Introductory Climbing Programs
Introduce your children to rock climbing. Our gym and equipment are adapted to the youngest riders, allowing them to take their first steps on the wall in complete safety.
Your child can learn safety techniques in a fun way, and make his or her first ascent with a smile on his or her face! Our beginner’s training programs enable novices to discover climbing in complete safety. Our aim is to teach them how to use a belay device, to become independent, to learn how a climber moves, to make their first moves on the wall and above all… to complete their first routes!
Take advantage of full-day or half-day outdoor outings adapted to all levels during courses and workshops.
