Youth Climbing Clubs
The place for your youth to explore, grow, and climb
Our climbing clubs feature climbing, activities, discovery and social time, no matter the experience level. Climbing clubs are designed for youth ages 1-14.
Mini-Mountaineers (Ages 18mo -3yrs)
Our Mini Mountaineers Class is an exploratory climbing class designed for our littlest climbers (ages 18 months to 3 years). During each 30-minute session, your child will strengthen their motor and emotional development through obstacle courses, falling exercises, games, and climbing. By the end of the program, your little adventurer’s confidence and climbing abilities will soar. The ticket includes three 30-minute sessions per month.
Parent participation required.
Pebbles (Ages 4-5)
Pebbles is a class for climbers to channel their explosive, creative energy into climbing in a fun, safe environment. Each week, we will introduce climbers to a new concept and grow on the previous weeks’ focus. Students will work on risk assessment, body awareness, teamwork, problem solving, and so much more in a an exciting social environment. Each session is one month long (either 4 or 5 weeks of class), with 1 hour of class per week.
Rocks (ages 6-8)
Rocks is designed for kids ages 6-8. Classes are 1.5 hours long and meet weekly for four weeks. In this stage of after-school programming, climbers will revisit fundamental concepts like footwork and body awareness. We will cover topics such as power, static vs. dynamic movement, and breathwork while keeping kids engaged with group climbing games. The rocks program focuses on group encouragement and building confidence in an active environment.
Boulders (ages 9-12)
Boulders is a one-month session of 2 hour long classes for climbers ages 9-12. This program is designed for both new and more experienced climbers alike: instructors will focus on the individual needs of each climber while creating a supportive group atmosphere to build community and love for movement. Kids will participate in activities that promote technique, strength, and balance and focus on improving effort and pushing themselves further into their personal growth zones.
- 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.
