Trailer to Teaching Kids to Belay: A Progression of Learning While Maintaining Safety

Our kids are young and very into rock climbing. Our philosophy has always been to empower them, and that demands they take on increasing responsibilities for safety as they become ready. If they have always been partners in keeping themselves safe they will more likely continue to be safety conscious as they enjoy a lifetime of climbing. One major milestone in that climbing journey is learning proper top rope belaying. The full video shows how we taught our young kids how to top rope belay while ensuring we kept everyone safe along the way.
