Don't let a disability stop you or a friend from getting vertical. Whether you have a disability, know someone who may be interested, want to help others experience the joy of climbing, or are simply curious, drop by for this club. First-time gym visitors can try the club for FREE; otherwise, participation is included with the purchase of a day pass, or with Stronghold membership.
Despite physical challenges that would discourage most of us from attempting to tackle rock climbing, these local kids living with hand differences show us what it takes to reach new heights. Watch the video.

To whom it may concern,
My name is Arjuna Soriano and I am the father of Miles Soriano, a participant in the CATCH adaptive climbing program at the Stronghold Climbing Gym.
Ten months ago, my 14-year-old son was injured in a bicycle accident. He suffered a traumatic brain injury causing his central nervous system to not work properly leaving him with the inability to feel or use his legs.
First-time gym visitors can try the club for FREE (instruction, day pass, and gear rental is free that day); otherwise, participation is included with the purchase of a day pass, or with Stronghold membership.
We accept anyone with any level of disability. We do our best to give everyone some kind of climbing experience regardless of the severity of their disability. Come in and we'll give you an assessment and see what we can achieve together.
We have many climbers who use wheelchairs. Some climb the climbing wall and some use our adaptive chair system.
No experience necessary, our team of instructors will teach you from the ground up.
We have technical climbing equipment and setups that allow us to assist many different types of climbers.
No. You can drop in and climb any time between 6:30-9:30pm.
Yes everyone who enters the gym to climb must fill out a waiver at the front, or fill it out online before arriving.
Every Thursday Night!
6:30 PM - 9:30 PM
Whether you are interested in volunteering to help with the Stronghold's Adaptive Climbing program or participating yourself, be there to find out more!

Quinn Carson grew up in the midwest skateboarding, snowboarding, and wakeboarding. He longed for more adventure than the midwest had to offer and was drawn to California by the ocean and the mountains.
Read more ...All participants (climbing, fitness or yoga) must have a signed waiver. Minors (17 years and younger) must have a waiver signed by one of their parents or their legal guardian (sorry, aunts and uncles and older siblings, you've got to have Mom and Dad do it). You can also fill it in when you come at one of our waiver terminals, but filling it out online before you come in will make your first check-in easier.
