She Moves Mountains
Climbing Retreats and Skills Clinics
​
She Moves Mountain's mission is to create an inclusive and empowering educational space for all women—including cisgender and transgender individuals—to realize their strengths through outdoor retreats and skills clinics.
SMM offers a diverse range of programs that cater to individuals of all skill levels, and welcome everyone from complete beginners to experts.
​
For this program, we’re partnering with Elaina Arenz and the team at New River Mountain Guides to bring you world-class instruction in one of the most storied climbing destinations in the U.S.
​
You can expect a supportive, skill-forward weekend that balances high-quality instruction with the kind of community She Moves Mountains is built on—so you leave not only having climbed a lot, but also understanding why things work, and feeling more capable the next time you tie in.

The New River Gorge is the kind of place that makes you fall in love with climbing (or fall back in love with it). Think towering sandstone, featured holds, and endless options. Come as you are— whether you're starting at zero or refining your movement—and get skill-forward coaching in small groups. Expect the kind of community that makes it easy to challenge yourself and ask questions—and leave with more confidence, better technique, and new climbing friends.
