What’s included: These clubs are designed to solidify a climber’s foundation of basic and intermediate climbing technique and belaying through games, drills, and coaching. Through experiential and interactive learning, students will work to develop leadership skills, confidence, and teamwork by bonding with their teammates and challenging each other through climbing. All equipment (harness, shoes, Jul2 belay device) is provided by Übergrippen for club participants. Club members may bring their own personal equipment, if they wish.

Price:

    • $145/month members, $170/month non-members
    • At least one club t-shirt is required ($20)

Important Note: Children enrolled in programs at Übergrippen (including but not limited to Akademie, clubs, teams, camps, after school programs, etc) will be climbing with other children. Children will often be climbing partners with each other. This means YOUR CHILD WILL BE BELAYED BY OTHER CHILDREN ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM AND YOUR CHILD WILL BELAY OTHER CHILDREN. If you are not comfortable with this, please do not enroll your child in our group programs. We offer private guided climbing (fees apply) and can also instruct parents on these same belay skills (enroll in our adult Learn to Belay class) so that you can supervise your child’s climbing experience directly.
