What is Bouldering? Do I Need Experience to Try That?
Bouldering is solo climbing a lower section of wall up to about 14-16 feet. It is a more accessible style of climbing that does not require a harness, rope or partner but can also be more strenuous with a stronger focus on climbing skills and ability.
Bouldering involves increased inherent risks because YOU WILL FALL and all falls are ground falls that could result in serious injury. Our Intro to Bouldering & Movement class is a great way to get started with bouldering.

Do You Have Auto Belays?
We understand the appeal and convenience of auto belays but climbing is an inherently dangerous sport and due to a number of ongoing safety concerns related to auto belays, we do not have them in our gyms.
Instead we choose to focus on rope climbing with real life belay partners. We feel this is a better way to help mitigate the risks involved, reduce accidents and build community. Our gyms are full of friendly climbers willing to lend a catch when needed! Here are 6 tried and true ways to find a climbing partner at any Edgeworks location.
What is ProBelay?
This program is great for folks who are new to climbing or don’t have a climbing partner. It is an introductory level program designed to welcome new climbers into our facility. Providing the access and confidence needed to climb on our taller walls with the help and encouragement of one of our knowledgeable and friendly staff belayers.
