Looking for a fun and supportive place for your child to receive climbing instruction?
G1’s Recreational Youth Programs are a great place for kids who are new to climbing as well as those with previous climbing experience. These programs are designed to teach kids about the sport of rock climbing and gain climbing experience in a non-competitive format.
Our youth coaches are passionate about building life skills and confidence in each program that we offer. We offer much more than just rock climbing lessons, as participants will develop their problem-solving skills, discover effective communication methods, and become more resilient humans in a safe and structured environment.
