Vic Fitzgerald, climbing coach in NYC

Vic Fitzgerald

Years coaching: N/A

After many years in academia, and corporate America, I left a career in law and conflict resolution and to pursue my love of climbing and the outdoors full time in 2023.

I'm now a youth coach in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and love getting kids outside to the crag. I am also a single pitch outdoor rock climbing guide. I love watching folks discover their love of climbing, especially outdoors, and watching their growth as a climber. I strive to provide climbers with the skills to feel confident going outside safely on their own--knowing their doing so in the safest, most risk mindful way as possible. My overall goal is to make anyone interested in climbing feel comfortable, safe, and believe there is space for everyone on the cliff.

I also have experience with calling for visually impaired climbers.
