Love it! Favorite touchstone gym in all of LA. I think the biggest strength here compared to the others is accessibility and space. Hollywood boulders feels much larger and nicer to beginner climbers like me (VB - V3)

Yoga classes included with membership and passes, weights, and other workout equipment available... loved it! The only downside is that parking can be a bit tough

Great place to go for rock climbing because you can go over the wall and stay up there and hang out. Many posters on information about the routes and the creators as well as the events held daily. Parking is sparse and you need to make sure you park on a space designated LAB or you get towed. Yoga on Sunday mornings.
This 12,000 square foot warehouse houses the go-to Downtown area climbing club, so it's best to brush up on your Spiderman skills before tackling a V-level of your choice. It's also worth noting that the Touchstone outpost is a bouldering gym, a.k.a. no ropes or harnesses while you climb. Don?t worry: The foam-lined venue is as concerned with safety as it is fun, but you should definitely know how to climb and?eek?properly fall before you propel yourself 17 feet off the ground.
Interested in more than just a single climbing sesh? You can also break a sweat working out on the mezzanine level in classes focused on core strength, arm strength, but strength, and four types of yoga. If climbing in the gym is just a stepping stone to getting outside, check out LAB's outdoor climbing clinics (with a free outdoor education and stewardship class thrown in).
