Vivo for Healthier Generations — Climbing

We enrolled my son in the Vivo for Healthier Generations Climbing program in Calgary, and overall, it was a solid experience. The climbing walls were well-maintained, and he really enjoyed the challenge of scaling different routes. His instructor, Sarah, was enthusiastic and attentive, which helped him gain confidence in his climbing skills. The small group size allowed for personalized attention, which was a plus. However, we did experience some long lines during peak times, which frustrated the kids a bit. It would be great if they could manage this better. Despite that, my son made a few friends there and was excited after each session. I would recommend this program to other parents with active kids looking for a fun way to stay active, just be prepared for some waiting.

We enrolled our 9-year-old in the Vivo for Healthier Generations climbing program in Calgary, and overall, it has been a solid experience. The instructor, Mark, was enthusiastic and knowledgeable, which helped the kids feel at ease right away. My child learned the basics of climbing, and even managed to scale a bouldering wall by the end of the first session. The small group size allowed for personalized attention, which I really appreciated. The only downside was the long lines for the climbing walls; we had to wait a bit longer than expected during peak times. Despite that, I saw my child become more confident throughout the sessions. The program seems well-structured and engaging, making climbing fun while also promoting physical activity. I would recommend it, especially if your child is active and enjoys challenges.
