What climbers are saying
- MMatthew Jensen· 9 years ago
I am not much of a rock climber so take my thoughts with a grain of salt. I went here with my little one and had a great time. The prices were fair, and the experience was great. The staff was friendly and helpful. I also thought the facility had plenty to do. My little one had only been to a rock wall at a large gym. This had a lot more to do and lots of things that gradually challenged her. I liked to see her pushing and learning while having a lot of fun. The building is very large and has a fun design but it can be a little weird to find the entrance. It is marked but I thought it was a little tricky to find. I took a photo of it and included it in the review.

My son has been climbing with most of these coaches for years. When they opened the academy a few years back, we were ecstatic. Climbing has done wonders for his health and confidence. The entire staff here is incredible... So friendly and knowledgeable. Their primary focus is to build strong and confident kids through climbing... And they are executing on that. Full disclosure, my son loves this place so much, he is training to become a coach.!

The Midwest Climbing Academy is a great place for kids to develop their climbing skills and their life skills. The coaches care deeply about teaching kids to climb and helping them grow stronger physically and mentally. The Academy is all about developing kids -- they don't let adults climb there and they don't do birthday parties. My son has become a much, much better climber over the last year by being on the Academy team and getting the personal attention of all of the coaches. He chooses to climb with the Academy because he sees the benefit in his climbing and respects the coaches. All the kids really seem to have fun; they get tired but they have fun.

I was on the team here for about three years, and over those three years my climbing ability skyrocketed. My coaches were all fantastic and took a genuine interest in my life. In addition to building my climbing skill, being on team here also helped me overcome social anxiety. I really struggled with it as a kid and this helped me become more comfortable around people because everyone was so friendly here.
