and filling in any gaps you might have in your technique repertoire.
A program that gives you clarity on what to focus on when trying different moves, so you don't get bogged down or overwhelmed trying to pay attention to too many things at once. Instead, clear guidance so you can improve your body awareness and feel more in control.
And, a program that gives you a framework for experimentation and shows you a step-by-step process to work problems and make each move as easy as possible – train your technique in every session without ever having to do drills or “practice.”
And this is what we have been working on with Dave for the last several months.
A program that, if you follow it, will not only allow you to break through your plateau but that will also make you:
- See your climbing gym in a new light, where each climb turns into a new opportunity to improve – even the ones that feel out of reach right now, and the ones you have already climbed.
- Increase your body awareness so you can feel exactly what was wrong when you fell off the wall and come up with new ideas to make the stick moves with ease.
- Unlock a whole new variety of new cool and interesting climbs at higher grades simply by focusing on playful experimentation and making hard moves feel easy.
- Have renewed progress that fuels your motivation and kicks off a snowball effect where you’re excited to try harder, more interesting climbs.
- Experience finally what it feels like to “dance up the wall” with elegance, control, and confidence – exactly like the climbers you look up to.
And with this, we couldn’t be more excited to present to you Dave MacLeod’s first-ever online course on climbing technique, which will give you the guidance you need and will change your climbing forever.

Teaches Climbing Technique
The most comprehensive climbing technique course
We can confidently say that Dave’s course is the most comprehensive climbing technique course on the planet. You won’t find anything quite like it out there.
In this course, Dave will teach you how to systematically build a repertoire of all the key climbing techniques. You’ll learn how to improve your body awareness and you’ll gain access to Dave’s system for experimentation which allows you to polish and practice your technique on every climb.
The course includes 10+ hours of video content spread over 5 modules with over 75 on-the-wall demonstrations of all core climbing techniques, multiple technique coaching sessions with advanced climbers, a self-assessment tool for identifying and fixing your technical gaps, and much, much more.
Our 3-part
teaching framework
The course was carefully crafted using the following three part teaching framework.
Teaching: Dave explains the key principles of climbing techniques, how to move effectively, and his framework for improving. You will come away with a crystal clear understanding of climbing technique, and countless “a-ha” moments no matter your skill level.
Demonstration: Through over 75 on-the wall demonstrations that are placed throughout the course, Dave demonstrates countless movements, how they should feel in your body, which muscles you need to engage, and all the small details you should pay attention to.
Coaching: Through coaching sessions with intermediate to advanced climbers (levels 7a/5.11d to 8a/5.13b), Dave shows you what improving your technique looks like in practice. You see firsthand what effective experimenting looks like and how you can do the same to level up your climbing.
Once you go through the course, you will not only understand climbing technique more deeply than ever before. You will also have the framework and roadmap necessary to work on your technique on your own and kickstart your progression through the grades.
Your Path to Unlocking
Harder Climbs
Dave’s Climbing Technique Course gives you a roadmap for improving your technique.
As you go through the course, you will:
- Expand your technique repertoire You will learn how to execute, refine and master all the key climbing techniques, from footwork, to body positioning, dynamic movements and coordination moves, and discover how to connect them into more complex movements that are necessary for unlocking harder grades.
- Identify your technical weaknesses You will discover which specific areas of your climbing technique are holding you back, as well as get a systematic approach for improving them, so you will know exactly what to focus on and how to get started with improving your technique.
- Develop full body awareness You will no longer have to ask yourself how a move should feel on the wall, and if you’re doing it right or not. You will know which muscles you need to engage, how to position your body, and what you did wrong whenever you fall off the wall.
- Get a framework for experimentation You will improve your problem-solving and experimentation abilities and get the most out of every climb (including climbs you already climbed), and reignite your progression through the grades.
- Climb more smoothly and gracefully You will climb with a new-found confidence, flow, and ease, because you will rely on your technique, instead of muscling through the moves until you get too pumped.
- Unlock a wider variety of climbs You will no longer feel like technique is your limiting factor, and it might just become your strength. You will be able to start sending harder, more interesting climbs both in the gym and at scenic crags all over the world.
Here is what you’ll learn
inside
Dave’s climbing
technique course
Module 1: Make Hard Moves Feel Easy
Learn the key technical principles required to get the most out of the strength you already have, make difficult and complex moves feel easy, and avoid falling or slipping off the wall.
Among other things, you will learn how to improve at:
- Footwork: Master technical foot swaps, learn how to actually “use your feet,” and improve your climbing on bad footholds and delicate slabs
- Flagging: Discover when and why to use inside, outside, and back flags, and how to execute them perfectly (and fix one of the biggest technical errors even advanced climbers make).
- Using your arms: Why “keeping your arms straight” can be bad advice, how to decide whether you should lock off or keep your arm straight, and how to engage your arms for maximum pulling power and friction.
- Compression climbing: How to use the principle of opposition to generate maximum compression on different types of holds, and improve your climbing on slopers.
Module 2: Execute Your Moves Perfectly
Climbing with good technique is about much more than just finding the right beta. The same move can feel much harder without the right execution. Learn how to move smoothly and gracefully on the wall, and use your full body to your advantage.
We will cover the following (and more):
- Explosiveness and relaxation: How to know when you should be relaxed on the wall, and when you should be explosive and aggressive (and how to actually do it).
- Use of momentum: Different movement techniques you can use to generate and absorb momentum to reach further, use less energy, and avoid cutting loose and barndooring.
- Static vs dynamic climbing: Which situations dictate whether you should do the move statically or dynamically, and specific strategies for improving in both static and dynamic climbing.
- Body tension: A new way of thinking about body tension that helps you create and maintain maximum tension with the strength you already have (plus the best ways to train it).
- The art of cutting loose: When you should intentionally cut loose, and how to quickly get back on the wall without wasting unnecessary energy or falling off.
Module 3: Expand Your Technique Repertoire
While climbing is an infinitely complex sport, it can be broken down into a repertoire of core slab and steep climbing techniques. Once you master these techniques, and learn how to combine them into more complex movements, you will automatically stop “powering through the moves” and find technical solutions to problems on the wall.
Here are some of the techniques you will add to your repertoire:
- Drop knees: Different variations of drop knees that most climbers don’t know about, finding the right positions to make them effective and secure, and how to execute them safely to avoid knee pain and injuries.
- Heel hooking, toe hooking, and their alternatives: The most common technical errors to avoid in toe and heel hooks, the mechanics that help you exert maximum force through them, and their advanced variations.
- Dynos and other jumps: How to fully commit to dynamic movements, generate just the right amount of momentum, and learn complex coordination moves.
- Knee bars and scums: When and how to effectively use knee bars and knee scums on different terrains, and how to spot, execute, and release them.
- Slab climbing techniques: Master a variety of technical slab climbing techniques like hip positioning, rockovers, finding and shifting your balance, step-ups, and specific ways to prevent losing balance and barndooring off the wall.
Module 4: Learn Technique Faster
Perhaps the most important part of improving your technique, learning how to practice it in an enjoyable and deliberate way. Dave’s 4-step experimentation process is a sure-fire approach to accelerating your technical learning and reigniting your progression through the grades.
Dave covers key technical learning strategies like:
- Technical awareness: Develop the judgment to “feel” when to employ one technique in favor of another, both on and off the wall.
- Systematic practice: Embody a practice for your technical skills that is much more effective (and much more fun!) than tedious technical drills.
- Experimentation process: The 4-step experimentation process you can use to assess your movement patterns, work moves effectively, and discover the most efficient beta.
- Off-the-wall learning: Specific ways in which you can deliberately improve your technique by watching other climbers in the gym (or on video), that most climbers don’t use.
- Serious play: How to develop a child-like curiosity and cultivate a joy for learning that will make technique training more fun than “just climbing” and fuel you with the motivation you need to continue progressing through the grades.
Module 5: Learning Technique in Practice
Watch Dave coach three advanced climbers with levels between 7a (5.11d) and 8a (5.13b) on improving their technique and see what technical learning looks like in practice, across 14 different problems and circuits. With over 3.5 hours of climbing coaching, you will get countless new ideas and insights for improving your own technique.
Without giving too much away, here are a few things you will learn:
- Working hard boulders: The process you can use to work through hard boulders, refine your movements, and find the most efficient beta (plus a common mistake climbers make).
- Aggressive climbing: Why aggression in climbing can be a good thing, how to develop it, and when to use it.
- Climbing while pumped: How to prevent your technique from deteriorating when you climb close to failure, and recover from foot slips and other technical mistakes.
- Power endurance: The connection between power endurance and your rate of technical learning, and how to strategically develop it.
- Self-assessing technique: How to spot whether you are climbing dynamically or too statically, and figure out which techniques you are using too frequently (or too rarely).

What students are saying about the course...
“When I climb I’m more aware of the movements and what happens to my body, I’m able to recognize when and how the muscles and body parts are involved in the climbing, resulting in greater awareness and better performance.”
Guglielmo, climbing for 1-3 years
“Even though the technique lessons were great, the best takeaway for me was changing my approach to climbing and improving my technique. Making hard moves feel easy through experimentation and repeating routes has done wonders to my technique on all grades.”
Paul, climbing for 1-3 years
“The footwork was/is really helpful, above all it was a target reminder of technical tricks; I saved a lot of energy and got successful performance on sighting routes. I climb with more ‘flow’, more consciousness, more fun! I am also taking big benefits in terms of strength, power endurance, in particular training three fingers drag at my board (il Domani - Baguette). I am super happy with the course and even more of a fan of Dave’s. Thank you all.”
Sergio, climbing for 10+ years, improved +1 grade in lead/toprope
“This comprehensive course covers all the nuances that are so important, but sometimes are overlooked. It has helped me to improve the quality of my climbing and my body awareness. My climbing improved more with this course than it did when I focused solely on getting stronger. I highly recommend it to everyone looking to significantly level-up their climbing!”
Gustavo, climbing for 3-5 years, improved 2 grades lead/toprope, 1 grade bouldering
“The overall course has an excellent level of detail. It was very valuable. Especially the last 3 coaching sessions to other climbers, actually I would recommend adding some more of this. I was able to relate to one of them and test the exact same flaws and approach to detect them in my climbing and training. I was able to extrapolate an incorrect use of momentum and modified the balance between a static into a dynamic transition in one project, this saved a tiny bit of energy that I needed, this last modification allowed me to send my Font 7c project at my local crag. I am psyched!”
Tucci, climbing for 5-10 years, improved 1 grade bouldering
“I am making my way slowly through the course trying to really integrate each new technique. The section on footwork has been extremely helpful giving me a critical piece of information that I didn't know about. Even though I broke my back, during a climbing accident, when I got back to climbing 3 months after (having read through and studied the section on footwork mainly) my climbing partner thought I was climbing better than pre-injury.”
Toby, climbing 3-5 years, improved 2 grades lead/toprope, 1 grade bouldering
“The emphasis on attention to detail and really thinking about why I fell and what changes I can make to my technique have been my biggest takeaways. I was working on a climb and would get consistently shut down on one longer move off of a strangely shaped crimp. Thinking about how I was holding the crimp allowed me to adjust my finger positions and made the move not only doable, but consistently doable even when pumped!”
Noah, climbing 1-3 years, improved 1 grade bouldering
“While all of the specific lessons were insightful and gave me food for thought (counterbalancing foot, swapping feet, momentum), the cumulative effect of listening to Dave explain these topics in such detail for hours really improved my creative beta finding - a much more immediate impact on my climbing than I expected.”
Morgan, climbing 10+ years
“After 40 years of climbing I realized I was not using my legs anywhere near enough. Once I focused on that I onsighted 2 grades harder at the climbing gym. Amazing and more to come.”
Bryan, climbing 40+ years, improved 2 grades sport climbing
“First lesson on footwork had me improving my confidence immensely. I feel so much more comfortable on all feet now. Dave’s a great teacher. His videos and written lessons are well thought out and I feel like every lesson I learn something I should have been thinking about since I started climbing.”
Lee, climbing 10+ years
“Dave’s course is extremely helpful for an experienced climber. He has clearly put an extraordinary amount of thought into (i) what works and (ii) how to communicate what works to the rest of us. These are sometimes subtle shifts, but they make a real difference both in terms of your climbing but also in terms of your awareness of and ability to diagnose what makes a difference. This course literally makes you a smarter climber.”
Forrest, climbing 1-3 years, improved 1 grade lead/toprope
“Lessons about footwork and dynamic movement were incredibly helpful, everything well explained and demonstrated with lots of videos. Studying and testing it out on the rock is definitely worth the time and money!”
Runar, climbing 5-10 years, improved 1 grade lead/toprope
Questions and Answers about Dave’s Climbing Technique Course
A lot of technique content is geared very much towards beginners (think: silent feet). Dave purposefully crafted the course for “intermediate to advanced” climbers.
It’s sometimes a bit tricky to assign an exact grade to that. However, “being an intermediate” looks roughly like this:
- You’ve been climbing for a few years and wouldn’t consider yourself a beginner anymore
- You climb consistently a few times per week
- You’re familiar with basic climbing techniques (such as heel hooks and toe hooks)
- And you can easily send all of the easier climbs in your gym
That said, the course has immense value for climbers of varying levels. And even if you’re a beginner, this course can be the best possible tool for gaining a technical foundation, eliminating bad habits, and unlocking quick progression through the grades.
Likewise, Dave also emphasized that he’s confident even 8b+ (5.14a) climbers will benefit from the course.
The course comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee, so you can always check it out and let us know if it’s not the right fit for you. If you’re not happy, we’ll return your full purchase price.

Reaching your potential
While working on the course Dave said: “without good technique you can't get anywhere near your potential.”
And not only this, but improving technique is the single fastest way to unlock that potential.
Unlike building strength, which can take years, improving your technique can make you a better climber overnight.
And, it also makes any strength training much more effective. Multiplying (not just adding to) any gains you make.
So, there’s little debate about the importance of great technique and how effective it is in allowing you to climb harder.
That’s why I was so excited when Dave said yes to creating this course.
Dave thinks about climbing differently than anyone else I’ve met.
He’s incredibly analytical. He points out the details I never even thought of. And he has a unique ability to make learning technique enjoyable through what he calls “serious play.”
What I took away from climbing with Dave is just how much fun it can be to work on and improve your technique.
This means going through the course you will not only get better much faster, but you’ll very likely enjoy your climbing much more.
I’m incredibly proud we were able to bring this course to life and I don’t think it’s an understatement that this course will fundamentally change your climbing experience to something much greater.
I hope to see you on the inside!
