    Decided to visit Movement with a friend of mine after looking at some climbing gyms in the area. TLDR, this is a solid climbing gym. Nice people and very clean. Plenty of boulder routes and a nice top rope area as well. Bouldering: All the boulder walls are fairly graded by the route setters and there are plenty of route to choose from. There is also small top out area as well, which is pretty cool. And, its all pretty spacious so while resting you don't feel cramped and in peoples way. Top Rope: Plenty of top rope routes that I saw, but didn't spend too much time there to comment. Gym: Very nice and spacious weighting area. Clean and people are very aware with re racking weights. Quality equipment as well for any type of fitness activity. *Front desk can validate your parking* Overall, a 5/5. Very solid climbing gym.

    Great gym and very kind community. My first time climbing and I loved it! The gym has a ton of boulder walls and tall walls for you to explore, as well as a gym and yoga area. I will definitely be back

    Me and my partner were in from the Bay Area and decided to check out this gym to compare to the gyms in our area, and we were thrilled we did. The lady at the front desk was super nice and helped us get settled in for first Friday and we then got to climbing. The routes were awesome and there were some holds that we haven't seen before at our local gyms and it was awesome to try everything. Also loved the bouldering area being its own thing away from the top rope. The members were really nice and welcoming and we really felt at home by the end of the session. If I lived here I would be a member in a heartbeat, both the top rope and bouldering areas were very large and you won't get bored easily.

    I've been a member for probably 8 years and the staff is amazing. Also the route setters do a fabulous job. Looking forward to the next 8 years climbing at movement in Crystal City
