OUR MISSION: INTRODUCE KIDS TO AN EMPOWERING, REWARDING, AND LIFELONG SPORT THAT IS JUST PLAIN FUN!
Climbing evokes a wonderful mix of physical, mental and emotional challenges making it the right environment for children to develop skills in problem-solving, self-reliance, discipline, teamwork, and character.
Our age-based, progressive program is designed to provide a structured approach for kids of all abilities. Our game-driven activities let us learn and grow all while having an absolute blast!

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

- Student/teacher ratio:
- Ages 4-10: 4 to 1 ratio
- Ages 11 & up: 6 to 1 ratio
Most newer climbers will begin in the standard age group/curriculum. Students with significant climbing experience will be evaluated by a Lead Youth Instructor or Youth Coordinator and placed appropriately.
At the end of each session, a progress report will be issued to the child and parent, and at that time it may be recommended that they move to an advanced version of their age group class

AGES 5-6: SCRAMBLERS
Scramblers (ages 5-6) engage in many forms of climbing in pursuit of their first “summit” of our rock walls while learning basic safety skills, footwork, and movement skills. Through student-centered games, we encourage each student to attempt climbs on terrain they might not otherwise try, and we strive to make their time on the wall instructive, satisfying, and a whole lot of fun.
Scramblers classes available:
Saturdays 10:00AM-11:00AM
AGES 6-8: ROCK HOPPERS
Rock Hoppers (ages 6-8) are ready to begin moving away from our vertical walls and on to steeper, more challenging terrain. We utilize fun games and competitions to emphasize the importance of footwork, sequencing (planning your next climbing move), and body positioning over pure strength as Rock Hoppers continue to work their hardest climbs yet.
Rock Hoppers classes available:
Saturdays 11:15 AM-12:15 PM
AGES 9-10: ROCK WARRIORS
Rock Warriors (ages 9-10) engage in all styles of climbing to refine core movement skills, master intermediate footwork and begin to develop a fundamental understanding of the interaction between body position, gravity, and rock. We incorporate unique movement specific exercises to develop motor memory and an intuitive feeling for how to attack any combination of rock holds and positions.
Rock Warriors classes available:
Saturdays 12:30 PM-1:30 PM
AGES 11-13: STONE MASTERS
Stone Masters (ages 11-13) continue building their climbing skill set by exploring more complex “specialty” moves, sequencing skills, advanced rope work, and strength training for climbing. Some Stone Masters may work toward our Team Prep series (or even a direct try-out for the competitive team). Several levels of Advanced Curriculum are available for returning Stone Masters, and will be applied individually, at the instructors discretion.
Stone Masters classes available:
Saturdays 1:45 PM-3:15 PM
AGES 14-17: YOUTH CLIMBING CLUB
Youth Climbing Club will give your child the opportunity to continue their growth without any pressure of competition as well as with an age group that is appropriate for them. We will incorporate elements of connection such as clinics, post-class get-togethers, and fun local competition opportunities. This class will be instructed by 2 experienced Youth Instructors who will offer assessment, supervision, camaraderie building, and encouragement while your climber reaches their goals.
