If you’d like to learn proper and safety rock climbing technique, enroll in a climbing class. At Vertical Spirit, experienced instructors will introduce you to the sport and help you make progress so that you can reach your goals. You can progress much more quickly this way than you went at it alone!

You start climbing from the very first lesson! None of the lessons contain theory alone. Each features demonstrations and practical applications, which means plenty of climbing! For proper apprehension of climbing technique and safety precautions, we recommend taking classes for at least 3 months.
