Hi! Today we're talking about bouldering — climbing indoors on walls or outdoors on real rocks. Let's chat about it!

“Have you ever tried climbing, either indoors or outdoors? How did it feel?”

“Do you think climbing indoors is safer than climbing outdoors? Why?”

“If a friend invited you to a climbing gym this weekend, would you say yes or no?”

“Which do you prefer for exercise — being inside a gym or being outside in nature?”

“Imagine you had to climb a very challenging route. What would help you feel confident?”
