Xian Goh

I sought coaching from Xian after feeling like I had hit a plateau after 8 years of climbing, and unable to progress without causing additional injuries. After just under a year of monthly 1:1s, shes helped me break into the 7 range outdoors: my long-desired goal, and a tangible result that cant be argued with! Beyond that, shes helped improve more aspects of climbing than I expected - new techniques, projecting strategies, injury management, and performance head game. Her climbing experience and knowledge is vast (across boulder, sport, and trad) and she has insightful answers for every question Ive thrown her way. Shes also comprehensive and organised, documenting and ensuring I understand new techniques and giving me structures to practice them between our meetings. Additionally, shes passionate, professional, and a joy to work with - I look forward to continued training with her.

Xian is an incredibly passionate, cheerful, and hard working coach! Her years of experience really allowed her to show us how we can improve not just on the wall but off the wall as well, truly grateful!

I was hesitating to take coaching lessons for a while when I saw that Xian was offering 1:1 lessons. I am so glad I decided to go for it. Immediately she was able to assess my strength and weakness and gave personalised advice to improve my technique. Soon enough, I have managed to climb my first 7a outdoors. Xian is amazing at making everything fun to try and has excellent comprehension of climbing movement. She also helped me to work on my head game and trying harder climbs. She is also full of good advice when it comes to injuries & niggles.

Four of us, all regular boulderers, took a two-hour lesson with Xian. She is a great teacher and and made the session hugely absorbing and enjoyable. We really pushed on with key aspects of technique. Highly recommended.

I've attended group and individual climbing sessions with Xian and can't recommend her services enough! She is a brilliant coach; her sessions are fun, informative, and focused on helping you achieve your goals. Since having regular lessons with her, I've seen massive improvements in my technique and my confidence as a climber has grown as a result. Xian is awesome!
