6 steps to overcome your fear of falling 

This video is great. The advice is really helpful, but also thank you for normalising 'the fear'. I look around the centre and assume I am the only one who feels this way, so it's really comforting to see from the video and comments that I'm not the only one. Especially when the climber is so skilled, it makes me realise anyone could be feeling that way :)

Fantastic video, thankyou! Some great techniques to work on

Shes got amazing flow of movement, very graceful

the 4. and 5. steps were super helpful. I started climbing just recently and now, because of these methods, I trust my belayer. thx a lot

It's nice that this is a self compassionate method

Never tried practicing the falls top roping, really good advice.

日本語では伝わらないかもしれませんが、とても感謝しています。リードクライミングを１０年以上していますが、未だに落ちる恐怖心で、うまく登れない時がたくさんあります。 このビデオをよく見て試してみて、恐怖心をコントロールして、登ることに集中できるようにしたいと思います。 何より、リードクライミングを楽しく登れるようになりたいです！参考にします。ありがとう。

What great tips!! Most others give advice like just practice falling or something dumb lol these steps really lay out a map to get over the fear!! Awesome video thank you!

This videos brings another energy into my climbing routine where I started hesitating whether I even have the right personality for this amazing sport. It literally made me happy and reliefed that I'm not alone in this and there's way to progress. So thank you for it 😊

Great tips! Can't wait to implement them in the next sessions when we get out of lockdown.

Excellent video, going to start introducing this process into my training and hopefully get over the fear (or at least start to). Thanks!

As for a educational video, I'd say that its's pretty entertaining.

I searched for a long time for a video in Italian language that would explain me how to learn to fall, but I didn't find any. I finally found yours in English, perfect! So, thank you !! Marco from Italy

This video was awesome! I’ve had more fear leading in a gym over outside and will work on these things. Thank you

What a great video. Breaking it down into small, bite size pieces in order to work on the mental patterns around fear. `thanks so much!

Great video! I have been climbing since I was little and am now freshly lead certified, I have always had a problem with heights which doesn't help when you are trying to lead climb. your video is sure to help me get more comfortable!

Interesting approach to this problem. I will try this because I really need it. I can climb 6b+ but I am terrified of falling, although I trust the equipment. I hope it works. Thanks for the tips.

I needed this vid so badly! I need to be comfortable with the heights so I can climb with my oldest son. Thank you!

Hello I'm Sergey and I am fear of lead falls))))) Thanx for material)

its easy to fall in the gym. step 7 is to take it outside on a sport route and step 8 is to try the same things on trad gear high off the ground with multiple pieces.

Very good video thank you for sharing, I need to do this.

excellent video. this is what I need to do over and over again. now to find a belayer that wants to also take a lot of falls because I want to get a lot better at belaying also.

Thanks, that´s helpful!

That you so much for this! im gonna do these things and hoefully getting over my fear of lead climbing!

Nice. Step 4 is the most important.

Great video. Very much appreciate the approach & presentation … especially the very end. Thank you.

5:31 Will you do a tutorial about using the force to spot someone?

Thanks❤

Now I can finally see what everybody is telling me. Im in my own weight class and so we have to use a Ohm, and man I can tell you, you absolutely slam into the wall with a shitload of force. It gives me more Motivation to loose weight, but until then really nothing nice about falling. Funny thing is I am only scared of falling while clipping. But I really try to avoid falling while lead climbing at all costs,because it really hurts.

1 year lead climbing... still fear of falling.. imma try this

This Vedio is so great !!! By the way, does someone know what is model of that orange rope in this vedio ?

I was scared watching this lol

12:48 is her left foot in a bad spot here? Not trying to be “that guy” it’s just sometimes it feels unavoidable that your leg could slip behind the rope and/or the wrong side of a QuickDraw. It happened to me one time and I have since struggled with climbing instinctively because I’m always considering the possibility of where my legs will end up in a fall.

My problem is that my fear is entirely based in my knowledge an understanding of the risks. I don't know when last the gym replaced their ropes. I don't know who welded the autobelay to the ceiling, or how qualified they were to do so. I don't know whether the person who placed the carabinas along the lead routes went for a cheaper knockoff to save some costs. I feel like in order to be safe doing toprope or lead I have to trust that so many people, all of whom I've never met, are competent and ethical and diligent. If could set the whole thing up myself I would have no fear of the height. What scares me is that I don't know how the wall was set up. I wish gyms would have somewhere on their website where you could go and see, these are the carabinas we use, this is when they were last replaced etc etc. Then I'd feel safe.

As someone who has made this mistake DO NOT GRAB THE KNOT it will sinch tighter than you tied ut and pinch your fingertips really bad

You guys are Dutch aren't you
