Climbing Movement Analysis

Understand how you move. Identify what limits you.

Climbing movement analysis looks at how you use your feet, hips, body position, timing and route-reading to identify the factors limiting your climbing. The goal is not just to point out mistakes, but to turn those observations into clear priorities you can train and apply on the wall.

What I look at

I look at the parts of your movement that have the biggest effect on efficiency, control and performance.

  • Footwork and precision
  • Hip position and body tension
  • Movement timing and flow
  • Route-reading and decision-making
  • Re-grips and unnecessary movement
  • Coordination and movement options

How the analysis works

  1. You send climbing videos that show your movement clearly.
  2. I review the clips and identify recurring movement patterns, strengths and key limiters.
  3. You receive clear priorities and practical drills based on what the videos show.
  4. We connect the analysis back to your training so you know what to work on next.

The aim is to make the feedback specific enough to act on, not just descriptive.

Who this is for

Movement analysis is useful when you feel stuck, repeat the same mistakes or want a clearer understanding of what is actually limiting your climbing.

  • Climbers who feel they rely too much on strength
  • Climbers who struggle with footwork, body position or flow
  • Climbers who make repeated route-reading or beta mistakes
  • Competition climbers who want more efficient movement under pressure
  • Experienced climbers who have reached a plateau and need clearer priorities

What you get

  • A focused review of your climbing movement
  • Clear strengths and key limiters
  • 3–5 practical priorities and drills
  • A written summary you can use in your own training
  • A 30-minute consultation to review the findings

If you want a clearer picture of what is holding your climbing back, movement analysis is a practical place to start.
