TJClimbing's First Group Session!

On Friday, July 12th we hosted our first group climbing session at the Movement Gym in Crystal City. We were joined by Jefferson students of all grades, including both experienced climbers and beginners.

During the session, we introduced the fundamentals of bouldering. Climbers learned the importance of climbing safety through proper warm-up exercises and falling techniques. Starting at levels as low as V0, many students quickly got the hang of the sport, some almost completing a V5 on their first day.

After learning the basics, we added a fun twist by incorporating a few games. Climbers had to add or remove holds from their climb, sparking creativity and encouraging students to dissect their climbing route before they even started.

Of course, our climbing session would not be complete without a sweet treat. After a great day at the gym, we enjoyed chocolate chip and double-chocolate cookies.

Thank you all for joining us. We hope to have you with us again on August 17th!
