Women who RAW! Programming for women's participation in adventure based pursuits
Numerous constraints have been identified over recent years as impeding women's participation in leisure. Although these limitations have been recognised, and the benefits of participation acknowledged, the role of providers and policy makers in reducing the impacts of constraints has been less clear. This article examines one local government initiative to encourage women's participation in a range of adventure-based physical recreation pursuits…
Traditional climbing
This article examines the ways in which climbers negotiate their leisure activity within a social context. It is suggested that the wider social context is one of rationalized society, whereby efficiency and growth have become ends in themselves. Although climbing is depicted as a 'free area' in which climbers attempt to achieve a relative freedom from this society, the encroachment of rationalized society into the activity means that climbers fi…
Rewriting the heroic script
This article investigates the suggestion that the leisure activity of rockclimbing represents a contemporary manifestation of heroic activity, and that the opportunity to engage with the heroic identity forms part of the attraction of rockclimbing. The traditional nature of the hero is male, in flight from committed relationships and devoted to an ethic of action and conquest. An investigation of a rockclimbing community revealed that the constru…
Control Over Self and Space in Rockclimbing
The leisure experience has been defined with reference to the quality of self-determination. A qualitative study of a community of rockclimbers indicated that self-determination, or a person's control over the structure of the activity, was an important element that determined satisfaction within the rockclimbing experience, particularly (though not exclusively) for women climbers. This attribute appears to be a precondition for the experience of…
Self-Control
Adventure always provides a powerful learning experience, but not always a positive one. Four components are identified which create the powerful learning situation: an experiential learning base; a simple yet meaningful reality; cooperation; and intensity of feeling. To optimize the chances of creating a positive experience, four other components should be present: a means of processing the experience, success, choice, and a humane climate. Thes…
