Kids and Family Sessions
Family tasters
Our most popular session! 1.5hrs of climbing fun for the whole family with your own private fully qualified instructor giving you a ‘taste’ of all aspects of indoor climbing; bouldering, rope climbing and auto belay. Tailored to everyone’s individual needs and abilities, if you don’t wish to climb you can be shown how to hold the ropes for the kids. All equipment provided. Up to 9 people. Prices from £45 (1 person) to £145 (6-9 people).
Kids tasters
Same format as our family tasters but just for the kids, ages 5+. Your kids will have their own instructor who will tailor the session to their individual needs and abilities. Prices from £45 for one child.
Kids clubs / NICAS
Weekly structured climbing clubs following the National Indoor Climbing Award Scheme (‘NICAS’) at a ratio of just 1:6. Kids clubs have a strong emphasis on personal development, not just their climbing skills but more generally. Together with the social aspect of club climbing these sessions can really bring out the best in your kids.
Indy Kids (ages 7-11) and Indy Squad (ages 11+). £119 per 7-week block (£17 per session). £20 deposit to book.

Birthday parties
Let us take care of entertaining the kids for a birthday party. 1.5hrs of climbing fun for all abilities with a private instructor, all equipment included.

What to Expect
All kids’ sessions are led by our fully qualified and very experienced instructors who will deliver a bespoke climbing experience based on individual and group ability levels. Safety is taken very seriously but risk cannot be completely removed. See participation statement.

We’ll fit your child with climbing shoes, a harness and helmet when needed. Everything is included in the session price.
Safety Prep
Your instructor will run through the safety rules and warm everyone up with some easy climbing games.
Climb and Play
Time on the wall! Your instructor will maximise climbing time, guiding the group through bouldering, top-rope and auto-belays and spending more time on the aspects the group enjoys.
Wrap Up
Session done. Grab a drink and snack from the cafe for a refuel, chat about the best bits and watch other climbers from the comfort of your seat.
