At the moment, all our groups for 9- to 21-year-olds are full, including the Fundamentals courses. Registration for these groups will reopen in May for a September start.
We still have availability in our Klauterclub groups for children aged 6 to 9.
At GRIP, children can start bouldering from the age of 6. In a motivating and supportive environment, they discover what bouldering is, learn new skills, build confidence, and solve problems alongside new friends.
To join the weekday training sessions, children aged 9 to 16 first complete an 8-week introductory course called “FUNdamentals.” After this course, they can join the weekday group that fits their age and level.
The weekday groups are organized as follows:
Children under 9 join the Klauterclub directly, while participants aged 17 and older join the U21 weekday group. No Fundamentals needed for these groups.
FUNdamentals Program
Weekday Training
During the 8-week FUNdamentals course, kids from 9-16 learn all the basics of bouldering, including technique, safety, and what the sport involves. After completing the course, we decide together whether bouldering is the right fit, and the child can then join the weekday U12 or U16 training sessions.
The program runs for 8 weeks, with sessions taking place on Saturdays. The age groups are divided into two time slots:
The youth team is a group of our most talented kids between 9 and 17 years old. Kids can only join this team when invited by our trainers. They train three times a week under the supervision of our experienced trainers.
To join a training course, kids must acquire a youth membership for at least 3 months. They attend at least 1 lesson per week at a fixed day and time. The costs of this weekly lesson are covered by the membership. Aside from their training, they have unlimited access to our Boulderhal. If they want to boulder outside their training group, kids younger than 12 must be supervised by an adult at all times.
Kids may also opt for 2 classes a week (extra costs are €8 per 4 weeks) or 3 classes a week (extra costs are €16 per 4 weeks).
Kids who come in through Stichting Leergeld will get a discount. Moreover, there is a family discount when at least three family members have a monthly membership. Please get in touch for more information.
