Get ready for a special training opportunity specifically intended to prepare athletes for National Championships this coming July. Training with our specialized coaches will help athletes polish up their skills for bouldering, sport climbing or speed climbing- OR a combination of all three disciplines!

Athletes have the opportunity to prepare for competition atmosphere through developing tactic strategies, climb on National-level routes and boulders, as well as working with coaches and other athletes to further refine their skills prior to showcasing it all in the National Championships.

All competitive athletes are welcomed to attend, regardless of whether they have qualified for Nationals this year. Sessions on Saturday and Sunday will each host up to 20 participants in each category (A/Jr or B/C/D). Each Speed Session will host a maximum of 8 participants. This is an opportunity you don’t want to miss out on, so sign up now! LINK IN BIO✨
