Movement - Hurt my hand - Rock Climbing Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Best place for bouldering. I really enjoy coming here for bouldering. Movement climbing centers are a very pristine place for rock climbing. This is the best place for bouldering. It is all bouldering here, and there are so many diverse of routes to climb. Staff are friendly. The parking and entrance to the place is a little confusing, so take note of the signs posted. read more

Absurd price increases. My cost of membership is up about 50% in the last three years since Movement bought out Summit. They've now run Oso out of business too, so they've got a monopoly on DFW climbing gyms. Of course, that just means they're going to keep raising prices. They just announced another increase for January 2026. I'm going to have to think long and hard about whether it's worth it to continue. Besides that, it's decent. Setting is fine, although the grades vary dramatically across the DFW locations. read more

The Best Gym for a lot of things. Back in 2022 I saw a friend posting a reel where he was climbing and I was amazed of how colorful but nice the gym looked. I checked the location & I saw one the Design District location 15 away from . I had never climbed before but saw they had classes like total body fitness & Yoga ‍ all in one gym. I was used to lifting at regular gyms ($11-$29 p/month) or yoga only facilities ($120 p/month) & outdoor activities yet, I didn't care I didn't know how to climb. I cared about the only gym being so close. The 1st day (FREE) was the GRAND OPENING ‍ They had the best party (at a gym) I have gone. First of, Jeremy & Marisa at the front desk were AMAZING helping me to get my climbing shoes. Then I immediately saw they were giving freebies at its max, even FOOD. That won my attention & . Then I attended the workout class with Hayden & I loved how he prepared the class. FYI : I had already fallen in love with the facility with my friend's video But when I walked in the locker room... oh my WOW clean and free towels, sauna, showers, shampo, soap, amazing use your own numbers lockers. I immediately went & pay for the membership, they had an amazing offer ($60 monthly for 3 months) BTW they always have offers thru the year. $60 was TOO MUCH but NOT REALLY. I needed to take advantage of this, I was going Monday-Sunday sometime twice a day I have met so many great and unique people, not only the employees but members who have been even my customers (I cook Vegan Food) Let me tell you about the rest of the trainers who I still see & have made friendships with: I mentioned before : Jeremy, Marisa & Hayden ‍trainers: Anna, Lourdes & later JC (Jean Claude) they are my favorite, they even say they miss me sometimes or they remind me I can lift higher when I make myself lazy ‍ My 2 most favorite are : Gio with foundation class & Ratchet_Rabbit: Austin with his amazing power flow (aaaaau bird noise)‍ & music list but recently met Yogiontherocks: Marcos & the lady (I don't know her name but she is the one who calms me so much I have fallen asleep twice with the sound bath but WAIT...Jacob & Emily at The Hill with the Acro Yoga (so fkng Fun) My Front Desk Loves : Bee Lou (or Lu) , Mahmud, Frank (Francisco who loves my mac not cheese ) & Maelyn have been so welcoming and made me feel like I am part of them. There are 2 people who I haven't seen but Alejandro & Marco. Overall, I have gone to : Plano, Grapevine, The Hill, Design District & San Francisco (CA) under the Golden Gate Thank you for this amazing community which includes everyone doesn't matter who, what, which thing you are or where you come from. Check out their events, they do amazing giveaways and stuf. Tania Cantu aka @plantbasedmexican I love climbing now ‍ read more

For $100 a mo, it's good, but there are some issues. In the past, they didn't replace mats quick enough and my foot got sprained (Plano). Seems like they are a little slow on replacement and only do it when someone ends up getting hurt and they HAVE to. Always seeing leaking buckets when it rains, and this issue hasn't been fixed since even Summit, so it's been years where dripping is in the same spots. ***(Walnut hill) Saunas always at 130-150 range which is not hot at all (basically not worth even using)***. (Grapevine) Sometimes when there are too many people, it can get a bit chalky and I get a lot more "soot" in my nose when I blow after a session, maybe not enough areas with filtration? Not sure. Apart from this, I pay for all of my own gear so $100 seems a little expensive. Only thing that adds value on top of climbing is yoga/hit classes (which is nice at Plano) and they have a company come and clean their towels. They also have shops at every location with food bars, drinks, gear. I never buy from them because it seems cheaper at REI. I will spend $70+ on shoes but can't justify $150+ movement shoes sorry. read more

This place is only for the advanced folks who want to climb so noobs be warned. You'll have to learn how to tie a figure 8 to your climbing gear in order to belay. There is also not any autobelays either so if you're a noob, don't come. If you didn't come with any friends and they don't have a person to teach you their method to belay, you're screwed. Great place though with lots of space for yoga and weightlifting as well, just not very beginner friendly for climbing. read more

Movement - Climbing - Rock Climbing Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Had a great time checking out Movement Gym with a group of Ladies exploring the space. Movement has memberships as well as single day-passes for anyone just wanting to check things out. Staff gave us a tour of the awesome facilities (multiple areas with bouldering walls of varying difficulty, weight machines, practice walls, cardio equipment, etc)- this gym seems to have it all. We also got a quick demo from a staff member on how to fall properly and then we were climbing. A really fun place that is great for everyone from kids to adults, I'll definitely be back with to explore more of the space. It was a lot of fun. read more

Wow! Guess I did not fully explore this location. I didn't realized they had more upstairs.. funny, I thought to myself like this place is small. Thanks for the photos guys! I usually go to the Design District location because its near home. I come for the gym and haven't really spent time climbing. I love the idea of a gym and a rock climbing place. They had specials and I signed up for 6 months! Its a great place to get all in one, rock climbing, top rope, gym, sauna, yoga, etc. Its also a nice place to meet people beside the bar ;) read more

So much fun, as a couple date, going with friends or by your self. When you do walk in they ask you to sign a waiver. If you want a tour that is perfectly fine. If not they explore as much as you need. There are different level for the climbing class. So it depends what's your level. It's very big so you can go multiple area. Purple is the easiest and beginners too. Highly recommend to start that first if your a newbie like me. Definitely will go here again read more

Movement - Rock Climbing Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This gym has a good amount going for it, but also a few issues that no one seems to care about. First of all, this is a climbing gym. There is a ton of routes spread out on multiple wall types. The route setting is very creative at times although the grades are very inconsistent as they vary wildly within the same range. The fitness center has great options for free weights, but nearly no options for machines even though there is plenty of open space for them. They are very inviting to certain groups of people while they completely ignore other groups. This is evident in their desire to segregate their members based on trivial characteristics. read more

What a beautifully vibrant and modern new climbing gym. :) Movement had a promo in Nov: 30 days for $30, and so my bf and I snapped those up as soon as we were aware. The other climbing gym I frequent is Summit. I love both for different reasons. (Unfortunately for my wallet!) This location is ALL bouldering. There is no top rope or lead climbing - just a heads up. This also means it has so. many. bouldering. routes. :) I primarily boulder bc ya girl is afraid of heights haha. PROS + Bouldering (plenty of routes) + Downstairs lifting area with barbells /plates/benches and cages + Upstairs cardio and crossfit style gym area + Clean a f restrooms + Cubbies AND lockable lockers (no personal lock needed!!) + Saunas in the bathrooms What is not to love‽ Super excited to go more before the 30 days are out, and then decide whether or not to pause my Summit membership lol. It's also directly off of 75, so getting here is easy (as long as there isn't any traffic on 75... lol!) They're also integrated with the KAYA climbing app, so you can download that and track your attempts and sends (completed climbs). All the routes are there, AND they show the actual grade (eg V1 for the purple route you may be attempting). Will obviously be back. Prob tomorrow haha. :) read more

This gym is pretty good, and the bulk of this review will compare Movement Climbing to the other major bouldering gym in Dallas, Oso Climbing Gym- which I gave 5 stars on Yelp in a different review. I visited during the first day of the Grand Opening (October 9, 2021), and overall enjoyed the gym. There are lots of bouldering routes, weight training/cardio equipment, and lounge areas. However, I'm giving this gym 4 stars because generally Oso outshines Movement- which I'll discuss below: Routes: Oso and Movement both use colored holds to indicate the difficulty of the routes. I found the ratings at Movement to be a bit more arbitrary though, with certain routes in the "easy" range that were clearly not "easy" and certain routes in the "intermediate" range that were what I would label "beginner" Walls: I think in terms of surface area, both Oso and Movement have about the same. I'll give Movement the leg up though, because there seemed to be a wider variety of slab, overhung, and curved walls. Movement also had more efficient use of wall space, with lots of overlapping routes, whereas at Oso, routes tend to be more clearly separated. Cardio equipment: point goes to Movement, which has clearly more treadmills, elliptical, bikes, and rowing machines than Oso Weight training equipment: Oso can't be beat- way more training equipment- some that you wouldn't even find in a dedicated weight training gym like 24 hour fitness! Lounge areas: I'd say Oso wins in this category, but it's kinda minor. Movement has some lounge chairs scattered around, and some tables and chairs upstairs, but not as nice as the amount Oso has. Locker rooms: Oso's locker room is slightly smaller. Both gyms offer a sauna and towels, as well as shampoo and body wash in the showers. Miscellaneous: Movement doesn't have any restrooms other than what is in the locker rooms, which can be a minor annoyance if you're upstairs. Outside, there's also a long slack line and a cornhole (beanbag toss) game setup. Would I return? Yeah probably, especially if the entrance fee or membership fee is less than Oso's. I'll wait until the second Movement gym opens in 2022 in the Design District to make a decision on which company is truly better read more

Made me fall in love with the gym for the first time! I love rock climbing and have really enjoyed being able to get better at that. The atmosphere is stellar and I feel very welcome. I have met and exchanged numbers with so many people and even some of the staff know me by name which I have never had happen before. Considering the price of the gyms surrounding the area and just how new and cool this gym is, it really shocks me that I'm even a member at a place so nice. Earnestly a decent price for a gym of this caliber. read more

This is a great gym with a lot of features. Their were plenty of routes for all levels of climbers and so much space to explore! Movement does a great job of creating a welcoming environment. The staff is always kind and courteous. The facility is super clean and equipment is in peak condition. The gym is large so I recommend taking a guided tour or exploring the gym for yourself before climbing if it's your first visit. Also a plus, if you become a member they have another gym opening close by that will allow for you to hop between gyms. read more

Great setting! Friendly staff. Clean gym. Highly recommend! Much love ya'll!! @Dyno_guru

This gym was great. The staff was friendly. Atmosphere was chill and inviting. For someone who doesn't climb as a hobby, the cost was still reasonable given all the other amenities they offer: yoga classes, other locations, weightlifting equipment. An overall great experience. read more

Similar to design district in the sense it takes a while to reset the routes. Overall amazing though. We recommend:)

The climbing itself is diverse and there are lots of different problems to explore. The place is HUGE so there's usually open areas to dabble here and there. Weekends can get crazy, go early or late. However, if you find yourself here on a Sunday -- make sure to ask how to get a beer at the brewery a few yards away! Multiple different angles of slabs, underhangs/caves, and some vertical areas sprinkled about. They use the V rating system and label using colored routes and tags like most other places. Again, there is soo much wall!! There are two areas where instead of traditional gym climbs you can top out and then come down the designated "down" if needs be. Amenities are everywhere! Full lockers, half lockers, cubbies, showers, multiple bathrooms, huge sink for washing off chalk without needing to go into bathroom, bandaids, tape, nail clippers for flappers at the front desk and seating everywhere! It is a two story loft design, so there is an upstairs hang out/viewing area. Upstairs is also where yoga classes are held and the cardio center is located. There is a workout/weight area downstairs with a few rowing machines. There are yoga classes and other strengthening/fitness classes available! If you're not a member, yoga classes are available to purchase. They also have shoes to rent if you don't have your own pair. Chalk is available to purchase! read more

This is the only climbing gym I've ever been a member of so I can't compare it to anything. This location is just bouldering , they do have fitness classes and equipment. I have taken yoga with Austin , he is amazing. Every staff member I've interacted with has been extremely helpful and you can tell they love climbing. Each wall has different colors on the Climbing routs purple being the easiest and blue being the second, I haven't gone past blue LOL. They have shoes for rent or for sale , the same with chalk . They also seem to be a very inclusive and follow their tag line climb as you are which I do appreciate. After taking the intro class and visiting a few times they told me they were building a new location In the design district that was scheduled to open this June. I decided to take advantage of their special and signed up . I was under the impression I'd get to use this location until the design district opened and the new location for a year after it opened . Due to the delay they decided not to extend the prepaid membership, but would waive the freeze fee and loose access until the design district opens . They also made it very clear they will stop waiving freeze fees once the new location opens . Not the best way to handle delays , but things happen and was understanding, now it's been delayed until Fall. Would not be surprised if it gets delayed until the winter. Had I known this is how they conduct business I would have bought a short term membership. Another slap in the face from movement is they decided to have some youth climbing competition and closed the gym to the public . The public includes paying members too. You would think they might have a deal with another climbing gym or at the very least have some outdoor classes . Nope . They did make it clear how special they were to have this competition. John Reed Fitness had a delay in opening and they handled it extremely well , too bad they don't have a climbing wall, movement should learn from them. read more

I've been to rock gyms in about a dozen locations around the US, and the Movement gyms in Dallas are the best climbing facilities I have seen so far. Of the two gyms in Dallas, the Design District location is the better facility by far, but The Hill location is also a great gym (especially for bouldering). Everyone at both gyms - the staff and fellow climbers - were incredibly friendly and encouraging. On top of that, I needed some help changing my membership after I first joined, and the customer support team was very responsive and accommodating. Overall, a great experience that I highly recommend. read more

I had a booth at the World Clean Up Event and Cindi and the team were wonderful to work with! The gym was great and laid out well. I can't wait to return and climb. read more

LOVE THIS PLACE!!! It starts off with amazing energy from the moment you walk in the door and then you're greeted by several people working at the desk always there to help you with whatever you need get you checked in get you anything that you're looking for or any help to get you started place is clean clean they take care of this place. They're proud of it. This is a community , you can tell everyone is welcome here you get that feeling the minute you step inside that door I could not be happier I originally was going to regular workout gyms and I found this beautiful place not only did I find a place where I can lift weights, and do cardio I found a new hobby. I am now a climber. This is the place to go. You will not be sorry. read more

Amazing gym. Modern facilities, super clean. The route setting is fantastic, and there's always some fun new route to try. The staff is super friendly, makes you feel at home. I love this place! read more

Really neat gym. What a great addition to the climbing community. I love that they are open until 11pm during the week.

It's very boulder Comp style. Not my style of climbing and the atmosphere felt very cold not that I didn't feel welcomed, I did. However I only climbed for a little bit before I thought it was too busy to comfortably climb read more

Great new bouldering gym. From out of town and found this place. Has great workout space and tons of climbing options.
