Claire Gordon 

NCSF Certified Strength Coach, Founder

I began competing in 2004 out of a small gym in Chicago. I went on to compete at a national level in the US, Germany and France. 

 

I coached with the Planet Granite team from 2015-2019 and then with Team ABC from 2019-2022. I have served as an assistant with the US Youth National Team since 2021. 

​

I received my bachelor's in psychology from Lewis and Clark College with an emphasis on developmental psychology. 

​

As a coach I specifically focus on elite female competitors. I hope to help athletes navigate climbing through puberty. With older athletes I put an emphasis on aligning their training cycle with their menstrual cycle. 

​

I continue to pursue climbing at a high level, mostly outdoors these days, but can occasionally be convinced to enter a competition. 

​

I recently completed my NCSF (National Council on Strength and Fitness) Strength Coach Certification and am pursuing my masters in clinical psychology at University of Northern Colorado. 

Who I Work With

Female Elite Competitors

My private lessons, clinics and virtual training plans are tailored to youth athletes competing in female categories. 

I work with athletes with a desire to progress through the USAC and IFSC competition circuits.
