MYKC Warrior Climbing Event - Free for Twelve Veterans, Police, EMS, Fire and DOC
Climbing can help reduce the effects of anxiety and depression, along with increasing mental focus. Climbing helps to keep you in the moment and mindful of your movements. While climbing, many participants experience active meditation when planning your next move. Climbing also helps build a level of trust and intimacy with your partner as you rely on each other for your safety.

The hour on the mat prepares you for the twenty-three hours off the mat."
