The climbing wall: where kids become rock stars

FitRec’s 30-foot tall Barreca Climbing Wall is more than just a vertical playground. It’s an exciting place for children to build strength, endurance, balance, and flexibility in a controlled environment. Rock climbing is a great developmental sport for kids, because it challenges mind as well as body. And, as most parents know, many kids are natural born climbers.

Classes are geared for children from 4 to 17, from first-timers to seasoned climbers. You might start with private lessons, then enroll your child in a group class for the added fun of social climbing. Or you can share the learning experience together in parent-child climbing lessons.
