Our Recreational & Competitive Track climbing teams have multiple practice options per week for children to both train to become stronger climbers & become part of the Gravity Vault climbing community. Under the careful eye of our USA Climbing certified coaches, kids will be given engaging drills structured to push & challenge them, making them become stronger climbers.

Our training schedule is built to be incredibly flexible. Families may pick however many practices a week they would receive training for, and allows you to switch which practices the climber attends within that week with no additional fees!

Our Recreational Track program has climbers focus on improving & getting stronger, but does not require participation in the USA Climbing circuit.
