‼️All mothers climb for FREE | MAY 10 - 13‼️
We’re celebrating Mother’s Day weekend by letting Mothers in for a FREE day pass! Rentals included.
In case you haven’t seen them around the gym, Emmi and Talya, a mother/daughter duo, can always be found on the Lead Wall and Boulders!
🤩Here’s their story:
“Nervous to go alone for the first time, I reached out to all my friends and family. None were willing to go scale a wall with me, except my mom. She’s always willing to try anything with me.”
-Emmi
“How can I say no to my daughter, despite my ever-present and quite palpable fear of falling? The answer is, I can’t (well, sometimes I can).”
-Talya
“It’s been two years since we started our climbing adventure, and have gone from bouldering to lead. We’ve improved our skills and found a great way to spend time together. “
“Climb on, climb hard, climb with your mom…”
