Indoor Rock Climbing
Indoor Rock Climbing is one of the best total body workouts available – it is both a mind and body workout. It is a unique sport in that males and females are equally capable. A common misconception is that climbing requires an already strong upper body. This idea often discourages females from participating, but an effective rock climber is one who understands that much of climbing is related to technique, balance and leg strength, and sometimes, willpower.
Indoor Rock climbing walls push participants and makes them want to achieve more, and that’s a skill that’s useful not only on the climbing wall, but in every aspect of life!
Through the activity of Indoor Climbing and Abseiling, Tannum Fitness Centre endeavours to cater to varied interests, abilities and needs, and to provide the opportunity for participants to acquire and develop knowledge, movement skills and positive attitudes and behaviours that contribute to a healthy, active lifestyle. Centre staff can give basic instruction OR can assist an organisation’s staff in conducting the sessions. Sessions can be run over a single or several stages, depending on what the desired learning outcome is. Tannum Fitness rock climbing wall caters to people of all abilities, from beginners to advanced climbers. It features 10 stations, each of which feature 3–5 different coloured routes of varying degrees of difficulty. Climbing harnesses and shoes are available or climbers may use their equipment.
Currently using a top rope system, we are soon adding bouldering.
