Espresso Lessons: Practical Mental Fitness Applications in Stress and Risk Situations with author Arno Ilgner
-
Presentation Description:
Arno’s first book, The Rock Warrior’s Way, outlines the foundation of the Warrior’s Way ® material. His second book, Espresso Lessons, takes the material into practical climbing situations.

Mental fitness training is simply improving your ability to keep attention in the moment. The most challenging—and interesting—moment in rock climbing is when your mind doubts whether or not you can continue climbing. Knowing when it is appropriate to push through this doubt and when to back off is critical for taking appropriate risks.

Join Arno for an insightful evening of applying the Warrior’s Way mental training material to practical climbing situations.
