ALWAYS EVOLVING
CLIMBING IS A LIFELONG PATH.
Never Static – that’s how we grow. We offer climbing classes in the Boston area at our Somerville gym for all ages and experience levels, from youth programs for the next generation of rock climbers, to classes aimed at climbers ready to make the next leap forward on their path. Check out our classes below.

In this class you will learn how to tie a figure eight knot, how to use a GriGri, how to check an indoor top rope system, and gain the experience needed to start your top rope adventure. You will leave class with the skills needed to pass a top rope belay test. This class includes an extra day pass to come back and take a top rope belay test.

YOUTH CLIMBING CLASSES
Watching a child apply natural ability and curiosity to our walls is to witness the power of our sport. Yes, it’s meant to be fun, but under the guidance of our Youth Programs, climbing becomes a vehicle for developing resilience, confidence, and problem solving. Maybe most importantly, this is a place to build community and real life experiences.

Absolutely! Refining your skills & fundamentals are keys to progression.
Intentionally practice the skills and drills from Bouldering 1 for a few months. A great place to do this is in Circuit Sessions!
You can also repeat Bouldering 1 as many times as you want!
We recommend taking Bouldering 2 after you’ve taken Bouldering 1 and have been climbing for another couple of months.
When you find yourself pushing into the Purple circuit, or when you find yourself hitting a plateau in progression through the upper circuits, is another good indicator you may be ready for Bouldering 2.
