Can your employees, listen, interpret and apply? We teach individuals methods favoured by the British military how to climb a rope. This requires the ability to listen and apply.

After some expert tuition, you’ll be amazed how nearly all participants can not only climb a rope, but can lock off, and hold their own body weight whilst holding on with only one hand! Not to missed!
