About the class

A three-morning school-holiday class with the head coach on climbing technique and how to climb better on the roped walls. Under-11s who aren't in the Kids Climbing Club need an adult to hold their rope.

As The Climbing Centre lists it. Times and prices change, so check with the wall before you book. Something wrong? Let us know.
