Ages 5–18About this program
Shoreline community Y with a 25-foot indoor rock climbing tower with six routes, using a mix of auto-belays and manual rope belays. Staff-led youth, tween and family climbing classes and clinics teach safety, equipment, technique and knot-tying, and open climb is available to members ages 5 and up; all gear and helmets are provided.
Members describe a large, clean 52,000 sq ft facility with a lap pool, gymnasium, climbing wall and rarely-crowded cardio equipment, and single out individual instructors as engaging and encouraging.
The most common complaints are cost - classes and lessons are charged on top of an already pricey membership - plus limited youth swim times and a two-week notice requirement to cancel or pause membership.
