Fitness Formula Old Town

Review

Intro

At the Fitness Formula Club’s Old Town location, climbers can learn to climb in a unique way—with six week, small-group format classes that offer a “ground to summit” philosophy that will help get you started on the right foot.

What Makes It Great

The climbing facility—dubbed THELEDGE—is open to both members and nonmembers of the club. Both rock climbing and bouldering classes are also available at various skill levels. The club's classes teach “clean holds, tested moves, fresh route setting ideas and a strict awareness of the requirements of all climbers regardless of their height.”

The club is also the only place that you’ll find an indoor slacklining program in the city.

Who is Going to Love It

Rock climbers and boulderers of all levels.
