Coaches focus on fun while helping kids grow into strong, fit, and motivated climbers.

• End-of-session progress reports
• Guidance on next steps: Junior Climbers or Club Climbers (based on skill + availability)
• Climb with peers in a positive, community-focused environment

Waivers

All visitors must check in at the front desk and have a completed waiver on file. This includes:

• Climbers
• Non-climbing visitors
• Parents dropping off or picking up who want to go beyond the front desk

We recommend filling out a waiver for both yourself and your child so you can observe the class if desired. To minimize class disruptions, observation is limited to the first and last 15 minutes of each class.

Attendance

We understand that students may miss 1–2 classes. The program is built to accommodate occasional absences.

Please note:

• Make-up classes are not offered due to limited space
• If your child would benefit from additional instruction, private lessons may be scheduled for an additional fee
