Indoor Rock Climbing Skill Building for Spinal Cord Injury (December Series) 6:15pm-7:00pm

This program is for people with spinal cord injuries only!

This series is designed for beginner rock climbers with spinal cord injuries who want to progress their skills over the course of a few weeks. We will meet at Central Rock Gym, Stoneham location, where participants will be paired 1-on-1 with a belayer to assist them in climbing. We will work with you on your individual goals; whether that's to try rock climbing for the first time, get more comfortable with an adaptive system, improve your technique and endurance, or something else. 

Participants will commit to attending one session each week for three weeks. Please see the program schedule below.
