There’s no other way to put it, this place is huge and the perfect place to learn and grow as a climber. We have more than 38,000 square feet of varied climbing terrain â just for some perspective, that’s the surface area of three Olympic-sized pools! And we certainly like to have fun here, from Harry Potter themed parties to canned food drives, we have a thriving community that is always excited to meet new friends. Come for the climbing, stay for the helpful advice from gym staff and motivation from other members cheering each other up the wall.

Welcome Laura, our new fitness program manager at Crystal City, leading the WOD on friday evenings! also a special moment to highlight our exciting new fitness and yoga schedule, designed to keep classes consistent and make it easier for you to structure your routine. đ
Here are a few fun facts about Laura: sheâs from sunny California, she fosters dogs đ , and started climbing with her dad at a young age!
Her passion when it comes to fitness is đŞ
âI started working as a personal trainer because I wanted to help others feel included in fitness spaces no matter their level of ability or experience.â
A-D route grading is back! đ
As of today (March 3), +/- grading will be retired and replaced with A-D grading at all Movement gyms. Weâve experimented with many grading systems across our gyms, and through our collective experience, we feel that A-D offers the most optimal in-gym experience when combined with consensus grading.
This A-D and consensus dynamic duo offers three key benefits âŹď¸
1ď¸âŁ Subjectivity of grading: Your experience with a climb is unique to you! Our Routesetters put a lot of thought into every grade, considering diverse perspectives, climbing styles, and experiences. We propose grades, but itâs the climbing community that ultimately shapes them through feedback and consensus. Using the YDS A-D system for routes in combination with consensus tags, we aim to keep grades as fair and consistent as possible while staying true to local norms.
2ď¸âŁ Increased granularity improves the ability to self-curate your experience: We know that tracking progress and performance is important to many climbers, and with a more granular grade offering, session curation and performance tracking is improved.
3ď¸âŁ Authentic to the core of our sport: The most common grading system for sport climbing is the YDS A-D system. Grades vary wildly depending on the area, first ascensionist, ethics, etc., but we feel it is important to align with this system as it provides an experience that is relatable and authentic to the sport.
Grading isnât an exact science, and itâs always evolving alongside the climbing community. While grades will never be perfect, they create a shared language for setting goals, tracking progress, and finding the right challenge.
Whether grades push you to try harder or just serve as a rough guideline, weâre stoked to roll out this change and we hope you are too! Climb on đ§
