It was such a great experience! Signed up for a fundamental class since my boyfriend and I had zero experience. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Zach our instructor was very patient and super encouraging. Overall it was super fun and a great workout. I would totally recommend others to check this place out.

Showed up here from out of town with two local friends of mine. Forgot my shoes and needed rentals. :(Still can’t express how great of a session I had. The gym really covers LOTS of wall angles with interesting setting. Excellent boulder density on the wall too.Not only did I leave this place with one of the better sessions I’ve had in a while, I also met some other locals I’m still in touch with today. What an encouraging, and friendly local community here in Columbus.
