Climb NORA is crowdsourced from our lived experiences across the climbing communities of Canada, Dallas, Austin, Chicago, New York, and of course, Seattle.

Inspired by Brooklyn’s vibrant climbing scene where folks from all over the world come together and connect through movement, and grassroots non-profits lowering economic barriers to the sport; Climb NORA is on a mission to bring an equitable climbing gym to Washington’s Southside communities.

From gym-to-crag efforts to subsidized programs, we put local communities at the forefront of Climb NORA and our hearts. With diverse roots grounding the team to build a gym where access meets outdoor grit, Climb NORA is breaking ground in 2025.
