FIRST TIME?

New to climbing.

Welcome. Climbing’s a brilliant sport, and getting started here is simple. A couple of quick steps and the wall’s yours – here’s everything you need.

If you have climbed at an indoor climbing gym before and this is just your first time coming to City Bloc, please simply complete our Adult Registration Form here and come on down for a climb.

TWO WAYS FOR NEWBIES.

1. Do your Online Climbing Induction

We require all new climbers to go through the induction process, to ensure you have a clear understanding of how indoor bouldering works and how to use the centre safely. You will watch our induction video and then be asked some questions. At the end you will complete our registration form and then you are ready to come on down for a climb.

2. Book a ‘Get to Grips’ Induction

Never climbed before? Learn the basics with an instructor first – you’ll progress faster and feel far more confident on the wall.
