Andrew is an incredibly capable instructor and an expert in distilling complicated techniques into sections that were easy to understand and practice. His lead climbing instruction course was both entertaining and informative, weaving stories from his extensive experience (both locally and overseas) into practical examples of the skills and safety protocols that we were required to master.

Although the participants in our group came from a wide range of different climbing backgrounds and skill levels, Andrew was patient and encouraging towards each of us and paid special attention when required to ensure that none of us were left behind.

I would thoroughly recommend attending any course that Andrew is involved in if you want to up skill your climbing ability and ignite your passion for the sport.

Great instructor, was very patient and ensured that we were familiar with the techniques through repetition before moving on with the lesson.

Stone Monkeys Program

I have two primary school boys that started indoor rock climbing with the Stone Monkeys program two years ago. They love it so much they now climb with the Monkeys twice a week.

All of the kids get huge benefits from rock climbing -  their physical strength, balance and flexibility continues to amaze me and their problem solving skills are developed as they work out how to approach a climb and also in the games and activities the instructors give them.

Andrew and his team should be congratulated for creating an atmosphere where kids can learn valuable skills while they strive for personal goals (and have a lot fun at the same time).
