YOUTH PROGRAMS
Our youth climbing programs provide a range of opportunities for the aspiring climber with recreational and competitive options. Rock climbing is an exciting sport for anyone willing to push their limits in the vertical world. It allows for a competitive outlet in an individual sport format. Participants train toward achieving their personal best. However, climbing and training in a team environment brings the support, inspiration, and companionship provided by a group of individuals motivated by a common goal. Our programs promote safety, confidence, strength, and focus, both mentally and physically. Best of all, they can start building the foundation for a healthy lifestyle and climb for years to come.

Practices consist of plenty of climbing complemented by training exercises and skills classes. The program is organized into a C-Team, Junior Varsity (JV) and Varsity team.
To earn a spot on Team Mojo we host open tryouts twice per year: once in August and once in February. To be reminded when tryouts is happening you may contact the gym and fill out a client contact form.
