MAS rock climbing classes are fun, paced and provide a supportive environment to learn, share and explore the exciting sport of outdoor rock climbing. MAS offers a wide variety of courses designed to meet the needs of both novice and experienced climbers. MAS rock climbing programs are divided into 4 categories:

MAS offers rock climbing programs throughout Northern California and chooses sites based on access, quality and beauty. Currently MAS is running programs in Bear Valley, South Lake Tahoe (Lovers Leap, Phantom Spires & Sugarloaf), Calaveras Dome, Sawtooth Range (Matterhorn Peak & Incredible Hulk), Castle Rock State Park and Cragmont in the Berkeley Hills.

Rock climbing is a blend of strength, endurance, flexibility, and problem solving.  People are often surprised at the subtleties of physical movement and mental focus.  Often the thoughtful and creative climber is more successful than the taller or more powerful climber.

MAS specializes in high quality rock climbing programs with low student to instructor ratios.  We feel that smaller courses maximize your opportunity to learn, share and excel. MAS strives to make every program "top-notch", whether it be a long multi-pitch adventure at Lovers Leap or Boy Scout Merit Badge weekend in Bear Valley. We hope to see you out on the rock this summer!
