ABC (adult beginner class) and Improver sessions
Cost is just your normal entrance fee. No extra cost for the actual session.
Supervised by our qualified instructors, both sessions follow the same topics and are tailored to the ability of each group. The adult beginner classes are ideal for those who have just completed an induction or have just started climbing with their friends.
Our Improver sessions are ideal for those who have been climbing for a couple of months to a year and can climb around a Font 6a grade. These sessions are great for those who want to progress to the next level with the help of a coaches.
The 8 Week session plan will take you through a wide variety of new climbing techniques, hold types and wall angles to help you get the most out of your climbing.
Both sessions are also a great way to meet new people and find climbing friends.
