Our Flashpoint Juniors kids club focuses on learning the key safety skills and the fundamental movement skills (Agility, Balance, Coordination) of climbing. The sessions are focused on having fun and all instruction is age appropriate, meaning the younger Flashpoint Juniors will learn through games and activities suitable for their age. This keeps kids engaged and interested in climbing on a long term basis and will provide them with a safe and fulfilling foundation to carry them through their climbing journey.

They will also be able to complete a large number of climbs as they build up their strength and confidence on our wide variety of boulders.

 

Flashpoint Juniors sessions are booked on a term block basis. Some terms will cost more than others depending on how many weeks are in a school term.
