Yoga for Climbers is the first comprehensive online yoga course made specifically for climbers. This self-paced program will improve your flexibility, strengthen your entire body, boost your confidence, and help keep you calm after a fall, in the middle of a crux, and even sitting in traffic. Developed by Climbing magazine and pro climber and yogi Heidi Wirtz, this course focuses on aspects of mental and physical training that can benefit every climber, whether you’re a veteran big waller, gym climber, experienced boulderer, or putting on climbing shoes for the first time. Heidi has combined her 20+ years of yoga and climbing experience to help you prevent injury, fight through training plateaus, conquer fear, and stay grounded in your daily life.

Want to improve your climbing? Yoga’s one of the best ways to accomplish that goal. Yoga for Climbers has 22 yoga classes that each focus on a different theme that directly relates to climbing. You can mix and match classes, do a few in a row for a longer workout, or focus on a single class to target a certain area. There is no studio or experience required, and you can do the classes wherever you have an internet connection and space for a yoga mat. Heidi will walk you through each pose and flow, pointing out specific benefits for climbers as well as pro tips on how to get more out of each class.
