In this video, Hazel breaks down the tools and strategies she used to climb a scary route called Muy Caliente (E9 6c). This an example lesson from the beginning of our course Performance Hacks (opening July 1st 2025). It can be hard to imagine how the concepts of performance psychology actually fall into place for a performance. Hazel shows us how she managed her psychology for a climb where she needed to be completely focused. Much of the strategies used on a route like this could be just as helpful on a hard boulder, a sport project, a trad onsight or in a competition. Hazel is taking a bunch of climbers through her online training from July 1st – it’s all about finding flow, optimising your mindset for performance and tapping into the potential you already have.
