Rock Climbing: Beginner Bouldering (Adult + Child)

One adult and one child, grades 1-5. Register under the child’s name. Curious about rock climbing but don’t know where to start? Bring your favorite adult and enjoy a day of bouldering! Bouldering is a type of indoor rock climbing that doesn’t require any special harnesses or ropes.

Part of class will be dedicated to formal instruction, after which adult/child pairs will be able to explore and practice bouldering on their own. Bouldering gym staff will check in with pairs frequently to provide climbing advice and pointers. All participants (youth and adults) will be provided climbing shoes at the beginning of the class, though, participants are welcome to bring their own, if desired.

Most classes include sliding-fee options designed to provide financial flexibility for community members who may need support in order to participate. We encourage participants to choose the amount they are able to pay. This model helps ensure our programs remain financially sustainable while also promoting equity and increasing accessibility for all members of our community.
