What climbers say

Climbing District - Pont de Neuilly

What to expect in an adult discovery class

Our group classes provide a friendly environment where everyone can progress at their own pace, whether it’s a first introduction or an early step toward improvement.
  • Warm-up: preparatory exercises to activate the body, prevent injuries, and get comfortable with the verticality.

  • Safety basics: landing techniques on mats for bouldering or using auto-belay systems for rope climbing.

  • Technique discovery: first movement, positioning, and progression methods, tailored to the chosen discipline.

  • Cool-down: a few stretches to recover and release tension.

  • Discussion time: a moment to share your impressions and explore the different options to continue climbing at Climbing District.
