Reportedly a sanitarium, this Movement claims to bring optimum health and vitality to its patrons--but I assure you that it's a facade, and their ambitions are far more nefarious than one would ever dream. I have damning proof that what I infiltrated on that fateful eve was in fact a mysteriously hedonistic assassins' training camp. Furthermore, I deduced that they specialize in scaling fortress and castle walls, for there is no conceivable reason to put so much effort into ascending those man-made, color-coded structures. I regret not having these assassins on my flank in the Battle of Lodi in 1796, we could've used their expertise on those ghastly walls. Though I question their fortitude in the face of adversity, because their main adversary is seemingly banal intangibles. Yes, I heard from their very mouths that they are after no king, army, or bounty, but rather the "work week" and "stress." I tried to assure them that these targets are far too elusive for any man of this earth to kill or capture. But alas, they persist, undetered by my warnings. Amusement aside, beware of these Movement assassins. Their battle cry is "everyone is welcome," consequently such an inclusive alliance is sure to enlist countless volunteers, and I fear that their numbers will soon swell to surpass even the army of Tsar Alexander. Their dress code evades reason and uniformity. Their ensambles remind me of the those ferocious Mamluks who we fought in the Battle of the Pyramids. And they partake in the most peculiar pre-mating ritual which they refer to as "yoga." They bend and move about in sacriligous gestures wearing only their undergarments. Disturbing as it is, it's working as they openly speak of their premarital sexual exploits openly. They must be stopped, for I overheard that they'll soon be pillaging some territory colloquially known as "Red Rocks." God save us, they are sweaty, persistent little creatures with an endless array of hydrating beverages to fuel their ravenous endeavors. They do have weaknesses though; their sentries show little concern for carriage parking, they have no calvary or artillery, and best of all, they get deeply offended by unsolicited instructions regarding where to put one's hands and feet upon ascending the man-made structures. read more

Little small, but otherwise I mean it's basically a perfect gym. Probably better for ropes but I mean if you're not wanting to drive too far it's good. read more

fabulous bouldering gym in the heart of rino! Love coming for an afternoon lunch time workout class or to meet friends to Boulder! read more

The wide array of reviews for this gym are fascinating. "Poor sanitation" is a common theme, but I didn't personally have that experience. I found parking right in front of the building (after making several wrong turns to try finding the place) and easily scanned my Movement pass, checked out the merch, chatted briefly with the cool front desk staff, and went to find my friends. I spent 30 minutes here because I didn't have more time than that. I knew how crowded the Baker location got from friends' Instagram stories, and it was still quite insane at 4pm on a weekday. I'm closer to RiNo but wanted to come here at least once. I'd probably only visit in the mornings when it's less busy. Routes were fun and appropriately challenging. Grateful I could borrow a harness from the front desk. Decent experience overall! read more

This is a great gym, pretty large top rope area and a decent (difficult) bouldering area, grades here were pretty hard but fun. Their workout area is upstairs, nice open area to watch climbers do their thing. Day pass price is fair, and you get a quality experience. Highly recommend coming here. read more

Pretty high walls and lots of shirtless people. Staff were friendly. Very packed. The facility is very clean and bouldering doesn't have a range like the other Movement. I think this one is more beginning friendly in having a little bit of something for everyone. They have a fitness room, cardio room, spinning room, and yoga room on the 2nd floor. read more

A great example of why big corporations don't work. After buying up most of the climbing gyms around the country, Movement has become more expensive and less appealing. It's impossible to get a hold of someone to manage your membership as they took away that power from their front desk employees, now it takes WEEKS for them to get back to you about anything. The facilities are way dirtier than they were before they went corporate, the bathrooms' trash is always overflowing, gym floor is very dirty and their vents are gross. You can no longer get $2 blocks of chalk, obviously you have to spend a minimum of $15 for a small bag. They took away the climbing rating system (1-5 star rating) and now have to download their app to look at this..??? Their employees are always great and I hope they are getting compensated for their work. Very crowded all the time. read more

Some random guy observing my friend and I discussing/ practicing lead belaying (with a top rope for backup) decided that it was his business to go tell his girlfriend at the front desk to not give us the chance to take the belay test. because he thought we weren't ready yet. and instead of doing the belay test for us like they should do for everyone that asks to take it, the front desk made up a stupid excuse for why they can't test us. based off this random boyfriends judgment. it is not this random boyfriends business to make that decision for us. and not fair or professional for the front desk to deny us of that service (that we pay $100 a month for). they should give us the belay test like they would anyone else and if we aren't ready, then fail us. but do not deny us the experience or opportunity to even take the belay test because your boyfriend (who doesn't even work here) made a judgement based off observation. and do not make up a stupid excuse for your laziness. this gym is way over priced to be giving this kind of service. and this encounter was extremely discouraging as young women trying to take the next step in an activity we have grown to love. I've never written a bad review in my life but this unfair treatment has really discouraged me. I just want the people working the front desk that day to stop and consider how unfair this encounter was. and hopefully they will start to do what they can to make this climbing community encouraging for other women and beginners. read more

I have been climbing for over two years and spent most of that lead climbing outdoors several times a week. But, during the winter months, it's pleasant to have a place to keep your fingers strong and helpful if that place is nearby. My male climbing buddy and I came here to do some lead climbing a number of months ago and I'm literally still scarred from the lead belay test experience. I've taken several belay tests before and belay A LOT *in the real world*.... but, from the moment I walked up this dude's attitude was on another planet. He was so extreme and pretentious, grilling me about the most minute details because he could see I was taken aback. Here's a sample: Him: "What is a Z Clip" Me: "It's when you hit the next bolt with rope from below your current bolt" Him: "Hmm......." Me:..........that's it? Him: "well what is the danger of z clipping?" Me: "it creates dramatic rope drag, you probably won't be able to climb much farther, and also you're not actually clipped into the highest clip. Him: "Hmm......." Me:.......... Him: "What part of your body would hit the rock first if you fell on a Z clip?" Me:.............. well I guess it depends on the angle of the rock you're climbing and the move you're pulling. Him:........... hmm.......... what *specific* part of your body would hit the rock first? Me: ok fine ........ idk, probably your legs? Him: *scribbles furiously* It was absurd!!! It took us well over 20 minutes to go through the simple Q&A on his clipboard which I somehow passed. When I walked back over, my friend was up. You may be unsurprised to hear it took him FIVE minutes and 0 insane follow up questions to pass. A head's up that you'll also be asked to climb a lengthy 5.9 at an incline on lead and to take an unannounced fall to pass this test. That is, if you can stomach the freaking attitude of the front desk staff and belay testers. Look around at the other reviews for all the other complaints I might list (crowding, lack of creativity in setting, safety concerns on the floor) and know that anyone who has ever purchased a membership here has Stockhold Syndrome (self included). read more

I don't get what all the bad reviews are for. Sure, there are often a lot of people and it isn't as cozy / hip as some gyms. Every time I've gone, I've had excellent customer service. I've been to many gyms around the country and this is right in there. It is convenient enough to my home, staff is friendly enough, they change routes frequently enough. I suggest that, if you receive that poor customer service I read about, you bring it to the manager's attention. That is the best way to foster improvement. read more

Look, I love climbing at this gym but my review will stay at 1 star until movement starts responding about this issue and there can be some sort of remedy. If you're reading this and agree please join me. People should know what's going on here. When I signed up for membership again a month ago, after taking time off for an injury...I wasn't aware that they would raise their prices the next month... or that this is a trend they play out about every 6 months. Apparently because they are expanding (in my opinion too fast) and are adding another gym in Centennial. They are letting the existing gyms deteriorate, neglecting to even change light bulbs and decreasing pay for route setters so that's going down hill too. They aren't paying their staff more and they even let go of staff for fitness and yoga classes in Chicago to pay for a gym in CO that those clients can't even visit. Oh yeah and the new gym is super close to 2-3 existing movement gyms?! This is starting to look like a predatory monopoly! Absolutely not ok. Further complaints I have are that the lockers and towel dispensers are mostly broken. I was not aware that this was the kind of behavior my membership fees would be supporting and I'm not happy. A lot of people aren't happy. Do better movement... rn you get a BIG for putting profit over people... not only regarding your clientele but your staff too. Shame... read more

Awesome staff. Always friendly and helpful. Big top rope and lead rope areas. Wide variety of routes, though more are on the harder side. Some sanitation practices could be better. This place gets BUSY after work! read more

700th review! I thought I'd review the climbing gym I've been a member at since they opened on 12/13/14. The employees here are really nice and helpful. The route setting is good. And they have challenging workout classes of varying length. Good equipment and they are constantly improving the gym. What I love most is the gym daycare. It's reasonably priced at $5/hour and they will feed your child, change diapers, snuggle your infant for 2 hours straight, whatever the kids need. The child care employees are very experienced and helpful. My daughter's hand print is on the wall from 2 years ago - the day care really develops a community. I've been climbing since 2002 but my climb time really dropped off after I had a kid. This gym helps me keep a toe in the water, so to speak, until I feel my child is old enough to drag out to a crag without it being an utter nightmare. It is crowded, as others have said, but it is a great gym so there you go. The pricing for day passes and memberships is on par with other gyms in the area from what I've seen. The demand in Colorado for climbing gyms is huge! read more

This gym has gone dramatically downhill since the merger with Earth Treks. They keep raising rates while putting up signs about how everyone belongs there and yet the staff is standoffish and rude, the childcare is being phased out, the facilities are filthy, and they have about 5 lead ropes at any given time. They cancel things due to "staffing shortages" which really means they aren't paying a living wage. Good luck going at peak hours when the parking lot is full and the team kids are walking under people bouldering while their coaches stare at their phones. read more

I've been climbing here for over a year . It pains me to give such a low review . This place is the worst example of what the climbing community is all about . Some amazing folks go here , but it's littered with some of the worst personalities I've ever encountered at any gym in the US. Finishing out my punch pass and will refuse to give this place a dime of my money. I'll be driving 20 minutes out of my way to earth treks where there is an actual community, knowledgeable staff , and clean facilities . You lost your luster Movement ! read more

Absolutely the worst experience of my climbing life. Been climbing twenty three years but not in the last three. Wanted to get a brief refresher before taking the test to belay. No way. Pay admission today and then pay us for a lesson next week. Not a word of help unless you buy a lesson. Not a friendly atmosphere. Arrogant customer service reps. Stay away. And this is from a Denver native. read more

Good if you use the gym for only climbing. I will spend more time looking for a parking spot and waiting for one of their 5 treadmills that are always taken, than I actually do working out read more

AWESOME STAFF! I visited from out of town and loved how welcoming and accommodating they were to me! I had so much on their world cup style setting bouldering wall. I was very impressed with the training center of their facility in the upstairs area. I hope I can revisit this gym again soon! read more

So far so good. Nice that they offer more than just climbing eliminating the need for multiple gym memberships. The traditional gym facilities are adequate for most workouts but there's not an overabundance of equipment so timing is essential if you don't want to wait on racks, weights or machines. The routes are well set but occasionaly get a bit greasy with heavy use. The nature of the beast. Again, timing is important to avoid both the after work and the after school crowd. read more

Movement Baker - Rock Climbing Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Good facility with challenging routes, but if you aren't an experienced climber, the staff kinda treats you like crap. I really enjoy climbing, but I don't get to do it as often as I'd like. My friend and I made the best of the whole experience, but I left not wanting to go back and definitely willing to pay more to go to another climbing facility with helpful and kinder staff. Every other climbing facility I've ever been to has given a simple refresher to the climbing commands and basic safety, so I was very surprised at the "figure it out yourself/ just google it" attitude of Movement. Recommendations: If you aren't willing to answer basic climbing questions, then post safety procedures and climbing basics in an accessible location. You could then direct people who are new to climbing or who are less experienced to this area to learn or refresh their knowledge, climb with safety and pass the belay test with ease. read more

Good gym for climbing but poor sanitation practices. I come here to workout and even in a non-pandemic world, it's sanitation practices are less than desirable. No wet wipes. Paper towel rolls always out. Spray bottles are nearly always empty and so far and few between that you need to cross the gym to find one. I've watched employees do their rounds and not bother to refill anything. Clear differences between Earthtreks, it's now parent company, and Baker. Though, RiNo does much better than this location. read more

Don't have a ton of experience climbing but not a complete rookie as well. Was my first time to Movement and will never go back. Staff was incredibly rude and not welcoming. Asked for a quick refresh on verbiage and whatnot with belaying. Was told that they can't teach or even give any instruction. You're a climbing gym, are you serious?! Rented a harness and was a whole process to get the $4 refunded because the harness was not used. Save yourself time,and money, and have a better experience elsewhere read more

This gym is amazing. Membership gets you access to all their gym locations. This one, one in Boulder, and one being built in Rino. This gym has yoga, fitness, climbing, and more classes. At over 20k+ SQ feet, it has what you need! Bouldering, climbing, fitness, training, stretching, showers, lockers, lobby, you are set! Even food and chalk are sold here. read more

I really feel like 2 stars is the perfect rating for Movement Denver. One star routes are never worth repeating outdoors. And you'd hop on a five star route everyday you see it empty it at the crag, right? But Movement Denver - with their undeniably sh¡tty customer service, frequent condescensions, and regrettably unsavory contract policies - is just hardly worth the second star. But they do have a thing or two going for them. Thanks to the location, we can all look past the crowds, mediocre locker rooms, lame crack wall, sub-adequate layout, and two-decades-behind-the-times business model. So yeah, I'll climb there a little longer, because it's bikeable and the "other" gyms aren't. But as soon as denver opens another gym - and soon there will be ___ more - I will enthusiastically take my $$$ elsewhere. Sorry Movement. You have had a great chance to win loyal members, but too bad the benjamins were more important than a quality product! read more

Worst climbing gym in Denver. They have make an amusement park out of climbing, with over crowded routes and an exorbitant price this place makes me very sad. A climbing gym is not supposed to be a money grab. It should be a place to get strong. I spend more time waiting than climbing. That is way after a year of being a member I have quit today, not paused bit quit. Other reasons for quiting. Poor parking. They wouldn't work with me when I was a day late to pause my membership. Too too too many people. Didn't feel like home. read more

I've had a membership for almost a year now and really want to love this place, but to echo the complaints of most of the reviews, Movement gets super crowded after 4:30pm. Every top rope route will be occupied and the bouldering area gets slammed. Parking is a nightmare as well. If you can climb anytime before that, I would highly encourage you do so. The weights area though is pretty busy in the morning. Pros: -Great amount of wall space and routes -Bouldering area is respectable -I've seen staff doing general cleaning and wipe downs of equipment and ledges on a pretty regular basis -Decent workout area with free weights and treadmills -Dumbells up to 110lbs, if you can handle that -Fitness classes are great and included with the membership -They reset sections of routes every day Cons: -As stated, the crowd/parking for climbing -While it is generally clean, there tends to be blood on the walls in several places -Fitness classes are often crowded -Gets pretty chilly when it is cold outside -Etiquette in the workout area could be better (weights in the wrong place, people working out barefoot, not everyone wipes their equipment at the end) - read more

I've been to many gyms, but this one seems to share the same frustrations many of us feel about Denver itself. Don't get me wrong, I was very excited about a new gym opening and I'm glad it exists. Much like Denver, this place is a bit over priced for what you actually get, and it can get insanely crowded after 5pm. There's a wait list for lead ropes, so just save yourself the hassle and bring your own. I have to imagine that Movement could set a reasonable capacity limit that would both preserve the experience of guests, but still allow them to turn a nice profit. After enough of these experiences I opted to pass on a pass. All of that said, if you're lucky enough to be able to come here in the middle of the day it's a completely different experience! read more

Movement is a high quality gym that I have always supported over other Front Range options. However, recently they gave me a reason to second guess them when choosing a gym- a total lack of customer service. I purchased a punch pass in February 2013 in Boulder. I was told that the pass would apply to Denver when the new gym opened. I went over to the Denver gym on opening day 12/13 to discover, to my surprise and to the surprise of a few Movement employees, that the punch pass from Boulder does not apply to Denver. I wrote Movement an email explaining my situation and received a prompt response from Chris. Chris was concerned about what had happened and wanted to fix it. I had 6 punches left in Boulder. I wanted them to apply at both gyms, like I was told they would when I purchased the pass. Chris said he could give me 5 punches in Denver or I could keep my 6 punches in Boulder because of the price difference. He said it was not possible for me to have punches that apply in both locations. I understand that there are different prices for day passes at both gyms. However, Movement totally failed to communicate to the community their policy on punch passes. In fact, I was mislead and told the wrong information when I purchased mine. Movement failed to fix a very easy problem that arose out of a somewhat unusual circumstance. I expect a lot more out of such a high quality establishment. I look forward to watching Movement mature as a business in the coming years. read more

Cons: Tons of wasted space, closes too early, fitness equipment (weight room) is joke, kind of pricey, parking is nuts, gets really busy, can't use fitness room if there is a class going on, Pros: Best setting in Denver, tall walls, routes are color coded (by hold color, no tape), music selections, location, bouldering cave rocks, friendly staff. read more

I am a big fan of Movement. Having only been to Rock'n and Jam'n and Thrillseekers previously, I love how big the walls are at Movement. It's super crowded as the gym just opened but if you show up later in the evening or mid-morning on the weekend, I've had success climbing the routes I want without too much of a wait. There are also yoga, spinning and fitness classes + a room with cardio/weight equipment. I've only taken one yoga class and, if you're trying to be a true yogi, this yoga class is not for you. But the instructor incorporated how the yoga helps her climbing and that was really helpful and inspiring. ALSO - if you have 2 other people at you work who want to sign up for a membership, y'all can sign up for the corporate rate of $58/month - a steal! read more

As soon as I walked in my jaw dropped. This is review is a few weeks late from the time I was there but I promised to leave a review for Crystal! finally home from trip and have service to leave a proper review. A series of unfortunate events led me to have to stay an unplanned night in Denver. My first thought was to head to a climbing gym to release some stress and figure out what I'm going to do. I called the gym and Crystal answered the phone and she was awesome!!!! She answered all my questions about the place and gave me information that I didn't know I needed as well and was all around extremely helpful. When I finally got there I was in awe because this was the biggest gym I have ever seen especially compared to the only two gyms I have at my hometown in Texas. Crystal gave me the whole tour of the place and was just as great in person as she was over the phone. I love the cave they have for their boulder section! I easily spent a few hours here.They had wifi so I could surf the web for hostels near by and I also took advantage of the showers and let me tell you I still to this day think about the awesome smelling soap they have in their showers!! So Good. Super clean too. Best thing is that all of this only cost me $10!!! although I had all my climbing gear with me so I didn't need to rent anything. I only interacted with Crystal so hopefully all of the staff is as great as her! I thank this place for making a sour day better! read more

Movement Baker - Rock Climbing Near Me - Denver, Colorado

See all

Extremely pretentious customer service. I would say rude, but I am not as easily offended as the guest service at Movement. Non-informative over the phone and in person. Looked like a wonderful facility, but we were told we would not have access to everything (after we paid). We were also told it would be difficult to pass the necessary tests to participate in all activities. read more

My favorite place to climb around Denver: - Closer to Denverites than Earth Treks - Some discounts (student, part of a company, first time guest $10) that offer some cost saving options - Cleaner than Thrillseekers and other older gyms (by the nature of being new) - Bigger and brighter than Rockn and Jamn (my previous favorite place) - Good variety for people who like to switch between bouldering, top roping, lead climbing, classes, traditional gym work out (although the gym equipment is really limited and the upstairs fitness rooms can be stuffy/hot) - Has a decent offering of fitness and yoga classes (although they are limited in later night and weekend classes) - First timers need to fill out a waiver via ipad (or at home) and belayers need to take a test (but you can practice in the gym with a friend before you take the test) It gets really crowded weekdays 6-9 pm and it closes earlyish (10 pm weekdays, 8 pm weekends), but overall it's a great option for a well rounded climbing gym that Denver was lacking before. Parking is often full, but they just opened up more after 5:30 at the auto place next door If you just like to boulder, Denver Bouldering Club is great and more affordable read more

Hard to write this review because there are a lot of things I do like about this gym. The safety situation has gotten out of hand though. So many people Climb on top of each other here. Overcrowded gym on weeknights with no ne monitoring for folks who climb right under lead climbers. I'm surprised there haven't been more serious injuries- no sense of safety or focus on safety by the staff. The gym would do well to advertise some basic climbing (gym) ethics and safety reminders, and to call people out for unsafe behavior. read more

This gym looks beautiful when you first walk in, but the actual experience of climbing here wasn't great. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is that it smells bad and it's really warm. Also, the bouldering area was CROWDED even at 9:15 PM. Because of the way it's set up, there are people everywhere, and you always feel like you're being watched while climbing. It's pretty intimidating. The bouldering routes are plentiful but all overlapping each other, so you frequently have to wait till someone else is off the wall before you begin. The part that really bummed me out was the route setting. The routes were way hard for their grades. I can usually climb a V1 comfortably and a V2 if I push myself, but I couldn't even do a V1 here. The movements weren't creative - it felt like the route setters just added small crimps and spaced them far apart and called it a day. If you're short like me, you're kind of out of luck. It's like climbing a ladder with missing rungs and no rungs anywhere else that you can use. I decided to just try the VB and V0 boulders which were fine, but boring and just straight up a wall. Earth Treks in Golden is further away but does a much better job with creativity at the lower levels. It was super crowded here but didn't really feel like a community; lots of guys with their shirts off and honestly just guys in general. It didn't feel like home. To top it off, the parking lot didn't feel very safe. Customer service was fine but I'll be heading out to EarthTreks in the future. read more

At long last, a quality purpose built climbing gym in Denver! Gone are the commutes to Thornton, Centennial or Golden. Or the excellent (but only Bouldering) days at Denver Bouldering Club. Denver climbers rejoice, the new movement is a climbing mecca within the city limits of Denver. The brand new gym has lots of natural light and is clear that it was built to highlight the awesome tall and overhung sport walls to your right when you walk in. Tons of wall real estate for leading, topping and a lengthy bouldering section with topout opportunity the entire length of the wall. Opening day (soft), free beer, some great food trucks and a vibrant representative of the Denver climbing scene were all to found here. As staff must have explained to the many climbers who came in, the gym is still waiting on permitting from the city to officially open their doors, however despite that the space was open for tours, and for some hands on, the walls appear to be set almost in their entirety with some excellent looking routes. On top of that they have set their fitness schedule starting Monday and said classes will begin the moment the city says OK. Besides the climbing areas the yoga studio was huge, with lots of natural light, and the fitness and cardio areas were separated into two spaces (really nice to not hear the repetitive treadmills while lifting or climbing. There is even a separate spin studio. There were also lounge areas with chairs and tables, as well as great views of all the various climbing areas. The membership rates are comparable to those of other newer gyms in the Denver metro area (such as Earth Treks or the Boulder Movement location) and they are CONSIDERABLY cheaper (almost half) the cost of other big gyms in other cities and they offer all their fitness classes and a great workout area in addition to the climbing. The day pass rate of $19 is to be expected a few bucks more than Rock N Jammin' but equal to Earth Treks. You can stop commuting to wherever else you've been going to climb and come to the new Movement. read more

Pros: tall walls, good bouldering area, lots of options for working out, good equipment, great location Cons: horrible music, unsanitary (they don't have etiquette in place when people get blood all over routes), way too crowded after 4:30, not enough 5.7-5.9 intermediate climbs, fitness classes in one of weight rooms makes timing challenging, always FREEZING (bad heating) read more

One of the cleanest and coolest climbing gyms I've had the chance to be a part of. I love the open atmosphere and the other climbers here are all super friendly and willing to help when you're struggling. It's a very good "beginners" gym and they offer a plethora of events throughout the month to engage a sense of community. Would absolutely recommend and also, would say do the monthly pass to save! read more

Last night I went to Movement Climbing + Fitness Denver and was pleasantly surprised! My roommate recently got a membership there and asked if I would tag along for a class (and lord knows I need to get into better shape so I obliged). If you go for your first time with a member on a buddy pass, it's completely free. All you have to do is pay for the cost of a harness and shoes. When I checked in, they said I had already been there before. I guess I had actually been to the Boulder location in January of 2016 with a work group and completely forgot about it. To be honest, I kind of threw a fit about never going there before, so they still let me in for free. Which is rad. Upon parking outside the building I was amazed by the sheer amount of people in the area. Nestled in between the 6th Avenue ramp and the light rail trains, this location is totally packed out with people! There wasn't a lot of parking and there were a lot of cars parked in strange spaces. I had to park pretty far and walk. So keep that in mind if you're coming in after work on a weekday. Also upon walking in, I was impressed by the sheer size of the place. The rock climbing walls are HUGE!! I haven't climbed much, but I was totally inspired by the people climbing all over these massive walls. Talk about an adrenaline rush! Upon checking in, you have to fill out a digital waiver form and then hit up the front desk. I grabbed my gear and headed to the locker room and was able to find a cubby for all of my stuff. Even though I didn't have a lock, my stuff stayed in there untouched, which was nice. From there we checked out the smaller bouldering walls to the left of the giant rock walls. There are different levels and paths you can take up the walls, and they are marked according to level. It's really crazy to see some of the situations people get themselves into when climbing these walls! The experts can hang off the wall while using a ton of upper arm strength, and they contort their bodies into the strangest shapes just to maneuver around the walls. It's really impressive to see. I also liked that if you wanted to, on one side of the bouldering walls you could climb over the top of the wall and then go down the stairs, which for whatever reason is much more gratifying to me than simply touching the top of the wall and then jumping down. We also took two fitness classes upstairs back to back. It was more or less similar to a circuit training class you would see at Orange Theory for example, just without the row machines or the treadmills. Or it could also be similar to a crossfit class, without the actual crossfit workouts. Honestly the motions were pretty creative. The teacher blasted music the whole time, and it was great to be able to work out with a group but still get a solid work out in. The teacher every once in a while also provided individual feedback on placement, which was nice. She was kind of crazy but really got the job done. They have all sorts of classes going on there every day of the week, from fitness to climbing to yoga, and that's why the monthly membership is totally worth it. You get a great value for the money at $75/month! A drop in is like $20-$25, so if you only go 3-4 times a month, its worth it. But the people who go here, go here like every day. That was another thing I noticed about this place - there is a deep sense of community here. People are very social and very open with one another. It's a great place to network or meet new friends if you're new to Denver. People are very like minded here, very earthy and organic. Overall, very Colorado. They have multiple locations now, but its so packed that they really need more. I went to the Baker location, which was slammed. They also have a RiNo location and a Boulder location. Overall, my impression was that this place is rad and a membership is totally worth it. The location is also between my house and work, so I can't really pass it up! Go here. :) read more

Great gym, I only had time for bouldering and their cave is legit. Had a great workout and really friendly staff, thanks for making my Denver experience quite exceptional! read more
