Ego lifters chucking weights at 6am wake up everyone in the building. Staff refuse to enforce gym rules, too busy on their phones filming tik toks or hitting their dab pens out front. Get some new management to run this place.

I come to this gym almost every day sometimes even twice a day. I love it. There is climbing, lifting/Cardio, yoga classes and even a sauna! It’s also a very social gym which is nice for a city like DC. They have done their best to make climbing safe but it is up to each climber know their limits. Also they have routes for all skill levels. Great gym, worth checking out

I won a 10 day hospital stay after falling from a downclimb and absolutely decimating my tibia. It required surgery and two months later I'm still unable to walk. Judging by the story of a broken ankle in the Google reviews, its not just me. Especially since, I broke my leg in early April and the other review was posted in May.I hope management is reviewing the incident reports their staff takes to figure out how to make their gym safer. That said, the employees were really nice and helpful when I was hurt.But yeah, 0/10 recommend if you like having your bones intact.

This is easily the coolest gym I've ever joined- they really have something for everyone! The climbing walls are changed weekly, they offer a range of classes, weight lifting, and they even have a workspace area. I spend countless hours here each week!!! Couldn't speak more highly of this place and their staff!!! :))

Decent boulders and workout space. But not enough to justify a $29 day pass.

I love this place! And i also had a Intro to Climbing lesson with Jake - he was excellent! He is so passionate about this sport and it was a super helpful lesson. Thank you to him and the team at DC Bouldering!

Cool space! Highly recommend the intro-to-climbing package for anyone who is new and interested in learning more about climbing! It’s a very low stakes and fun environment! Lots to explore!
