REC PROGRAMS
Kids Love to Climb
Our Youth Recreational Program is one of the best in the city for kids to jump into the world of climbing.
In the program, kids will focus on learning the fundamentals of climbing: body positioning, footwork, and movement. In addition, they will understand the variety of climbing holds, what climbing grades mean, and all the terminology to turn them into proper climbers.
Age Groups: Age 7-9, Age 10-12, Age 13-17
Each lesson typically begins with a warm-up followed by a mix of challenges, exercises/drills, bouldering and top rope time.
The younger age groups typically play more games and activities to teach terms and techniques, to keep it fun and engaging.
The program fee includes use of climbing shoes, harness, and chalk, as well as a Rec Program t-shirt.
