Kids Classes at Bloc10 Bouldering
Bloc10 Bouldering offers climbing classes for children as young as three years old. Children aged seven and above can work towards a nationally recognised climbing qualification called NICAS. Our experienced instructors create a supportive environment where children can explore their limits and build confidence. NICAS classes are conveniently scheduled on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
Wild Climbers
NICAS Wild Climbers is the perfect climbing skills program for kids aged 3 to 6 years. Our fun and game-oriented approach ensures that climbers are introduced safely to the indoor climbing environment, while developing their awareness of climbing movements, improving confidence, and creating a grassroots pathway into additional climbing activities.
Our program is designed to be inclusive and accessible for all, meeting the 3 key learning areas of the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) and encouraging inclusivity for all participants, including climbers with additional needs.
​
Sessions are run on Sunday Morning 9am - 10am.

NICAS
Join our Saturday and Sunday morning coach-led climbing sessions designed for kids aged 7 to 16 years old. While your child learns all aspects of climbing, including footwork, static and dynamic movement, balance, flow, and technical skills, you can relax in our reception with a coffee or run errands.
Our pre-planned sessions teach climbing etiquette and safety. These classes are sessions for NIC Bouldering, a nationally recognised qualification that promotes good practice and provides pathways for young boulderers to progress into competition, coaching, outdoor climbing, or independent social climbing with friends and family.
Parent & Toddler
Looking for a fun and active environment for you and your little one? Join our parents and toddlers meetup!
Our casual and relaxed sessions allow children to play and socialize with other small future climbers, while parents can take things at their own pace and support their toddlers.
Sessions are available to book online, however we understand that sometimes this is not appropriate with toddlers and so walk-ins are also acceptable. Please note that first-time visitors will need to fill out a minors "acknowledgement of risk" form and watch a short safety video.
​
The session costs £5 and includes coffee & a muffin/cake.
​
These sessions are informal and loosely follows the below schedule
-
arrival anytime from 9.15am
-
socialising and play for the children until 10.45am

The class runs on Monday mornings every week.​

Group Bookings
We have a supervision policy that dictates that under 16s cannot climb without adult supervision. There is an exception whereby those who are aged 14+ can climb without adult supervision if they have prior experience climbing and can demonstrate good etiquette and climbing ability. Adults who are not climbing can supervise up to 2 under 16s at one time. Adults who are climbing can supervise 1 under 16 in the gym. Should you wish to bring a group into the gym, this can be done by pre-booking a lesson with us. We can provide lessons for up to 12 children at one time. To make a group booking send us an email and we will provide instructors for your group.
