It's time to up your mental game. Everyone's training their fitness, strength and technique, but it's time to look within and polish your mental ability. Improving your mental focus will make huge gains in your climbing. It's just as important as strength and technique. To help you master your mind, Arno Ilgner is coming to Edgeworks! Come hang out September 9th, during his clinic, and learn the Warrior's Way.

Arno's clinic addresses fear of falling and improving commitment. Everyone will learn how to improve breathing, create flow and momentum, commit more deliberately, trust your body and more. This hands-on course closes with you applying what you've learned on a challenging route.

Date: September 9th
Time: 12:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. OR 6:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.
Cost: $79.00 members / $89 non-members

Space is seriously, seriously limited. Sign up early! Register at the Front Desk. (Did we mention how SERIOUSLY limited the space is? Really, there's only a few spots.)

Starting this September, Edgeworks' Climbing School is going through a bit of a change. We're adding new classes, changing some existing ones, and making them even better! You can find all the info on our site. But here's a short rundown of the highlights:

Redesigned Sport Leading class - This class is now longer and more comprehensive. It includes fundamentals of lead climbing, outdoor lead climbing, and cleaning. This class will prepare you to climb outdoors.

New Anchors and Rappelling class - This new class focuses on the fundamentals of building outdoor anchors, understanding rappelling risk and avoiding common and dangerous mistakes.

New Single Pitch Rock Rescue - This new class is all about getting beyond a serious situation: rescuing a climber. You'll learn the techniques necessary to get a climber back on the ground.

Register for an upcoming class to improve your skills and stay sharp.

Are you serious about improving your climbing? Mike Dove's got some advice:

Three Steps to Crushing... BATMAN STYLE!

1. Sure the tool belt is awesome. But, the mind is the most important tool for defeating your enemies. You wanna crush your project? Use yo' mind!

2. You think my good looks and muscles got me this far? Yeah, they help, but impeccable technique always beats brute force. I mean look how many times I've wooped Superman!

3. It's all about priorities. You don't see me taking a day off of crime-fighting to hit the Go-Kart track. If you want to get better at climbing, you need to climb more. Period.

There you have it. Three easy steps to improve your climbing. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to stop the Joker.
