Description

When you face a climbing wall, all outside influences wash away and leave your head clear and ready for the task at hand. Climbing a wall requires focus and concentration.

Climbing a wall teaches children great hand, feet, and eye coordination. They must look, plan, and then move their hands and feet to the chosen spot. This awareness can then be transferred to all other aspects of life and other sports. It is also a great way to reinforce the understanding of left and right!

Every route on the climbing wall is a puzzle that needs working out. Problem solving requires patience, planning, and analysis to successfully crack the code. Many new, beginner climbers, tend to approach each problem as they climb the route but as they progress, climbers learn to visualize the route they will take, what hand and foot will be placed where, and work out the roughest part of the climb (the crux) before they set out.
