- Waiver always required at climbing gyms — sign it online before you go to skip the front-desk line
- First timer? bouldering needs zero experience — rent shoes and walk in; staff will point you at the easiest problems

From the reviews
I love this gym. Way more comprehensive than the chain gyms - which are the only other gyms in the area. I have a community membership which is affordable for me. It also gets me access to the pool. 🙌🏽

Shout out to Kennedy and everyone who helped us when my husbands Achilles ruptured last week! Their emergency response is very prompt and I appreciate all your kindness!
It’s good. But most off the machines are out of date. They have small badminton court as well. Not much good experience
