After School Programs
The place for your youth to explore, grow, and climb after school
Our after school programs feature climbing, activities, discovery and social time, no matter the experience level. After school programs are for youth ages 3-15.
Mini-Mountaineers Drop-In Class (Ages 3-4)
A 45-minute drop-in class for our youngest climbers to channel their explosive, creative energy into climbing in a safe, fun environment with their parent or caretaker! Excellent option for kids who are already exploring climbing structures at the playground and more. Participants will develop their risk assessment, basic body awareness, and teamwork.
Participants must be potty trained.
Offered every Sunday from 9:00am – 9:45pm and on limited Mondays from 3:00pm – 3:45pm.
Pebbles 10-Week Session (Ages 5-6)
This class introduces young climbers to the fundamentals while building up their skills. Watch as they grow and have a blast reaching new heights! Each week, we will introduce climbers to a new concept and grow on the previous weeks’ focus. Students will work on risk assessment, safety, problem-solving, and so much more in a fun, social environment.
Enrollment for the full 10-week session is required.
Rocks 10-Week Sessions (ages 7-9)
This fun-filled class strengthens the basics of climbing, like footwork and body awareness, to deepen their understanding. Additionally, climbers will be introduced to more complex topics such as power, static vs. dynamic movement, and more, in a gamified approach.
Enrollment for the full 10-week session is required.
Boulders 10-Week Sessions (ages 10-12)
This class helps young climbers reach new heights by solidifying foundational techniques, fostering an approach mindset, and utilizing challenge-by-choice. Climbers will begin to focus on improving effort and pushing themselves further into their personal growth zones. Starting in February.

- Youth under the age of 14 must be closely accompanied by an adult at all times.
- Our supervision ratio is 2 to 1; up to 2 youth climbers can be supervised by 1 adult chaperone at a time.
- Stay far from the walls and out of fall zones when moving through the gym or waiting to climb. A “fall zone” is anywhere on the mats where a climber could land if they were to fall.
- Make sure to check where a route ends before starting to climb–some routes are close together or even overlap, and you don’t want to end up directly above, below, or next to another climber.
- This is a climbing gym! Please save running, wrestling, horseplay, and gymnastics for other spaces.
Due to programming, the youth room is unavailable on certain days and times each week. When not in use for programming, the Youth Room is open and available for you to enjoy! To stay in the know, check out our Youth Room highlight on Instagram.
In general, the Youth Room is unavailable during the following times:
- Weekdays from 4 PM – 6PM
- Weekends from 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM
- When Adventure Days & Weeks are occurring
- When a private birthday event is booked (often occurring on Saturdays and Sundays: 12:30 PM – 2:30 PM, 3 PM – 5 PM)
