The Iona Prep Rock Climbers get together at least once a month for a fun workout. Climbing is done at the indoor gym, Go Vertical , in Stamford, Connecticut, although there is the possibility of an outdoor gym in the spring. The walls at Go Vertical are 40' high and include overhangs and a bouldering cave for upside down climbing.
Safety is a priority.
All of these people were trained in a special class by the staff of the climbing gym and then passed a test. Rock climbing does not require superhuman strength. Strength and flexibility help, but so do planning and balance. In addition, strong bonds of trust and responsibility form between climber and belayer. There are no cuts from the team, and competition is only with oneself.
