As an organization that delivers trips and trainings across the country, we are acutely aware of the impact coronavirus and COVID-19 is having on all communities, and we will continue to monitor and follow CDC guidelines and recommendations as we enter our spring programming season. Please see our recent Letter from Executive Director Dave Elmore for more information about the impact on our programs, and email us at info@paradoxsports.org if you have questions or concerns.
We are actively developing a comprehensive COVID-19 Health & Safety Plan in order to address how we will proceed with our program delivery moving forward. Please continue to check back here to access detailed information.
WHY CLIMBING?
Climbing requires you to be present in both mind and body, and often the “disability” holding you back is in the mind.
In this sport, adaptive equipment is required even for able-bodied climbers. Harnesses, ropes, ice tools, and other gadgets aid in ascending the wall for people of all abilities, adaptive athletes do not necessarily need adaptive equipment to go climbing.
Making climbing accessible to all.

WHAT WE DO

We are passionate about engaging everyone in climbing and the climbing community because the community is what keeps us coming back.
