It’s not skills you know that hinder you…
it’s the skills you have yet to discover.
Often when we work with athletes on movement, they just don’t know what they don’t know (not yet anyway…)!
Many climbers unknowingly form bad habits that prevent them from using their strength to its full potential.
Learning advanced movement tools will allow you to experience climbing as the art form that it is - which really is the key to enjoyment and success.
here’s an example…
NEW SCHOOL!
-
Follow the link below to book your spot. Or, if you want to chat with Casey first before signing up to make sure it is right for you, send an email to casey@projectdirectcoaching.com to set up a 20-min Zoom call about your climbing before signing up.
-
Complete your personal assessment (delivered via TrueCoach) and submit 5 climbing videos so we can look at your metrics alongside your movement.
We will guide you through the types of videos to upload and answer any questions you have on the assessment.
-
We will review your assessment and movement videos together and provide you feedback on a 60-min 1 on 1 video call. We will discuss your climbing goals and casey will highlight areas for improvement, skill drills, and teach you about movement concepts.
After your initial meeting, you will receive skill drills to work on via TrueCoach.
-
You will set up 2 more meetings (monthly) to review your progress and advance the guidance as appropriate.
After your third month, you are welcome to extend your program on a monthly basis.
-
The total cost for this 3-month program is $381. You have the option of paying in full or completing the deposit option (see below) with a payment plan.
-
Included in the movement coaching program are 3 monthly meetings focused on your climbing. However, if you want to receive a training plan with weekly check-ins, you may sign up for that and discuss the details on your first call. You can find more information on physical training in the programs tab on our website header.
We are here to provide you the program that is best for you and your climbing, the easiest way to do that is to send an email to any of the Project Direct coaches to set up a time to chat through options and availability.

hear from a recent new school athlete…
“New school was exactly what I was hoping for — really detailed advice and technique coaching without a heavily prescriptive schedule.
The biggest difference maker was Casey’s analysis of my climbing videos — he revealed some big technique blind spots for me. His emphasis on my hip trajectory in 3d has also helped me feel strong and precise on the wall.
His coaching made the difference between success and failure on quite a few climbs this summer.”
-Project Direct Athlete, Neil Mackie
improving your climbing movement is about developing skills - the tools in your tool box - and also knowing when to use them.
In the age of training, we see a lot of athletes get really invested in their training metrics. This is great - as long as the movement skills are progressing too.
Climbing is still a skill based sport. we need to combine training with improved skills in order to see continuous improvement.
it is quite common that athletes come to us wanting to train more, but we ascertain that what they really need to work on is movement skills.
That - and the feedback from athletes we do skill work with - is the reason we put together movement coaching to stand on it’s own!
“karly and casey pointed out things that I had not even considered before Movement coaching. I am definitely a better and stronger climber than before.”
— Project Direct Athlete, Alan Herriman
Meet Casey elliott!
Casey joined project direct in 2022 and has a real knack for movement coaching. With a impressive breadth and depth of climbing and coaching experience, he is one of the best.
Working with Casey, you can expect to get feedback on your current movement but also an in depth explanation of the “why” behind drills, skills, and concepts that you can carry with you for years.
“Working with casey has been great! I have worked with multiple coaches before, but i am actually seeing improvements with Casey. his coaching has made me more confident on the wall and i understand climbing movement so much better.”
— Project Direct Athlete, Haley Mueller
