Kids Club Taster sessions are a great way to get into bouldering and try out our Kids Club Memberships!
Kids will be in a small group with a coach who will guide them through skills and techniques that can be used both on and off the wall. Climbing is fantastic for agility, balance, coordination skills, confidence, and problem-solving abilities! Many kids who boulder learn abilities for life and continue the sport into adulthood!
The session is made up of warm-up games, skills coaching and open climbing in our world-class bouldering wall.

What to wear: Wear loose comfortable clothing (what you would wear to the gym). It can be a little chilly in the winter, so make sure you have some warm clothes.
