Default training a climber

Hi,

I recently planted a climbing rose in the front of our house and I was
hoping to get some advice on the proper way to train it. I recently
took one of the stems and tried to (gently) pull it towards the
trellis I would like it to grow up. The stem ended up bending in a way
that didn't feel very healthy and I think I might have damaged it.
What is the proper way to do this?

Thanks,
Sonia
