“I signed my 5-year-old daughter up for Rock Club in May 2024, and she has loved it from the start. Despite some mobility challenges, her first coach, Spike, was incredible—ensuring she had fun while making genuine progress every single week. Fast forward nearly two years, and it feels like family; she knows all the staff by name and they always welcome her personally. I’ve even started climbing myself! Now, we come together twice a week after school just for fun. I couldn’t be happier with what the Hangar offers both kids and adults. I’d recommend the sport to anyone—give it a go, you’ll likely fall in love with it! A huge thanks to the whole Matchworks team for being so welcoming, and specifically to Eryn, Lula, Jack, Adam, Matt, and Niamh for being such fantastic Rock Club Mini coaches.”

“I've been going to Women Rock at The Hangar since January 2024 and Tong has helped my climbing throughout, from doing my first blue at my first time at Women Rock, to helping me with a yellow literally yesterday. Not only has she helped with my climbing but has also created a super nice community where I've made a ton of new friends 🫶”

“sometimes the music is hit and miss but today I’ve enjoyed it thoroughly, lots of R.E.M, And She Was (talking heads), and The Killing Moon (echo and the bunnymen). absolute treat, shame about the Oasis”
