OUR MISSION

Paradox Sports is dedicated to transforming lives and communities through adaptive climbing opportunities that defy convention.

WHY CLIMBING?

Our founders believed in the transformational power of climbing—and in sharing the opportunity it offers to be fully present in both mind and body. They also recognized that everyone adapts in climbing through the use of equipment. For people with disabilities, the greatest barrier to enjoying climbing is often not their disability, but the belief that they can’t be climbers. At Paradox, we exist to change that belief, both for our participants and for society as a whole.

WHAT WE DO

Paradox Sports offers accessible climbing opportunities for people with differing abilities, defying the perception that people with a ‘disability’ cannot lead a life of adventure. We provide outdoor rock and ice climbing trips, training and local programs. We are passionate about engaging and welcoming everyone who is interested in participating, and at our core, we believe in building community.

OUR PROGRAMS

Making climbing accessible to all.
