Come find us next to the couches near the table tennis area! **What is Bouldering**? Bouldering is rock climbing without ropes or harnesses. The challenge is to climb short but tricky routes using balance, technique, and strength. It's a high-intensity exercise that strengthens many of the major muscles of the body, and in particular your core, back, shoulders, arms, hands, and grip. It can also help improve your sport climbing technique. Bouldering routes are set for beginners up to advanced climbers. Whether it's your first time, you have not climbed in ages, or you are a seasoned professional, a good time is guaranteed - we welcome everyone of all levels! **Cost**: * No meetup charge, only gym charges as below: * Gym entry is $23 (discounted entry!) * Shoe rental is $7 * See more pricing and membership information on their website: [https://syd.blochaus.com.au/pricing/](https://syd.blochaus.com.au/pricing/) **What to bring / wear:** Clothes comfortable for exercising Climbing shoes if you own a pair, otherwise you can rent at the gym **Schedule** 6PM - 6:10PM - Meet and Greet (At couches next to the table tennis area) 6:10PM - 8:10PM - Climbing 8:10PM - 8:20PM - Regroup at couches and leave for Pub 8:20PM Onwards - Eat / Drink at Vic on the Park **Disclaimer**: Your safety is your own responsibility while climbing.

We meet at the mats straight ahead after you enter. **What is Bouldering**? Bouldering is rock climbing without ropes or harnesses.

It's a high-intensity exercise that strengthens many of the major muscles of the body, and in particular your core, back, shoulders, arms, hands, and grip. It can also help improve your sport climbing technique. Bouldering routes are set for beginners up to advanced climbers.

We might go for coffee or food. It depends on what people want to do **Disclaimer**: Your safety is your own responsibility while climbing. Meetup hosts are not employees or representatives of the gym. **Sensory and other information:** Parking in front of the gym is limited. There is on-road parking in the streets around the gym. Climbing gyms are very open and inclusive spaces. They have LGBT+ evenings and low sensory times. Climbing is an sport that is very welcoming to beginners. If you are new to the sport, your meetup host can give you some tips on technique and gym etiquette. Saturday mornings at this gym are quiet. There are only a few people climbing and you can project routes without much interruption. The music is usually much quieter than other climbing gyms and more down-tempo. It's a low-intensity environment compared to other climbing gyms. If you are on the autistic spectrum or have sensory issues, this gym and meetup session may be more suitable than the meetup sessions at the larger busier gyms. The gym has heating and air conditioning. If you come in the summer and the air con is running, it is good to bring a light long-sleeve top if you are sitting around for longer periods of time between climbs. The lighting is industrial and bright. There is a small area at the back which has seating. This is good if you enter sensory overload as it is less brightly lit and quieter than the main gym area. There is a water fountain at the front desk. The gym sells snack bars, fruit, soft drinks and hot drinks. There are cubby holes for your clothing and bags in the warmup area and behind the front desk. Toilets are at the back left of the gym.
