Classes FAQs Mod

Can my child take classes and/or belay?
Youth age 14+ may top-rope belay in the gym with the consent of their parent or guardian and after passing our top-rope belay test. Youth age 14+ may lead belay in the gym with the consent of their parent or guardian and after passing our lead belay test. Youth age 14+ may take our Intro to Climbing I and II classes. Youth age 14+ may take our Intro to Lead Climbing class. These age-related rules may be different for youth on our competitive and recreational climbing teams when under the supervision of their coaches.
What do I need to wear/bring to classes?
Wear clothes you are comfortable moving in. You may want to bring a water bottle and/or snack to the gym, too, (though we do have a water fountain and bottle filler available, as well as refreshments for sale). Classes include all climbing equipment needed, (climbing shoes, harness, chalk, belay device, and lead ropes for lead climbing).
I have a disability. Can I still learn to climb?
Yes! Climbers with a wide range of disabilities climb at the Stronghold. We have a very active adaptive climbing club that meets from 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM every Wednesday. You can email the gym at info@strongclimb.com or program director Dave van Beek at adaptive@strongholdclimb.com for more information.
