Climbing instruction · 阳朔

Learn the limestone properly.

I’m Jessica. I teach sport climbing on the karst around Yangshuo — first sessions, technique days, and lead.

Yangshuo, Guangxi English and 中文 1–3 climbers Gears included

01 — About

A local instructor, one group at a time.

I live in Yangshuo and climb here most days. Teaching is the same work, slowed down enough that you can feel what your feet are doing.

I started guiding on these walls in 2018. The rock is steep, pocketed limestone. It asks for quiet feet more than loud arms, and that is what we practice — whether you have never tied in, or you already lead in the gym and want the same calm outside.

Groups stay at three climbers. I bring the rope, quickdraws, and helmets. We meet at a bike shop near West Street, or at the crag if you already have a scooter. I send a pin when the day is confirmed.

Sessions run in English or Mandarin. Tell me which you want when you book.

02 — Crags

Where we usually climb.

Closest

Moon Hill 月亮山

The classic first look at Yangshuo rock. Easy to reach, and a good place to learn how pockets work.

Steep

Swiss Cheese

Pocketed and a little fierce. Useful on a second day, once the belay already feels ordinary.

Quiet

White Mountain 白山

A longer approach and fewer people. I use it when the group wants a full half-day out of town.

Coaching

Lei Pi Shan 雷劈山

Mixed angles, so a private session can move from balance to steeper climbing without changing crags.

Pick the day that fits.

04 — A session

What the hours look like.

  1. 01
    We meet, fit a harness and shoes, and agree on the plan for the day.
  2. 02
    The belay is checked out loud before anyone leaves the ground.
  3. 03
    We warm up on easy rock, then change one thing at a time.
  4. 04
    The last few minutes are a short debrief: what to keep, what to ignore.

Wet limestone is not a teaching day.

If the crag is damp we move the session or pick another morning. You will hear from me on WeChat the evening before.

Bring water, sun cream, and climbing shoes if you own them. Rental shoes are easy to sort in town. I carry helmets for everyone.

Pick a morning. I’ll bring the gears.

A 40% deposit holds the spot. The rest is due on the day, by WeChat, Alipay, or a card link.
