I took the Intro to Climbing class today and had a wonderful time at the gym. The instructor, Ciaran, was tremendously knowledgeable, energetic, and supportive. At the end of the two-hour session, I felt like I picked up a great foundation and enthusiasm for climbing. It was awesome to then get the time to boulder at my own pace for the afternoon. The gym is incredible - great way to get introduced to climbing!

I had a great time at the gym. Molly was a great help with questions as a beginner rock climber!

I love the PRG. Lots of routes for Bouldering, top rope, and lead climbs. They have a few auto-belay routes too. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. I've had a good time meeting other climbers and everyone is fun to be around.

This was the first time I've ever gone indoor rock climbing and bouldering was so fun and really exhilarating to complete the walls and anna was super cool on the first ascent and really informative so I would 100% recommend this place for first time climbers!

I’ve been climbing for a little bit more than two months and I really like PRG. I also just took the belay class with the instructor Kieran and I feel that I learned a lot, I feel much more confident belaying and I had improved a so much!

Soon to be a member once they open up in Beaverton this summer (2023). The people working the front desk are super chill and friendly. The gym is wildly clean. Thanks PRG for creating a fun place to climb.

Really enjoyed my experience. I'm totally new to climbing and the instructor, Anne, did a great job teaching me the basics! She shared her love for climbing really well and passed some of it along to me :)

I love PRG! I've taken several classes with Brandon and the staff is so nice. Brian ended up joining us for the movement class and we had such a fun time with both of them. The staff is so incredibly helpful and friendly :) Even outside of class they care to get to know you and help you with your climbing progress. The routes are set really well and will keep you challenged while still providing lots of options. Lastly, the yoga classes and cafe are a huge bonus. PRG has become my home away from home.
