Rock Climbers

The boys starting taking rock climbing lessons a couple of months ago at a climbing gym, and they are loving it! They are learning fundamentals of climbing, rappelling, tying knots, how to put on and check climbing equipment, and they are working on belaying each other. Their coach is very patient and really enjoys working with the boys. They have come a long way since they started, and it's amazing to see their strength and how they can spider their way up these walls.

I think repelling is their favorite part of the climb! This is Benjamin,

They have also enjoyed bouldering too. Each week they try to get one rock higher! This is Caleb

This has been a fun new activity for the boys and we are excited to keep it going for the next couple of months. We hope to find a good climbing gym in Ankara!
