Ashley: "I'm Ashley. We started climbing like 10 years ago on and off. It's nice to come here to build up our strength again and get back into climbing. About 3 years ago, I ruptured a pulley while climbing. The recovery from that was a lot longer than I was expecting. When I came back to climbing, there was a lot of like fear around doing it again. So yeah, it is nice to have a place that we can come to and feel like we are making progress. I really like this gym cuz I feel like it's super approachable, but then there's also variety in those colors."

Bill: "I'm Bill. Mhm. Yeah, I do appreciate that. I feel like with the way you guys set, you're always trying to train us on a new skill on each different circuit. I appreciate that."
