Top Rope Belay Lesson

Our Top Rope Belay Lesson teaches you everything you need to know for top roping at Climber's Rock. Students will learn to wear our rental harnesses properly, to tie a figure 8, figure 8 follow-through and stopper knots, and how to top rope belay with a Petzl Grigri.

We also explain how climbs are organized at Climber's Rock, how to use our auto-belays, and how to use our boulder walls.

New climbers are welcome to enjoy the walls and practice their new skills by purchasing a Day Pass or Membership when the lesson is complete. The lesson is also great for parents who prefer to keep their feet on the ground and only want to work the ropes for their kids (no day pass required).

Upon their next visit, students will need to pass our Top Rope Belay Test to be recognized as Belay Certified at Climber's Rock.

Minimum Age Requirement: 14 years old - Parents, please don't bring children to gym during your lesson time unless they are supervised by another adult who is not participating in lesson.
