About Me
Hi, my name is Sam Geer
I grew up in North Wales where my parents owned an outdoor pursuits centre, so getting outdoors was something I was literally born into. I began climbing at age 6 and would go on many climbing and hiking trips with my family.
I studied outdoor sports at college where my passion for climbing really set in. From there, I have racked up over 15 years of experience working in the outdoor industry and gained my RCDI qualification.
My goal for Geer up is to give people the opportunity to get outdoors and into the fantastic climbing the UK has to offer, in a safe and fun way.
I'm especially passionate about getting young people outdoors and climbing. I have been coaching youth climbing groups for several years and there's very limited opportunity for young people to get outdoors, if they don't have parents already into climbing. I want to bridge this gap and provide teaching to they can become safe, independent, outdoor climbers.
