With 8 years of climbing experience and a background in personal training, Enrique brings a strong foundation in athletic development and a passion for progress. Before discovering climbing in the Philippines, he was a dedicated middle- and long-distance runner, drawn to the steady pursuit of self-improvement—an approach he now applies to coaching.
Known for his attention to detail and uplifting attitude, Enrique works to instill both physical effort and mental resilience in his athletes. He values the power of connection and is committed to understanding each climber as a unique individual. When he’s not on the wall, you’ll likely find him at the gym, on a treadmill, or enjoying quality time in good company.

As a former comp kid, Charlie brings an understanding of competition strategy and balanced training approach to the team. He lives for coordination boulders, slab, and any movement based climb. He emphasizes a humble, gritty, persevering mentality. When he’s not coaching, Charlie is running, lifting, or locked in the library with his engineering homework.

With nearly 10 years of climbing experience and 9 years of competition experience in the youth, collegiate, and elite circuits, she brings a unique perspective to coaching with extensive firsthand experience as an athlete. Currently pursuing a degree in Exercise Science, she combines her experience as a competitive climber with her academic background in movement and sports performance.

Climbing has been at the center of my life since I started competing at age 9, and I’ve been channeling that lifelong "team kid energy" into coaching competitive youth athletes since 2017. Over the past 9 years, my journey has included head coach experience, routesetting commercially and for the open comp scene, working with a wide range of athletes, and being recognized by the Positive Coaching Alliance. My coaching style blends a deep obsession with movement mechanics and training nuance with a core mission: mentoring good humans, not just good climbers, who compete with passion and sportsmanship. I am incredibly stoked to bring this energy to the Method crew—let's get to work!
