higher learning, no books required.

Rock climbing is all about learning through failure, exploring new paths, and building trust with your peers. School of Rock makes it easy to learn these critical life skills by teaching them through the exciting sport of climbing, and gives kids a safe space after school to have fun and be themselves.

Students will develop key motor functions and learn how to manage success and failure by climbing new routes and boulders developed by our coaches and route setters each week. Older students will also learn how to belay for top rope, which encourages clear communication and respect for the well-being of others.

My child is 10 years old. Which age group is best for them?
We allow 10 year-olds to register for either class to accommodate friendships between students who may be slightly different ages. Either class is appropriate for new climbers.

Can my child climb outside of their class time?
Your child’s School of Rock registration fee includes a membership to Joe Rockhead’s, active from their first day of class to their last. Rental gear (climbing shoes and harness) is included each time they visit. Please note that kids age 13 and younger must be supervised by an adult (age 18 or older) whenever they are climbing outside of class hours.
