Wall Running or as it is also known ‘Vertical Dance’ involves the performer wearing and using climbing harnesses and ropes to suspend themselves against a wall or vertical surface. The performer uses the surface to create momentum both forwards and backwards across the wall and often incorporates leaps, somersaults and full turns away from the wall.
Suitable for all levels, instruction will include learning how to use the climbing harness and equipment correctly and safely.
We currently do not have any wall running programmes. Please see our private lessons for more options.

There is never any pressure to go higher or do anything I'm uncomfortable with but I still always find myself pushing my boundaries from the support and enthusiasm of Brenda and the students. Couldn't ask for a better environment to see what I'm capable of or better people to share a passion with.
