Classes
inSPIRE Rock is a great place to start climbing or take your skills to the next level. Our instructors teach two rope classes at the Spring location:
Top Rope Class: About one hour, ages 12 and up. Learn the fundamentals of top-rope belaying. No experience needed. $12.95 for non-members, free for members.
Lead Class: Three hours, ages 14 and up. Learn the safety and techniques you need to prepare for the lead test. $89 for non-members, $69 for members.
Looking for one-on-one help? We also offer private lessons and personal training for climbers with specific goals. Member class pricing does not apply to private lessons or pro-clinics unless explicitly stated.
You don’t need to take a class to climb. Every first-time guest gets an orientation that covers gym rules and basic climbing procedures. Take the Top Rope Class when you’re ready to learn to belay, then the Lead Class when you want to start lead climbing. Already know how to belay? Skip the class by passing our top-rope belay test. Just ask at the Welcome Desk.
