Oasis Climbing's
New Courses Structure
Dear Parents and Carers,
We’re writing to let you know about some exciting updates to our youth programs at Oasis Climbing, starting next term. These changes are designed to support consistency, safety, and skill development across all levels, while continuing to offer a high-quality climbing experience for your family.
Most importantly, they reflect our growing vision: to not just run great classes, but to build a strong, connected climbing community — a place where your kids (and you!) feel confident, supported, and welcome any time you walk through the door.
Updated Courses
We’ve refined our programs into four core levels, making it easier for climbers to find the right fit and progress smoothly through the pathway:
Pebbles – A playful class for very young children and their parents, focused on early movement, imagination, and confidence-building in a gentle environment.
Youth Climbing – Ideal for children who are ready to climb independently, follow instructions in a group setting, and build foundational climbing skills through games, movement, and guided challenges. To support each climber’s journey, we’re excited to introduce a new skills booklet — a progress guide that follows students from their first climbs through to advanced techniques and, eventually, skilled lead climbing. It will help students (and families) understand what they’re working toward at each stage.
Development Squad – Our new Development Squad combines what were previously two separate classes: the Squad and the Development Team. While these were once taught independently with a single stream per class, the new format introduces two coaching streams within one shared session. This approach allows us to better support a range of climbers while also encouraging older or more advanced students to mentor and support younger climbers. It’s a more dynamic environment for building confidence, leadership, and community. Our updated timetable also allows senior coaches David and Josh to be involved more consistently across all sessions.
Academy – A dedicated training group for adult climbers who want to integrate climbing into their lifestyle. These sessions support personal goal-setting, skill refinement, and sustainable training habits that complement work and life commitments.
Free Facility Membership for Enrolled Climbers
We believe the magic of climbing happens not just in structured classes, but in the everyday moments shared on the wall — practicing with friends, setting personal challenges, or simply hanging out after school or work.
That’s why every course enrolment includes a free membership to Oasis Climbing, giving your child (or you, if you're in Academy) full access to the facility for the entire term.
This includes:
-
Unlimited casual climbing access during open hours
-
Free gear hire
-
The ability to come in any time — not just for your class
We’d love to see our students and families spending more time in the space, getting to know the community, and making climbing a fun and familiar part of their weekly routine.
Private Coaching Now Available
We also offer private coaching sessions for climbers of all ages looking to explore unique goals, receive one-on-one support, or take their climbing to the next level. Whether it’s building confidence, learning to belay, prepping for comps, or refining specific skills — we’d love to support your journey in a personalized way. Private lessons are a great way to sharpen your skills and stay active over the school holidays.
