WE ARE A TEXAS-BASED ORGANIZATION THAT CREATES SPACE FOR WOMEN AND GENDERQUEER HUMANS TO CLIMB AND SOCIALIZE IN A FUN, SUPPORTIVE AND EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT.
About TxLC
Texas Lady Crushers (TxLC) was created in January of 2018 by San Antonio native, Emilie Hernandez. While it started as a simple meet-up group for rock climbing women who live and travel throughout the state, shortly after the membership to gender non-conforming (GNC) and trans identities as well.
Climbing Clinics, Retreats, and Outdoor Education
Texas Lady Crushers is dedicated to introducing new climbers to the climbing community in a mindful, intentional, and supportive manner. We also want to provide opportunities for more experienced climbers to advance their skills in a controlled environment. We work with certified guides from the American Mountain Guide Association, and non-profit organizations to provide our members with educational clinics and experiences for current and future Texas Lady Crushers, and our community as a whole.
