OKK offers personalized climbing training to climbers of all levels – regardless if it’s for bouldering or sport climbing. Whether your goal is getting your first red card route, learning new skills and refining your technique or just getting better at climbing bit by bit, we can help and support you with your training.
To whom?
Anyone can apply for coaching regardless of your starting level or goals. Climbing is primarily a technical sport, which is also affected by strength and endurance characteristics as well as the factors of the mental side. This palette is individual to every climber and it’s development goes best with a trainer beside you, charting your status and development targets.
How?
You can choose from the training packages below, or we can tailor a plan just for you. Coaching for small groups (2-3 persons) is also a possibility.
Coaching is based on the trainee’s own goals, and the training plan is always tailored to each person’s needs, wishes and possibilities. The trainee’s individual circumstances are taken into account so that climbing training fits into their everyday life and supports their overall well-being.

By who?
Our trainer at Oulu Climbing Center is Veera Virta. Veera got hooked on climbing about ten years ago. Primarily, Veera thinks of herself as a sport climber who enjoys climbing on the cliffs of Finland, Norway and southern Europe, but she has also gained experience in trad climbing and explored plenty of boulders. While working on her own climbing, she has gained knowledge, understanding and skills in climbing training, and she continues to develop her expertise in climbing training and coaching. Veera completed a professional qualification in coaching (2022-2023) and Health Coach training (2019-2020), and her coaching takes into account each individual’s overall well-being.
