Multiple trainings are given every week, for both beginners and advanced climbers. To participate, you must both be a member of the ESAC and have a sports card. For sport climbing training you must be in possession of a Toprope certificate. This can be obtained at ESAC at the start of the academic year and with the spring intro at the Indoor Toprope course. For more courses see the courses section.
There are also plenty of opportunities for ESAC people to climb outside of organized training courses and climbing weekends. Especially on Mondays and Thursdays, when climbing is extra cheap, chances are that you will bump into other members. In addition to the discounts described below, there are many more discount promotions especially for ESAC members (link discounts and partners).
Our trainings are not possible without our lovely trainers! Below they give a small introduction of themselves.
Hi, I'm Dirk. I am a climber and teacher with 30 + years of experience in climbing in 15 + countries/states. I love all sports. I got involved with ESAC in 1984: I carried two buckets of sand. Or stones? Don't remember...
Hello! I'm Jerin and I have developed a sweet spot for almost all disciplines of mountain sports. From bouldering to ice climbing, but especially (outdoor) sportsclimbing. I have now been giving trainings and instructions for ESAC and Neoliet for about five years.
The biggest pleasure of giving a training I get from challenging every participant at their own level of prestations, so they can get the most out of themselves climbing both inside and outside.
See you in the climbing hall!
Hiii, Liz here! I’ve been sport climbing since I was eight years old, and my love for the sport has only grown since then. For over 10 years I’ve participated in bouldering and lead climbing competitions, climbed outdoors regularly and dedicated many of my free evenings to training.
At my youth club, I started coaching young children, which I
found very fun and rewarding as I could help them with developing their
skills. After moving to Eindhoven, I had to stop giving training sessions there, so I am stoked to give the Thursday trainings here at ESAC. Young
children and ESAC climbers, how big can the difference be?
Hello there! I'm Ime, and I give the Tuesday training sessions at ESAC. I'm passionate about climbing and training HARD. I've done a lot of bouldering for the past 12 years, but a year ago I started my climbing journey and have been loving it. If you share my passion for climbing, I'd be thrilled to have you join me for our Tuesday training sessions!
