First time climbing, great experience. Clean and friendly gym.Joe was very nice and did an informative beginner orientation. Would definitely return... in the future.read more
This was our second time. Joe is amazing. We had such a good time. We will definitely go back. Take advantage of t-shirt Tuesdays!
My kids love climbing at parks and my youngest is not a quite 3 yet. I thought I would feel more comfortable with them wearing harnesses, which I... did. But they didn’t want to wear them. They loved the bouldering side. The front desk associate did a great job with orientation and everyone was very welcoming. We’ll definitely try it again when the boys get older!read more
Quality bouldering with a great atmosphere. All the essentials for training, and even a bunch of self belay climbs. Awesome place! I will return.
Such friendly staff, beautiful facility, plenty of rooms to climb. First timers. Had a blast!
LOVE the setting here and the training tools (tension board, weights area, campus board, and hangboards)!
No top rope or lead routes, mostly a bouldering focused gym with high routes to boulder on. There are auto belays though. I went on a Wednesday... night and it was busy, but mostly club kids which is always cool to see. Almost - 1 ⭐ cuz the club kids kept showing me up on my routes 🤣read more
I’ve been going to Focus Climbing Center for over 3 years and it is phenomenal. The membership is well worth it. There is a massive bouldering wall... ranging from slab to roof, 8 auto-belays and workout equipment. I highly recommend checking this place out for both bouldering and rope! Thank you for creating a community that I’m proud to be a part of!!!read more
On a work trip a friend and I dropped in here to get a climb session in. Tanner was great at laying out the safety features during my 1st visit. Auto... belay was fun. Routes were decent. We didn't boulder. It was not super busy which was nice for a Tuesday evening!read more
One of my favorite gyms to climb at! The staff is always friendly and very knowledgeable.
I've been climbing here since August 2023 (I'm writing this in November 2023 for reference) and I have so much fun every time I go to focus (3ish... times a week). Extremely friendly employees and a very peaceful atmosphere in the gym. I also appreciate that this place is a small business and not a national chain, you can certainly feel the love for the place from the owner and employees.read more
This is a great gym! It's fun, great setters, and they change up routes frequently. I learn a lot climbing here and feel inspired to get better.
Loved this place. Joe the owner, is amazing, he personally showed my sons the ropes (literally) as well as the free climbing areas. I like this place... compared to other indoor rock climbing because they have a weight training section. I’m not a climber, so while the kiddos are there climbing I was able to get a great weight workout. Good areas for waiting as well. The bathrooms are very clean and they have offer a really good hand lotion after all the dryness the chalk causes. Thank you Joe. We want to come back soon.😎read more
great gym! met the owner and he’s an awesome guy, also got a free tee on tuesdays!SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES !!!
routes were super fun, bouldering grades are tough, owner was super nice. awesome for a smaller gym would definitely come back
Climbing at Focus Climbing Center with my brother-in-law was awesome! We both had a blast scaling the walls. The staff was friendly and made sure we... were safe. It's a great place for family fun and adventure. We had a memorable time climbing together.read more
Fun day! I’m recently getting back into indoor climbing. The orientation seemed mandatory regardless of prior indoor climbing experience for... firstimers at focusread more
The autobelays are great if you are visiting on your own and staff were great. Looking forward to visiting on my next Phoenix trip.
The owner is one of the most helpful and friendly guys ever. He was very attentive with showing us as first timers the safety features of the climb.... And all and all the whole facility was clean and nice and chilly during the summer heat. Super affordable I signed up that day! Excited to continue to climb here encourage you to check it out!read more
Fantastic climbing gym! Auto-belay system, so that anyone can climb, is brilliant! We will definitely return many more times in the future.
ORIGINAL POST: My wife and I were looking for something for one of my sons (14 years old) to do through the summer, and he'd recently gone wall... climbing and enjoyed it. After an extensive search throughout southern Phoenix, Chandler, Tempe, Mesa, etc. (that included online and in-person visits) the Focus Climbing Center was easily the best location that we found: with both wall-climbing (individual) and bouldering on constantly changing / updated walls, along with available classes, all supported by the friendliest staff [and community] you could hope for - this location is one of our favorite businesses in the area, a regular stop for our family, and a must-stop for current climbers (beginner to very experienced), and future climbers alike.UPDATE: as school started, we took our kids out of climbing (timing and school sports constraints) and FOCUS Climbing to stop taking out payments. However, there was some confusion and the payments/withdrawals didn't stop. We did hear back from Focus Climbing and after a couple of months of this, on Nov. 10, 2023 I requested a refund. We heard back a couple of days later, received a refund for November, and believe this was sorted out on the back end as well (so it won't happen again).read more
