The Mountains Are Calling.

Are You Ready?

Whether you're a veteran mountaineer or stepping into alpine terrain for the first time, the mountain favors those who are ready. Every ascent tests your strength, balance, and endurance—not just physically, but mentally and spiritually.

At Fulcrum, we train for the climb. Our physics-driven approach builds mobility for technical terrain, strength for the summit push, and resilience for whatever the mountain throws your way. Because true success isn’t just reaching the top—it’s moving with precision, adapting with confidence, and knowing you have the power to go beyond.

For the next year we’re offering all mountaineering course participants an exclusive deal—50% off two months of our team training membership. Plus, get the option to add small group training for a customized, focused approach to build the strength, mobility, and endurance you need to reach your goals. Also, if you refer a friend you get your third month FREE!

We’ve got you covered.

Alpine-Inspired

From the beginning, Fulcrum’s training philosophy has been informed by “Training for the New Alpinism” by legendary climbers Steve House and Scott Johnston.

Founder and developer of the Fulcrum Matrix, David Levy, is an avid free-climber and fellow Mazama. Our training benefits all walks of life, but is especially suited for climbing.
