Reach new heights! Our Chelsea location is home to one of the largest indoor rock climbing gyms in New York City and is one of the most challenging rock walls in the country. The main wall, bouldering wall and bouldering cave offer over 11,000 square feet of sculpted, three-dimensional climbing surface with numerous, and continually changing climbing routes.
With a low student-to-teacher ratio, the 4-week Climbing Schools offer beginners through experienced climbers the opportunity to improve technique and become more fluid and efficient.
Check out an Open Climb session with a partner or group of friends and enjoy 1-hour of climbing under the supervision of an experienced Rock Wall instructor.
Receive the special attention you need to target the appropriate techniques and/or challenges that you seek to conquer, or simply to learn the basics of the sport.
Every climber needs to take this class or must be able to demonstrate a clear understanding prior to climbing.
For Members Only.
