Progression Climbing Reviews

Loved free climbing. Such a great community of helpful and kind people.

Visited for the first time today, mainly for the kilter board. Found the setting of actual routes to be accurate and very flowy. Also a much more welcoming environment than TRC and at a far better bargain, might I add! Will definitely be returning :)

Best indoor climbing option in the triangle. Great routes, extremely reasonable prices, and lovely people to be around. An awesome place to start climbing for the first time or to push yourself into more advanced levels. Plus, no ropes or harnesses makes for more climbing time, and, if you re in a crunch, then quicker workouts! Highly recommend.

My girlfriend and I started climbing a bit over two months ago, and we love it! Progression is the only gym we have experience with, but it's been very positive. The people are very friendly and supportive, and the routes are fun. The gym is fairly small, and it's only bouldering, but so far there have been enough routes to keep my gf and I interested and give us some variety at two visits per week. Routes are usually up for a few weeks before getting rotated out, and they usually replace a different section of wall each week.

While the gym is relatively small and is bouldering only, don't let that dissuade you from visiting. The staff is friendly, the price feels fair, and the routes are challenging no matter your skill level.

I'd originally intended to come a couple times a month, but the place sucked me in; I've been a member for a couple of months now and it's been an absolute blast.

I have been climbing for just under two months now and I absolutely love it. My friends dragged me to progression but I was hooked immediately. The gym environment is so incredibly supportive, even when I was struggling with the easier climbs in the gym, experienced climbers were offering advice and shouting encouragement. I am a babysitter and I started bringing in the two five year old boys I watch to come climb with me. The staff is always friendly and helpful with them and with me. I can't stress enough how amazing progression is!

I ve been climbing at Progression for almost 4 months now. Before then I had never climbed before and ordered Progression s Groupon that offered a free class + 2 weeks unlimited climbing (highly recommend). Linda was the best instructor! She was so patient and kind, taught us how to stay safe on the wall, and showed us fundamental techniques that built up my confidence over the two weeks. When I went, I d see Linda there and she climbed certain routes I was struggling, which really helped me figure out how to do it myself. I remained friends with the women I climbed with during our instructional lesson and decided to go for the membership essentially because of Linda, friends I d met, and the close-knit community Progression promotes.

The only staff member that seemed to be in the building was curt and appeared annoyed that she actually had to do her job. It was my first time there and there was no tour of the facility or explanation on how to boulder. I didn't mind given I climb frequently, but I can see it being intimidating and a problem for new climbers. Space is small with a few walls and it fills up pretty quickly. Routes were ok but not much variation.
