Sender One - Playa Vista

Love this community little gym, which says a lot since I’m not much of a boulderer. This gym is small but the energy and vibe are always on point. The staff are amazing and the facilities are always very clean. I’ll definitely keep coming but to this spot!

Gavin is an incredible instructor, so thorough and kind and encouraging. Great experience for a total beginner.

Sender One at Runway in Playa Vista is a brand new bouldering/climbing gym! The rocks for each level of climbs are colored so you have suggestions for staying on course. They do a reduced price climb night a few times a month and a LGQBT night as well as other ongoing events. They offer kids hours for little ones and have a really fun tread wall! This gym is bouldering only so no ropes but if you’re looking for that, they also have a climbing gym in El Segundo with the ropes! You can park in the runway parking structure for a few bucks or on the surrounding streets!

Really enjoy having a local climbing gym. Generally feel that the routes are interesting, varied, and rotated out frequently enough that we are kept interested week to week as members. The facilities are also quite nice! Appreciate that there is a small gym. My and my husband’s chief complaint is that their hours are not well formulated, particularly on the weekends. We have consistently wished that we could come in early (before 10am — not really that early) or stay late on the weekends. Instead, later hours are only offered on weekdays. Our previous gym was the opposite; they were open earlier and longer on the weekends. We really miss having this flexibility!

Wonderful place with great staff except for one person and her name is Katherine. Horrifying experience with Kat. I arrived 4 mins late for a climbing class set for our kids. We waited in line for 5 mins to have her resolve an issue she was having with the prior customer. By the time our turn came she said we could not go into the class because we were 9 mins late. We've been many times at this gym and my kids have been to this class before and never did we experience such rigid rules. All customer support agents have always been wonderful and accommodating with the exception of Kat. Now I never want to recommend this place because of my experience with this front desk person.
