TCA runs a range of social sessions.

At their heart, our socials are about meeting other climbers and building connections within our friendly community. They're a relaxed, welcoming way to climb alongside other people, share routes and problems, and get to know the wider TCA community.

Some sessions are instructed, some aren't and a few are aimed at specific groups within the community.

For full details of what's on at each centre — including the type of climbing, dates, times, and who each session is for — visit theclimbingacademy.com/clubs.

Roped climbing adventures for growing confidence

Climbing is a brilliant way for kids to stay active, burn energy and build confidence – all while having loads of fun. In our Rockhoppers classes, children use ropes and harnesses to explore climbing walls in a supportive, instructor-led environment.

Each weekly session introduces key climbing skills through games, movement challenges and our in-house award scheme. There’s no need for prior experience – just a sense of adventure and a willingness to try.

Rockhoppers runs during school term time and can be block booked initially with single sessions released separately.
