Jessica Jenkins
I have been climbing for 17 years and coaching for 10+ years. Personally, I have climbed up to 5.13d in sport and V9 in bouldering. I am passionate about climbing, obviously, but a fun fact is I also love to read and paint!
My philosophy is to help those I work with reach their goals and break through barriers! I love working with motivated and psyched individuals who are looking to push themselves regardless of their current level. I build strong climbers, am big on communication, and love to hear not only about your successes, but also your struggles.
“I have been working with Jess for over a year and I can’t recommend her enough! She listens to your short, medium, and long-term goals and helps craft a sustainable training program for your current outdoor goals at 6-8 week intervals. She is a great resource for optimizing your gym training to prepare for a specific style of route at any grade. Jess also programs for injury prevention and has worked alongside my PT for injury rehabilitation, which is a huge plus! She is readily available via text and often responds within a day or even within a session. I think her strengths really show in giving technique feedback both remotely and in person. I recommend Jess to self-motivated individuals who have ambitious outdoor goals, want to build a long-term coach-climber relationship, and are willing to put in the work beyond your average “8 week” training cycle! ” – Sam Palanuk
