β€œEncouraged my inner child at Inner Peaks! ​A huge thank you to my buddies Seung, Luke & team Inner Peaks! I’ve always wanted to try climbing but wasn't sure if beginners with zero experience were welcome. Today, I finally broke the ice and it was an awesome experience! πŸ§—β€β™‚οΈπŸ‘ ​It’s truly a complete mind, body, and emotional workout. I started with bouldering and moved on to the auto-belays. There are so many options ranging from total beginner to much more complex levels. I felt like a kid exploring again today :). I loved every minute and will definitely be back to challenge myself and build up my upper body strength!"”

β€œI wanted to give a quick shoutout to the entire staff at the South End Inner Peaks climbing gym located on S. Tryon street here in Charlotte. They are the most welcoming group of young women and men I have ever encountered in this context. I would especially like to thank one staff member; June. She recently helped me find a pair of climbing shoes that are going to take my climbing to the next level. Her knowledge of the available choices and patience with me; as we attempted to find the right fit, was top notch! Thanks for that June and thank you all for making me and my wife feel so welcomed at the gym!”
