LEVEL UP YOUR CLIMBING
UPSKILL ME ON...
TAKE A TIP FROM THE PROS
The individual nature of climbing gives rise to a sense that you can make it on your own merit. The observation and guidance of an expert coach or trainer can speed up your progress so you rise through the grades faster and with the fundamentals of efficient climbing technique.
LEARN TO LEAD
Leading is a natural progression of climbing. To be independent, able to step up to a wall, choose a line, and climb it is liberating. Only by tying into the ‘sharp end’ of the rope can the climber explore ‘the zone’ located just above the last clip. Such freedom comes with new risks, requiring new skills and experience.
Camp5 eases your transition from indoor top-roping to lead climbing via a two progressive instructional courses. The Lead Wall Course of courses on skills relevant to indoor lead climbing, whilst the Lead Rock Course will equip you with the know-how and skills to safely lead on outdoor bolted sport routes.
For those that seek to take their climbing higher, we offer the Multipitch course. Run over 2.5days you’ll learn and practice the skills indoor before taking on one of KL’s world-class multipitch sport climbing routes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum age to participate?
The recommended minimum age is aged 13. However, participants aged 10-12 may attend if accompanied by a participating adult.
The Prerequisite 6a Grade, what does this mean?
6a is the French Grade for the route difficulty. The equivalent YDS grade is 5.10a or 19 for NZ/Aust. Since most of the routes on Camp5’s Lead Wall and outdoors are above 6a, it would not make sense to enroll in the course unless you are very comfortable climbing this grade. By ‘comfortable’ implies that you can climb a route of this grade without too much effort.
Is the price the same for Junior(ages 13-17)?
The course fee is the same for everyone, however, the entry fee will differ for Junior (RM30) vs Adult (RM42). Check the full list of entry fees here. SPECIAL OFFER: If you chose a 3 or 12-month Term your LWC Fee will be discounted.
When does the course run?
Lead Wall Courses are scheduled most weekends. Simply select the outlet (which has a lead wall) and chose from any of the listed program times available.
The Lead Rock Course is run on request. If you are interested in the LRC please write to climb@camp5.com.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes. Spaces are limited and the course requires at least 4 persons booked to run.
Once I have completed the LWC will I receive a certificate?
Yes. Upon graduating from the course, you will receive a certificate along with a new “green” Camp5 Membercard. Your Camp5 Member profile skill level will be upgraded to “Lead Climber” so you will be eligible to climb the lead wall in any Camp5 outlet.
Can I bring a Top-roper to lead climb?
Whilst we strongly discourage learning to climb through anyone other than a professional climbing instructor. The risk associated with Lead Climbing are in many degrees greater than Top-roping.
If you want to give a Top-roper a chance to climb on the lead wall, this can be done safely by letting the top-roper tie into the ‘clipped’ side of the rope. As they climb, they can unclip the rope from the quickdraw JUST BE SURE TO BRIEF THE TOP ROPER NOT TO ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE ROPE FROM THE ANCHOR. Once the rope has been cleared from the wall quickdraws the rope need to be pulled down.
Will the LWC certification allow me to climb in other gyms?
Whilst we cannot say 100% percent as operation policies differ from country to country, given that our instructor’s certification is recognized by the International Federation of Sport Climbing Associations (IFSCA) there is a good chance your certificate will be accepted as proof of training. In our experience, we know of no situation where a past graduate of our LWC was denied access.
THE YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
The benefit of climbing for young bodies and minds is widely known. From motor skill development, problem-solving, and self-confidence, few sports provide the range of growth inherent and integral to climbing. Our Youth Development Program is designed to maximize these benefits and more.

Every step of the way our coaches work on climbing ability, strength and endurance, in parallel with goal setting, injury prevention and other skills that are needed in the competitive arena.
The Cicak Club is run year-round, new members can enroll in the Cicak Club at any time throughout the year.

LEARN TO ABSEIL
In climbing we focus entirely on going up, our belayer takes care of the return trip. Unsurprisingly then, many climbers are not familiar with the art of abseiling (lowering yourself down a fixed-line). Getting comfortable abseiling will improve your climbing.
Abseiling is common amongst action racers, caving and canyoning. The skills you will learn on this course will enable you to understand the basics of a safe abseil set up and techniques.
Class Fee: MYR 150/person.
Class Duration: 6 hours.
