Mckinlay Mountaineering

Completed the CWI training with Dan, thoroughly enjoyed the course. I would definitely recommend Dan, he is very knowledgeable about all things climbing, and is always full of enthusiasm. A great few days, thanks Dan!

In short, Dan is the man! I was really nervous especially when I realized that I will be surrounded by people I have not met before while living in a country for barely a month. But Dan really made me feel welcomed and he always made sure that everyone was alright. It was the most humbling and unforgettable non-climbing experience that I’ve had in recent memories! I would easily recommend this class/course under Dan for anyone wondering if it’s worth it. It is worth it! Thank you so much Da...

Did my CWI training with Dan in Sheffield recently, the course was immensely enjoyable with easily digestible information. Dan has the glorious ability to make people feel safe and warm even in the coldest climbing gym. I'm genuinely looking forward to future training if it's anything like the weekend just gone it will be a good session with quality people, great walls and top notch tuition. Cheers Dan

I was on a RCI training course and the way it was delivered was great. He made sure everyone had the best learning experience and have the skills to practice for the assessment. Really looking forward to do the assessment next year.

Dan is so experienced and knowledgeable, he is a great person to learn from. I can highly recommend McKinley Mountaineering if you are considering any of the mountain training instructor qualifications.
