Hello,

I'm looking for some advice/inspiration regarding Christmas presents for a relative. He is a keen climber (both bouldering and with a rope) and we usually buy him climbing guides for gifts but were looking for something a bit different this year. We were thinking perhaps a session or few sessions with a coach or a masterclass session but would be open to any other ideas. If anyone could suggest any good coaches within a few hours of Leeds or further afield in the UK it would be much appreciated. 

Thankyou in advance!

Coaching sessions are a great idea, I had a video session with John Kettle recently and he was great, really nice cool guy with lots to say. Friends who've done in-person sessions with him say he's the dog's bollocks for spotting holes in technique. Think he does indoor sessions at kendal wall, or at crags too

Or build him a wall in his garage!  :-}

Buy them a mountain.

Ben Meeks at Citybloc in Leeds did 1-1 coaching prior to lockdown, may be worth contacting.
