ClimbiNg INSTRUCTION
Improve your climbing ability with programs designed to boost technique and confidence on the walls
BELAY LESSON
Rope climbers must pass our belay certification test prior to top rope climbing (the tall walls). The best way to pass this test is to take a belay lesson. If you already know how to tie a figure-8 follow through knot, and are familiar with the P.L.U.S. method of belaying, the lesson may not be required.
Adult Training Program
The Adult Training Program is for those seeking coached instruction and personalized training plans to polish their skills. This group is equal parts technical and strength-oriented.
PRICING: $220/month
