What a fun place! Be prepared to walk in your first time and your jaw crash to the ground. While this looks like a massive place, it is more massive when you enter due to the sunken floor with stadium step seating. Colored pegs litter the climbing walls, chatter bounces around the gym, people greeting you.
Climbing for all levels happens here. Hop to their website to find a climbing class and clinics for you. I took a belay class with 10 friends and we just had the best night and learned a lot of climbing safety with hands on experience.
There are several walls to get you rolling, we started on what I call the baby wall, maybe 10 feet tall. This is where we learned knot tying, safety steps, and the bare basics of climbing. Once Luke and Lilly helped us learn and learn and learn, we went to the step up wall which IS a step up, I would say about 30 feet (a guess). They helped us learn the climbing talk and acted as a safety backup to ensure our climbing partner was safe as we learned how to belay with a climber. Talk about trust!
After our belay class, I was able to walk around and take it all in. On the top floor there is a workout space, cardio, yoga/barre classes, and I stumbled into what I think is a kids wall (so cool). The second from the top floor looks like lounging, pingpong, just a hangout space. I think this is where the kid climbing wall is access so a fun game space would make sense. The walk to get to the top floor and the kid-ish space is magnificent. It looks upon the massive, extra grownup wall... maybe 60 feet or higher (also a guess). (Bouldering, lead climbing and top rope options.) Climbers of all kind working their magic, onlookers sitting on small cushioned spaces watching and relaxing.
A small store is also available to purchase climbing gear. I didn't look too deep at this but I am sure buyers can find what they need to make their climbing collection compete.
Parking in plenty, elevators for access (I wonder if they have an adapted program??), people working are super friendly and informative! Pricing is steepish (in my eyes and if you plan on going three times a month, it might be worth this to just buy a monthly membership). Equipment available to rent as well. Lots of pricing options like yoga/workout only, climbing, daily, monthly, and discounted memberships as you add more people to your primary membership.
An exciting place to learn and play!
