Youth Coaching

Why choose Synergy? Our coaches bring world-class experience gained through two lifetimes of climbing and competing. Lisa Rands, Synergy founder, was the first American to win a World Cup bouldering competition. Wills Young coached her to that victory along with multiple bouldering competition wins nationally and internationally. We’ve coached climbers to Youth National podiums multiple times and offer one-on-one coaching for youth competitors on our team and others. Please call or text Wills Young at (760) 920-5348 (cell) to discuss your options or to make an appointment. We currently offer a special rate for youth coaching to non-Synergy Team members of $60/hour. This rate is for climbers competing in USA Climbing competitions. Minimum 2 hours per session.

We welcome all competitors, and will provide the best possible advice and coaching to all. We will identify ways to improve technique, prepare for competition, and train effectively.

While we are honored to have the opportunity to work with some of the most gifted in this sport, ultimately it is motivation and attitude that matter most to us. If you have the drive, we’re here for you!
