The topic of rhythm and climbing came up at a recent climbing movement class I'm taking. Got me thinking and I wrote this article with my thoughts on climbing with rhythm.

Climbers don't have rhythm. Have ever noticed a climber on a dancefloor or awkwardly thrashing when his favorite song comes on at the gym?

Do I need to remind you of the prevailing white-ness of this endeavor?

That is great to see climbers dancing. They are proving again and again how much they are adventurous. Hats off to you all. Being a beginner in rock climbing , I can proudly say there wasn't another activity that gave me as much fun and as much joy as rock climbing

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
