Tree ascents i.e. going up, is what most people associate with tree-climbing. Whilst indeed it is the most intuitive form of moving with the trees, it (tree-climbing) is 1 of 3 main domains we explore with Move With The Trees (the other two being tree-dancing & tree-running).
No one is obliged to climb high though. It is up to them and we will support them if they choose to. At workshops and classes all of my invitations to explore the trees are done in unique trees at ground level.
But if an individual wants to explore the process challenging themselves mentally and confirming the already established physical competence we have plenty of experience helping them with that process of understanding fear as a tool that can keep us safe but can also hinder us if not managed properly. (I don't recommend increasing the consequence if there is any doubt in one’s own physical ability... high consequence should = really easy moves).
