I took an intro to climbing class with Holly. As an adult beginner, the class helped me feel more secure and comfortable with top rope and bouldering. Highly recommend!

I took the 4 week course with Holly. Excellent instructor, great presence, she made learning fun and safe. Facility has plenty of wall routes and bouldering area. I’ll sign up for the membership.

The climbs at this gym are great. Unfortunately, my group wasn't able to enjoy the awesome climbs due to the staff constantly harassing us and making us run back and forth to the front desk to straighten out the files they lost. If you get belay certified at this gym. They will likely make you take your tests again and again due to their inability to keep proper records. We come to this gym once or twice a year, instead of going to Climb So Ill, as a treat. My advice is to avoid this gym and go to the best gym in STL, Climb SO Ill Steel Shop were the staff tells you all that you need to know when you walk in the door and then they LET YOU CLIMB!

Stephen and Trey are awesome!!!! They are nice and helpful. I would give a 5 star if it wasnt for the girl that looked for reasons to point out dumb shit like when I was looking at the boulder wall to what I wanted to climb, no one around... but she said I needed to step back off the mat when im not climbing smh. Other than that, ill be back guys. Thanks for giving Zack and I pointers Trey. We love you and Stephen. Yall are really really cool!
