Why I Started Clmbmor

I didn’t grow up with access to nature, mentorship, or spaces that truly reflected my experience as a young Black boy navigating the world. Clmbmor was born from that gap—a calling to create what I wish I had. It’s more than a program. It’s a response to generational silence, to disconnection, to the ache of not being seen.

Clmbmor is where movement meets mindfulness. Where brotherhood forms on belay lines and trailheads. Where young Black men learn to climb the walls inside and around them—with breath, strength, and pride.


Clmbmor Mindset Program

A curriculum for resilience, reflection, and emotional intelligence.

The Clmbmor Mindset Program helps develop the internal tools to meet life’s challenges with strength and self-awareness. Grounded in mindfulness, neuroscience, and culturally relevant practices, the program teaches emotional regulation, self-confidence, and leadership from the inside out.

Through interactive workshops, guided breathwork, journaling, and open dialogue, participants learn how to pause, reflect, and choose growth—even when life gets tough. Whether in a classroom or at the climbing wall, Clmbmor meets them where they are.

Clmbmor Adventure Club

Movement, brotherhood, and Black joy in the outdoors.

The Clmbmor Adventure Club takes young Black men out of their comfort zones and into nature—literally and spiritually. From indoor climbing gyms to forest trails, we use outdoor adventure as a vehicle for trust-building, self-discovery, and joy.

Every trip combines physical challenge with mindful practice, including breathwork, stretching, group check-ins, and team-building exercises. We show up for each other. We celebrate the climb. And we make sure these young men know they belong—in nature, in community, and in their own skin.
