thanks!

I took the intro course a few weeks ago. It was good, and the instructor was really nice. I went by myself, and it was no problem. You should register for the course ahead of time, though, because the places can fill up quickly--I had to wait two weeks to take the course because it was fully booked.

i just enquired about the wall climbing at TST and its $50 assesment and $84 for harness hire, i may go this week and give it a go.

hey saphire! thanks for the info!
i'm still waiting for a couple more people to get their timings that way we can all go hopefully soon!

hey mega, you said u went and did it alone right? so do you get paired up with the instructors? or are there other people on their own too, co'z then i think i might go alone too.

When I went, there were 6 people, and the instructor split us into 2 groups of 3, and we all took turns climbing and belaying. So it should be no problem if you go by yourself.

I'd like to do some more climbing, so if you or anyone else is looking for someone to climb with, please let me know.

thanks mega. i called the ymca yesterday, and you're right, they can only take up to 6 people per course.
thankfully there were some spaces available for this monday the 12th, but i was told to book it quick coz' it will be filled up pretty soon.
