KINETIC
Bouldering
Experience our technical slab and steep overhangs designed for every level of climber. Our route-setting team utilizes diverse holds from ergonomic jugs to micro-crimps and dual-texture volumes to challenge your technical proficiency. We ensure a fresh climbing experience by resetting three distinct sectors every single Friday morning.
Our circuit-style grading system covers a broad spectrum from V0 (Beginner) to V12+ (Elite). This allows for progressive development, ensuring you always have a clear goal for your next session. Each route is carefully color-coded with industrial-grade tape for easy navigation during peak hours.
Classes
Our structured coaching program is built to refine your movement. Technique 1.0 focuses on the fundamentals of footwork precision and efficient body positioning to save energy on the wall. You will learn how to shift your centre of gravity to make difficult moves feel effortless.
For more seasoned climbers, our Advanced Pro workshops delve into high-level dynamic movement and coordination. These sessions cover deadpoints, dynos, and complex sequence reading required for upper-tier boulders. Each class is led by experienced coaches dedicated to your specific progression goals.
- Intro Session $40 AUD
- Technique 1.0 $35 AUD
- Advanced Pro $50 AUD
Youth Programs
Our Kids Classes (7-12) are designed around a play-based vertical movement philosophy. We believe that physical confidence is best built through exploration and problem-solving in a safe environment. Children learn to navigate height and balance while having fun with their peers.
The Youth Squad provides a more intensive training pathway for young climbers looking to compete or reach higher grades. Our coaches focus on developing functional strength and technical habits that will serve them for a lifetime. We emphasize teamwork and sportsmanship in every session.
Limited Spots Available
Training Room
Break through your performance plateaus in our dedicated training zone. Our Kilter Board and MoonBoard systems offer thousands of community-set problems with LED guidance to target specific weaknesses. These interactive boards are essential for developing the contact strength and body tension needed for elite grades.
Beyond the boards, we provide campus rungs for explosive power and a dedicated mobility zone for recovery. The weights area includes everything needed for supplemental strength work to prevent injury and balance your physique. It is a no-nonsense space for those serious about their vertical progress.

BETA GUIDE (FAQ)
How do your climbing grades work?
We use the 'V' grading system, ranging from V0 for absolute beginners to V12 and beyond for elite athletes. Each grade bracket is color-coded with tape so you can easily identify routes suited to your current ability level across all sectors.
Do I need to book a session in advance?
Casual climbing does not require a booking; you can simply walk in and purchase a pass at any time during our opening hours. However, all coaching classes, youth programs, and workshops must be booked in advance via our website to secure your spot.
What gear do I need to bring?
If you have your own climbing shoes and chalk bag, feel free to bring them along. For those without gear, we offer premium Scarpa shoe rentals and have community chalk buckets available throughout the gym at no extra cost to our visitors.
Is there an age limit for climbing?
Climbing is open to all ages, however, children under the age of 14 must be supervised by an adult at all times unless they are participating in a structured youth program. Our dedicated youth classes are specifically designed for the 7-12 age range.
How often do you change the routes?
We pride ourselves on having fresh challenges constantly. Our dedicated route-setting team resets three different sectors every Friday morning, meaning there is always something new to project every weekend when you visit the gym.

Before hitting the walls, ensure you have signed our digital waiver online or at the entry kiosk. Present your ID to our front desk staff to receive your access wristband. Once checked in, you can stash your personal gear in our secure digital lockers located near the training zone.

Don't have your own climbing kit? Our gear shop provides premium Scarpa shoe hire in all sizes for a small daily fee. We also offer liquid chalk for purchase, though community chalk buckets are provided throughout the facility for your convenience. Please ensure your shoes are fitted correctly for maximum performance.
03. Send It
Navigate the gym using the color-coded tape system to find a route that matches your grade goal. Start with both hands on the designated start hold and follow the specific tape color to the top. To complete the send, match both hands on the final hold for a full three seconds. Respect the fall zones at all times.
