I'm really psyched because my rock gym is starting a rock climbing team for adults. It meets on Sunday evenings from 6 to 8 and costs only $15 to get some of the best coaching in the area!

I've decided that i'm definately going to do this. they're going to train us, teach us technique, and all around give us trouble. I'm so excited! :hamster:

I'm already at the gym 3 x a week, and i work on skills. Lemme be honest, i was 'piggy backing' on the kid's team. they meet monday nites while i'm there, and i would watch their drills. then, when the kids moved onto the next topic, i would go and do those drills. LOL one of the coaches saw me and asked if i was piggy backing--i sheepishly said 'yes' and he laughed and told me to take some of the adult technique classes. But, they only offer those classes on tuesday nites when i work. So, no classes for me!

I think that he heard me complain aobut it enough to come up with the idea of a team, and realized that i could, in fact, do sunday evening. I'm so psyched.

and even cooler, they may have me lead the stretching section of the class in exchange for the training for free. :) weeeee! :) where's that jumping smiley again---oh here:

That's so cool! I've never even heard of a rock gym. I always thought rock-climbers always just climbed local mountains or something. I don't know what I thought exactly. But, that is really cool! Glad you are excited. Have fun! :hamster:
