Neil Gresham is widely regarded as one of the world’s leading voices in performance coaching for climbing. He has been coaching and writing regular training articles for national magazines since 1993 and has pioneered many of the methods that are used widely by coaches today. Neil is the current training columnist for UKC.com and Rock & Ice in the USA. He has also authored a book on training (‘How to Climb – Training’, published by Rock & Ice in 2017) and co-authored a further three training books. Neil has delivered coaching courses and seminars all over the world and has helped hundreds of climbers of all ages and ability levels to raise their game.

When coaching, he draws heavily on his vast bank of climbing experience, having put up hard new routes in over fifteen different countries. He has climbed E11 trad, WI 9 on ice and in 2016 he climbed his first 8c+ at the age of 45 when he made the first ascent of Sabotage 8c+ at Malham Cove.
