This was my first time coming here to rock climb and I had a wonderful time! There's so many different walls to climb, different levels of difficulty. My friends have been coming here for a while and have a monthly membership. They are very good! There is also a bouldering area, if you are feeling more adventurous. Since it was my first time, my friend got me a free pass. I just had to pay for the rock climbing gear, which was only $8. The staff was very nice and informative about the gear and equipment. I will definitely be coming back, and will most likely sign up for a monthly membership. This is such a great hobby to take on. I can't wait to get extremely skilled like my friends. read more

My boyfriend has been asking me to come with him for months. I finally joined him, and I had a great time. Everyone who works there is so helpful and nice. Even if it's your first time, you are made to feel welcome. There are ranging difficulty levels for everyone. I was able to make it to the top on an intermediate! This place has great vibes, great music, and I can't wait to go back. read more

Velocity Climbing Gym is one of my favorite climbing gyms in South Florida, and I recently got a membership. I try to come here a few times a week, and I absolutely love it. The walls are super high, so you get a good workout from each climb, and it makes you push yourself harder to reach the top. I also started bouldering again at this gym to focus on my strength training. They have some really good routes here. I highly recommend checking out this gym if you want to get your climb on. read more

Velocity Climbing - One section Wall climb - Rock Climbing Near Me - Miami, Florida

I used to rock climb years ago in Arkansas--it was a huge part of my life and my connection with nature. But after moving to Florida in 1998, I pretty much gave it up because, well... Florida is flat. I also assumed indoor climbing was just a glorified jungle gym for kids. Fast forward to today, when I took my family to Velocity Climbing, and WOW--I couldn't have been more wrong! This place is incredible. The instructors and staff are top-notch--attentive, knowledgeable, and super encouraging. They helped me ease back into a sport I once loved, and I felt completely supported every step of the way. Not only is Velocity a fantastic facility with a great variety of climbs, but climbing itself has incredible physical and mental benefits. I'm officially hooked again, and at 56, I can't wait to become a member and get back on the wall! Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned climber, this place is a must-visit. read more

Velocity Climbing - Rock Climbing Near Me - Miami, Florida

Beautiful new climbing gym that has opened in Miami I love that the walls are tall and the routes are challenging. There are two stories' worth of climbing available, from top rope to auto belay to bouldering The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I appreciate that they're committed to monitoring for safe climbing and keeping the facility clean - shoes or slippers are required on the mats (no bare feet!) Since this gym is so close to work, I definitely plan to commit to a more regular climbing routine! read more

Velocity Climbing - Rock Climbing Near Me - Miami, Florida

First time here and wow, what a nerve wracking but incredibly fun experience! As someone totally new to climbing, I was definitely intimidated at first, but the staff made it so easy to feel comfortable. Shoutout to Lucas, our instructor, he was amazing! Super patient, clear in his instructions, and really motivated us to push past our limits. The 60-foot walls are no joke, but with his guidance, it turned into one of the most rewarding challenges I've done!! If you're thinking of trying climbing for the first time, this is the spot. Ask for Lucas, you won't regret it! ‍ read more

Velocity Climbing - Rock Climbing Near Me - Miami, Florida

Great place, lots of parking, high amazing walls with lots of routes. All labeled, super friendly staff

I've been dreaming of a gym opening closer to where I am in downtown Miami, and Ray has answered my wishes with this beautiful, bright, central location right next to the 112 and the Earlington Heights Meteorail station. I will not miss those 2 hour rush-hour commutes to West Kendall and Broward. Presale membership prices are comparable to other gyms in the country, if a little more than other gyms in the South Florida area. But so far, worth it! First, parking: it's still opening week, but with their paved and gravel lots, I have not had issues finding a spot yet. There's also a parking attendant to help navigate the lots during peak hours. I hope they get some marking/bumpers in gravel areas to indicate where spots are, but it works for now. The gym butts up to some residential homes, so be careful not to park anywhere but the designated lots. Second, amenities: training area with cardio machines, showers (sort of, they're not available as of opening week), locking cubbies, a bottle filler fountain, and flexible seating around the gym. I'm sure I'm missing some things too, but the gym was designed by climbers so I definitely felt like everything I would need was considered. Third, climbing: I am biased, but the holds are all brand new and have sandpaper grip on them so I feel extra confident going for slopers. In fact, a lot of climbs seem easier than their grade because of how grippy the holds are still. The setters have done an amazing job with designing climbs for every climber, and utilizing the wall angles and volumes to create slab, dihedral, and overhanging climbs for every YDS grade. While there isn't any real rock, and Velocity lacks some features like roofs and chimneys, I am more than happy to be challenged by the massive number of overhanging routes available in the lead-only section. QuickDraws (with plastic coverings on the dogbones!) are on every wall, so if you want to lead a roped section, just tie the rope off to a sandbag stationed nearby. Bouldering areas look really nice (one was designed with the Innsbruck competition wall in mind), with extra firm crash pads beneath the two sections, but I haven't ventured onto those yet since the 60'+ walls are calling my name still. There are also several autobelay options in the upstairs area (which is also a great people watching platform). Fourth, staff: everyone at Velocity is as excited as us members to finally be open. The red-shirted staff have been so welcoming, and are happy to chat with everyone about the gym. There are some policies they have to enforce (shoes in the climbing area and closed-toeds in the training area), but they are friendly about it when they do. Since we're still in opening week, the setters have also been making their rounds and getting feedback from folks. All in all, I'm happy to call Velocity home. And yes, I will belay you - just ask! But for those new to the sport, they offer free belay classes for all members. read more

Velocity Climbing - Our 7-year-old daughter - Rock Climbing Near Me - Miami, Florida

This is the newest climbing gym in South Florida.... And let me tell you - it's the best one by a mile! Top rope, lead, autobelays, two floors of bouldering, Kilter board, free weights. I mean, this place is 11/10. The staff is nice and friendly, the climbing is excellent and the facility itself is gorgeous! read more

Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful new facility. Creative and diverse route setting. Great location for downtown Miami with a good amount of parking. Some constructive criticism/requests: Group and/or private classes (lead to start) More auto-belays Needing someone at the front desk to wrench on/off the auto-belay steel connector and hunt for ID card on return is annoying and often a bottleneck. Add a water fountain upstairs. read more

Great service. State of the art facility with access to various types of climbing. Always updating with new routes

Absolutely loved this experience. Went with a group as beginners and Leo led us through our training. He was so kind and patient while walking us through the process and how to progress through the climbs. Cannot recommend this place enough! Thank you Leo!!! We'll definitely be coming back. read more

By far the best climbing in Miami! I am from California and have traveled up and down the west coast climbing in many competitions. I'd say I'm picky with my route setting and prefer outdoors. That being said, there were many climbs in the gym that made me feel the sun against my back, and the genuine feel of crag. Until Central Rock Wynwood opens which is solely bouldering I will only be going here. read more
