Taster Session Day for adults and kids age 4+ (Tuesday 26th - Half Term) £7

Curious about bouldering but not sure where to start?

Join us at the Climbing Commons for a fun, friendly indoor bouldering taster session designed for complete beginners and newer climbers. Whether you’re booking for your child or trying bouldering as an adult for the first time, these coached sessions will help you get started safely and confidently.

Each session lasts 1 hour and is guided by experienced instructors. You’ll learn the basics of using the wall safely, how to warm up, how to move on the wall, and how to choose climbs that suit your confidence and ability.

No experience needed. Just bring comfortable clothing, a willingness to have a go, and plenty of enthusiasm. We can lend you some climbing shoes if you don’t have any (please bring socks).

Book your session for £7 from the link in the bio.
