Exclusively for Malden resident family youth in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. Every Sunday starting April 26, 2026.

In this indoor program, new climbers will have the opportunity to try the sport of climbing on our boulder walls and learn the fundamentals of the sport before testing their skills on real rock at Waitt's Mount just a mile down the road!

This is an indoor program that will run for 8 weeks every Sunday starting April 26. The final day of the class will be outdoors on Sunday, June 14 at Waitt's Mount with a rain date of Saturday, June 20.

On this final day of the class, we will set up top rope climbs on the rocky cliffs suitable to the participant's skill level and we will continue to provide instruction to ensure all participants have a good time. Families will also be welcome to watch the class, along with this fun event! The best part is this program is only $20 for participants!

This program was made possible in partnership with the Malden Recreation Department, The Great Malden Outdoors Initiative from First Seed Sown and the Massachusetts Office of Outdoor Recreation (MOOR) Grant! Big thanks to them for helping us make the sport accessbile to the Malden community and if you're interested in our other Youth Programs, summer programs, outdoor guiding, scout events, birthdays, membership, and everything climbing related, please learn more on our website, or contact our Gym Manager, Nick at GymManagerMAL@RockSpotClimbing.com or give us a call at (339) 210-5556.

Please note that this program is a more accessible option for families over our traditional after school and weekend youth programs that feature a much lower instructor to participant count, along with a more focused path or progression for young climbers looking to develop their climbing skills.
