Does your child climb all over the place and would like to try rock climbing? Has he already tried it, enjoys it and wants to practice it under the supervision of a specialized instructor?  

At Vertical Spirit, children of all ages can discover and practice rock climbing in a safe and friendly environment. Climbing is concerned with confidence, persistence and focus, overcoming physical and, in particular, mental barriers, developing a balanced physique and, last but not least, adventure, joy, friendship and peer interaction. Climbing is not merely a sport and, through it, your child can learn about all of these things!
