How do I get started climbing at Ascension?

Whether it’s your first time to the gym or your first time climbing, we are here to help! Everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary to have a great time. Climbing is a great, full-body workout as well!

What do I need to wear?

Athletic or loose fitting clothing is best, but almost anything can work. Some people climb in jeans and a t-shirt, you might have a more limited range of motion in jeans, though. We have climbing shoes to rent, and rentals are free on your first visit!

Anything else I need to know?

Save time by filling out a liability waiver ahead of time, or have a parent/legal guardian fill one out if you’re under 18. Children under 12 must be supervised by an adult while in the gym.

Due to our COVID-19 capacity, it’s a good idea to make a reservation before visiting. Plan on arriving 10 minutes before so we can get you checked in and orientation started to make the most of your time.
