If you’re new to climbing or in the market for a refresher, one of the most enjoyable ways to get started is to book one of our private sessions. You get all the benefits of our tried and tested courses but in a quieter session where you can access more one to one time with our instructors.
Our courses are designed for absolute beginners to anybody needing a refresher. Our friendly team of instructors and coaches also have years of experience, teaching people of all abilities so you’re in safe hands!
Private Taster
What it is: Our Private Taster Sessions are a more personal, bespoke climbing session for those who would prefer their own private instructor. Private Tasters are a great choice for individuals, couples, families and small groups of friends.
When is it: Weekdays & weekends
Who’s it for: Individuals or groups aged 6+
Duration: 1 hour
Price: £45 – £75 per group*
*The price starts at £45 for up to two participants, with a maximum price of £75 for 6 participants.
Private Intro to Bouldering
What it is: This session is the same as our Intro to Bouldering but with your own private instructor. It’s a single session that covers all the basics of bouldering, as well as how to be safe on the wall and walking around the centre so you can climb independently.
This session does not teach you how to use our roped walls. See our ‘Intro to climbing’ if this is what you are looking for.
(Please note, under 18’s will need a parent/guardian present to counter sign their forms before and after the session.)
When is it: Weekdays & weekends
Who’s it for: Individuals aged 14+
Duration: 1 hour + optional climbing afterwards
Price: £45 – £75 per group*
*The price starts at £45 for up to two participants, with a maximum price of £75 for 6 participants.
Rope Refresher
What it is: Our Rope Refresher is for adults who haven’t top rope climbed for a while, feel their skills are a bit rusty and would therefore benefit from a refresher/assessment before tying in and climbing unsupervised.
During the session, the instructor will observe how you use the equipment and assess your belaying technique. Your instructor will offer reassurance (or corrective instruction and guidance) as required, continually assessing your safety and competence throughout.
When is it: Weekdays & weekends
Who’s it for: Individuals aged 16+
Duration: 1 hour
Price: £45 – £75 per group*
*The price starts at £45 for up to two participants, with a maximum price of £75 for 6 participants.
Family Taster
What it is: Much like our private taster, this session is the perfect way to experience the thrill of climbing but as a family. Our Private Taster Sessions are a more personal, bespoke climbing session for those who would prefer their own private instructor.
(Please note, under 18’s will need a parent/guardian present to counter sign their forms before and after the session.)

Make sure you wear clothes you’re comfortable to move around in and definitely bring layers if it’s cold outside – we’re in an unheated warehouse! No need to bring any equipment – you can hire everything you need at no extra cost for these private sessions.
If you’re looking for a pick-me-up, our café sells great coffee, a selection of teas and a range of tasty baked goods. You’re more than welcome to bring your own snacks, too.
