UPDATE:In response to their reply: Before tax, a student day pass used to be $12.5 (and included rentals), now it’s $24 for the pass + rentals.Original:Basically doubled in price since it became Movement. Not only did the price increase but they charge for rentals now too.(pic for visibility)

This was our first time here and we had a great experience. They recently changed companies from being Summit to Movement and all their special pricing (college, ladies night, two for 25, etc) will be gone come October 2023. Expect to spend at least a couple hours here on your first trip. You'll need to sign a waiver and go through a couple orientations before you can climb/boulder. They offer rock climbing (including auto-belay), bouldering, a small gym area upstairs, yoga, a ping pong table, and even a chess set. They provide all the gear you need for climbing in their climb pass price ($25 for adults, $17 for kids under 13) and also have gear there you can purchase, as well as healthy snacks and drinks. Admission is a few dollars cheaper if you bring your own gear. They have a small rock climbing and bouldering area upstairs for beginners/younger kids, but you're welcome to climb or boulder downstairs regardless of age. It's a chill environment, and everyone, staff and fellow customers, were all nice and helpful. Overall a great value for your money. We'll be back soon!

Ever since they got bought out by movement, it's not about the new climber anymore. Rentals aren't apart of your membership, and now they're $11 instead of $5.Staff are useless when trying to make a purchase, since now they have all these extra classes throughout the day, and you only have 2 maybe 3 people at the front desk to "help" you. You're going to wait an hour and have to keep pestering the staff.Loved going here before movement, but this management makes the experience for a new climber atrocious.

I've just recently got into climbing at the beginning of this year. It's been so fun to do with my partner and friends and so gratifying to see how much we've all grown physically and mentally. We go AT LEAST 3 times a week, and with the new "movement" rental charges, that's almost $40 dollars a week ON TOP OF the $88.77 monthly membership. And no there's no member price, its a flat rate. AND they're getting rid of all their discount days. Why?? The membership is already a HUGE splurge for all for us but we all found so much joy in climbing we made room for it in our budgets. But now?? I almost literally can't afford to go more than once a week. I don't wanna sound like a hippie or whatever, but climbing was already fairly hard to join in on due to price, but now it's straight up inaccessible. And I think that just goes against the spirit of climbing. The staff is so nice and they're so helpful, I wish I could give them 5 stars separately. But just a big fat middle finger to whoever is in charge of Movement and its policies/acquisitions. Greedy and grubby

At Movement Plano, I was introduced to the vibrant world of indoor climbing. The walls, decked with colorful holds, offered both challenge and excitement. Joining a Meetup group made the experience even more memorable, with supportive climbers and staff guiding us every step of the way. The thrill of navigating the routes and the camaraderie shared has me considering indoor climbing as my next hobby. Kudos to Movement Plano for such an outstanding introduction!

My husband has been a member for a while and we have brought 5 of our friends. The gym is great with lots of spaces and open and varied routes, this spring the routes didn't change for like 3 months but now things seem to have gotten back on track. I don't love some of the changes that took place when they went from Summit to Movement like the guest passes are not as prevalent and now they only do orientations for folks 3 times a day and you have to sign up in advance where before we could bring someone and they would wait less than 30 minutes for an orientation.

My kids had a super amazing time! They ranges from age 7 to 16 and they were able to do a variety of skill climbing. The staff is so nice and helpful. My two older teens learned to Belay from Sierra and she was the best! Kasen demonstrated the boulder climbing and he was so nice and helpful too! Will definitely be back!! Love this place!

$25 for a day pass. It was really busy on a Saturday at 11 but there was still plenty of options to choose from. The walls are so tall. I got scared many times at the top which was a rush. Seems like they have many avid climbers that go there. Nice crowd of guests. Random people cheer you on when you climb and people are courteous about taking turns. Did I mention how tall the walls are? Very tall!

My wife has been here twice now with our kiddos but I have never had a chance to experience Summing Climbing until today. It is amazing! There is plenty to do and the staff is very patient and helpful. I have not had a chance to rock climb in so long and it was such a fun experience. My kids like the bouldering aspect more and there is plenty of variety so you won't get bored. There is also a pingpong table and chess set. Light snacks and drinks are available too. Will definitely be back!
