Taught by Brooklyn Boulders
Brooklyn Boulders is a dynamic climbing community. We are an eclectic mix of lifestyles, born and bred from the unique and multifaceted forces of NYC. Our neighbors are our heros. They fuel our creative endeavors and enable us to pay it forward. BKB strives to maintain a strong connection with its community in various efforts such as inviting local graffiti artists to display their work to fundraising for local parks and even planning our children’s events around local school schedules. So whether you’re a seasoned 5.13 climber or just found yourself interested in trying something new, come to BKB and find what you’re looking for.
Learn the Ropes is Brooklyn Boulder's most popular class and a great beginner introduction for climbers looking to gain basic knowledge and skills. The class teaches each student how to fit a harness, tie basic knots, manage risk associated with climbing, and manage the ropes for another climber while they climb. You’ll leave with all the mandatory knowledge to be able to use the top ropes here at BKB, and an extra day pass with gear rental to come back for your belay test!
Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled start time. If you arrive more than 15 minutes late for your scheduled class, we can't guarantee admission.

Socks are recommended for first-timers, and lockers are available for your use. Please bring a lock as Brooklyn Boulders is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
