Progression Climbing

While the gym is relatively small and is bouldering only, don't let that dissuade you from visiting. The staff is friendly, the price feels fair, and the routes are challenging no matter your skill level. I'd originally intended to come a couple times a month, but the place sucked me in; I've been a member for a couple of months now and it's been an absolute blast.

Good place for children and men. Inappropriate behavior towards women is normal and reinforced by management. This gross negligence continues into the quality of the safety mats. The mats in the kilter board room have already caused sprained ankles or dislocated elbows but no changes have been made. The mats in the main room caused sprained ankles as well because they were not properly taped, causing the foot to go through the mats. I paid for personal training sessions. He did not show up to all the sessions so he could play golf or leave town. Unfortunately the workouts were just following the crimpd app. The advice given included body comments and telling me I didn’t need to eat so much even though all my clothes are a size extra small. Yet despite not having weight loss goals, they were forced on me when he kept using the word “big” to describe me. He would not accept my gym termination and tried to follow up with mutual contacts stating he was confused and needed more information. I tried my best to tolerate it the best I could until it became impossible. Please do better.

Such a great experience especially because of their staff, I couldn’t find the place and they were really helpful to the point of having someone outside waiting for us. They also are very friendly to new/beginners at climbing, I’ll definitely go again for my next trip to NC.

Good gym. Setting is on par with classic outdoor climbs and grades seem fair. But, Progression really needs to obtain a commercial pad system. Current pads seem to be just layers of builder grade foam, which move and soften quickly. This is my third review here (I was previously at five stars), and each review changes because of pad quality--pads were replaced but are now worn.

It’s a small but very fun gym. The routesetters actually know what they’re doing and set a variety of different route styles unlike other gyms you might find in the area. The employees are really friendly and the day passes are very affordable too. The only downside to this gym is the size, if the bouldering area were like double the current size I would immediately cancel my TRC membership and go here instead.
