Youth Programs

Every week during school terms we run our Youth Program that includes several classes to suit all ages and abilities. We keep class sizes small with kids coached by a member of our highly experienced coaching team. Our classes enable kids to improve both their individual physical and mental skills and their team building and communication skills in a supportive and challenging environment. Our Youth Program also has strong ties to Sport Climbing ACT/NSW and opportunities are provided to those wishing to participate in competitions at the state, national and international level. The class timetable is below.


The Youth Program is popular and space is limited. Kids need to be signed up near the beginning of a term and those currently enrolled in the Program get first priority for class selection in the next term. Please send an email to info@mountainstrongcbr.com to learn more about availability and pricing and to join our Youth Program mailing list.

Your Canberra Indoor Climbing & Bouldering Community

At Mountain Strong we are passionate about the physical, mental and social benefits that climbing brings to kids of all ages. Climbing can teach children a lot about problem solving, communication, community building, patience, resilience and much more.

We encourage all families to let their kids try climbing by simply visiting the gym and climbing as a family or through our youth or school holiday program.
