What parents say
"Booked a climbing trip through Joe - he was super friendly and helpful. Norman took us bouldering out in Joshua Tree and we had a wonderful time. Norman was so friendly and helpful, he taught us a lot about the different areas to boulder in JT, and he discussed lots of climbing technique with us. I would highly recommend booking a trip through Climb Life if you’re looking to getting into climbing outdoors!"

"Joe was a fantastic surfing instructor. It had been a while since I tried my hand at surfing so I was a bit apprehensive, but he was such a positive, knowledgeable guide that he totally put me at ease. We took things at a nice and easy pace and I’m happy to write that I can’t wait to get back out there. If you’re looking for a fun, thoughtful surfing lesson - Joe is your guy!"
