Kinder
Climbing / Recreational
Youth (Ages 3 to 7)
These
classes were developed
to introduce children
ages 3 to 7 to the
fascinating world of
climbing. Students will
learn the following
basic skills: properly
securing shoes and
harness, clipping into
the rope properly,
commonly used safety
commands, following tape
colors, indentifying
basic climbing
sequences, terminology,
and much more.
Beginning Youth Climbing
(Ages 7+)
This
class was developed to
further enhance a
climber’s knowledge
attained from our Kinder
Climbing class. Climbers
will continue to sharpen
basic skills, but also
receive more in depth
instruction such as
using basic climbing
techniques to overcome
climbing difficulties,
identifying types of
holds and the ways to
use them, understanding
and identifying which
body part to move, and
basic route reading
(describing an entire
route without climbing
it).
