West Country Adventures

Informative, encouraging and fantastic experience with Tori. Had a fabulous refresher for RCi and regained a lot of confidence in my own personal climbing through Tori's guidance

I've been lucky to have received coaching from Tori via various events including South West Women's Rock during which I climbed outside for the first time and a four day climbing trip to Costa Blanca which was just amazing. Tori's coaching provides a perfect balance between pushing yourself and listening to your mind and body, she inspires me to think so much more about my feet than I ever have and every time I come away from a session with her I have learnt so much about climbing and about myself. Thank you!

Tori was calm, patient, and encouraging. She did a great job with my introduction to outdoor climbing and lead climbing. I particularly appreciated her explaining the principles behind everything in a simple and accessible way. I couldn’t have been more pleased. I’ll definitely book with Tori again.

Fantastic experience on the Learn to lead Trad course! Tori is a great coach, friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I would thoroughly recommend these guys to anyone looking for courses or coaching, indoor or out.

My climbing partner and I had two days of sport climbing instruction from Tori on the Isle of Portland and we cannot speak highly enough of her. She designed the two days around our needs and her expertise shone through along with her humour and easy-going nature. We felt really well supported, and saw clearly improvements in our climbing, gear and psychological game. At the end of two days we felt excited and motivated to push ahead with new routes - and we wouldn't hesitate to return to Tori for further support in the future. Thank you Tori - we couldn't have asked for a better instructor.

Myself and Harry had a great time on the 'Introduction to Rigging' course hosted by Tori. We learnt so many new things and this was made possible by her clear explanations and demonstrations of how to use kit and safely rig. Tori was always happy to answer our many questions which lead to really interesting conversations that we also learnt a lot from. I originally was worried about my ability to safely rig, and our session with Tori has given me the confidence to get out and get practising and applying my new skills! We hope to attend more courses in the future and would highly recommend to anyone who's interested in learning the ropes!

I have known Paul and Tori for a long time and I am lucky to count them among the people who have influenced my climbing development over the years. Both of them are motivating and positive by nature.Recently I decided to get some coaching and training from Paul, I got an assessment and a 6 week training program. Immediately the assessment alone gave me 3 clear areas to focus on which in self reflection alone I had not been able to quantify. I chose to have Paul give me the training elements and order them week to week myself as I have limited time and have trained myself in the past.The proof has been evident in the results when it comes to the training, I have reached the end of my 6 weeks and achieved significant gains in finger strength, movement, strength and confidence. (For you statistical needs out there I made a 11% gain in finger strength)I would recommend Westcountry Adventures to anyone thinking of trying to develop their climbing skills, Paul and Tori have a great approach and will help you focus on your goals and how to achieve them. (Also they are pretty awesome people)

Top quality training amazing knowledge with superb delivery the team are now super enthused to deliver our revamped sessions. Whatever your outdoor needs I highly recommend Paul and Tori

I had an outdoor session with Tori to help with my head game, before a climbing trip. It has helped me immensely! Tori was calm, patient and understanding. I cannot wait for my next session. I highly recommend!Thank you so muchMilli
