Best climbing instructor ever! Riley on Saturday mornings is amazing with the teens. Please instruct again as he was super super good!!! Great instruction, extremely attentive, makes the class super fun and knows how to keep kids engaged and happy. The best instructor we have had yet (and we have had four different ones!) so kudos to Riley! We are so sad he's not teaching a winter teen class! (Pleasssseee bring him back!!!)

Good gym in a convenient location with friendly staff. That said, the washrooms could really use some attention. The stall doors have large gaps that were taped over, which isn’t a great solution. The toilets also seem outdated - the tanks are huge, waste a lot of water, and don’t flush properly. A bit of investment in upgrading the facilities would really improve the overall experience.

I am a first time climber and their class for beginners 14+ was so clear and concise. Easy to understand. All the staff was so sweet the entire time. The walls are very intricately designed and very fun to climb!!! We'll be returning for weekly climbing sessions.

This gym has great staff and a good selection from both top rope climbs and boulders. It is not huge compared to other gyms, but it's nice to do a little bit of everything there. I love how their boulder wall has some climbs that end on the top of the wall. It is unique from other gyms and fun to make it to the top and look down. They do also have a gym section in the back to train, but it can get a little busy sometimes. Overall 10/10 would recommend.

My son takes two-hour climbing lessons here every Saturday and absolutely loves it. He looks forward to it all week and is always excited to go. The instructors are extremely professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. The staff overall is fantastic - helpful, encouraging, and attentive to each child’s needs. The center itself is well-organized, clean, and located in a convenient area. It’s a safe and positive environment where kids can build both skill and confidence. I’m truly impressed with the level of service and the quality of instruction provided. Highly recommend this climbing center to any parent looking for a fun and professional place for their child to learn and grow through climbing!
