Prerequisites:
An insatiable desire to climb on anything and everything!
Requirements:
- Parents are required to interact with their climber(s) during the class. Our instructor will show you how best to support your climber(s).
- Parents MUST be auto-belay certified by the 2nd class! Certifications on the auto-belays are free and can be obtained via a quick demonstration with our front desk staff. The certifications don’t need to be scheduled and can be completed after your climber’s first session. Please check in with our staff to get the auto-belay certification completed.
- Parents MUST be belay certified by the 3rd class! The cost of the Learn-to-Belay course is included in the Chipmunks registration cost. Parents can sign up for the Learn-to-Belay class here!
- In order to receive the discounted booking cost, please reserve a spot as a “ÜG Member” and answer one of the booking questions with: “Yes, my child is currently enrolled in a Chipmunks class”. If you skip this question, you may be charged the full cost of the class ($36) when you check-in for the class.
Pricing:
- $90/4wk course for members, $120/4wk course for non-members
What to expect:
- Small class sizes (a 3:1 child to instructor ratio is maintained).
- Check in at the front desk. This is also where your Chipmunk will receive climbing shoes, if they choose. Climbing shoes are not required and not all kids want to wear them, so be prepared with closed toed athletic shoes.
- You will be met by your instructor at the front desk and walked back to the Alcove all together.
- Classes are 45 minutes long.
- There may or may not be auto-belays involved. Some classes may be spent entirely on the boulder, traverse walls, or the ground.
- Your Chipmunk will gain spatial awareness, motor control, and sensory experiences.
- Parents are required to interact with their climber(s) during the class. Our instructor will show you how best to support your climber(s).
