What is the Caruso method?
It is climbing better, doing less. Or rather, using our physical skills in a much more structured way.
It is about understanding the mechanisms inherent in every climber, linked to the forces of gravity, the laws of object movement and gravity, so as to better coordinate our movements and climb more fluidly, harmoniously and efficiently.
It means being able to build functional, reproducible and efficient progressions, where most climbers are in a form of instinctive climbing, relying on no other parameter than personal practice.
It means making full use of the potential of the breath - which is the conscious and directed use of the breath - to increase climbing efficiency, but also to better manage emotions, stay centered and achieve "flow".
It's about mastering balance before using strength as a means of progression.
This method was developed by Paolo CARUSO - hence its name - when he asked "How do you learn to climb?" and the answer was "Climb!" From that moment on, he has never ceased, even today, to provide all climbers with hypersimple, yet powerful tools! He didn't invent anything per se, just succeeded in creating a method, a learning tool that accelerates learning, promotes body awareness, and enables much faster progress.
In September 2020, I completed the training to become the first French instructor of the Caruso method, and since then I've had immense pleasure in sharing this tool that brings us back to our center, to ourselves. And it generates a profound sense of inner joy, far surpassing the quest for performance, even if this is a natural outcome of learning the Caruso method.
