Movement Climbing, Yoga, and Fitness Expands in Philadelphia with Opening of Pennsylvania’s Largest Indoor Rock Climbing Gym

Movement Climbing, Yoga, and Fitness, the nation’s largest climbing gym, today announced the opening of its newest Philadelphia location on Saturday, November 22. Conveniently located at 1700 N American St, Philadelphia, PA 19122, Movement Fishtown, the largest indoor rock climbing gym in Pennsylvania, offers more than 41,000 square feet of climbing, yoga, and fitness space designed to serve the greater Philly community.

The new gym will welcome climbers, yogis, and fitness enthusiasts of all levels with premium amenities, including 29,000 square feet of climbing terrain, featuring both roped routes and bouldering areas with walls up to 42 feet high.

There’ll also be a world-class training zone, featuring a Kilter Board, Hydraulic Tension Board 2 (HTB2), campus board and hang boards for performance training.

A boutique yoga studio will host weekly classes that are free for members, alongside a dedicated fitness room for instructor-led workouts. The full-service fitness area is outfitted with high-performance cardio and strength equipment, including Rogue racks, Matrix machines, and a functional training circuit.

Connecting with other members will be facilitated by a community lounge with shared workspace areas, custom crash-pad couches, and ample cubby storage, all designed for relaxing, working, and socializing.

Large locker rooms with showers and changing areas are available for member convenience as well as a fully stocked retail shop offering climbing shoes, chalk, bags, apparel, and accessories, staffed by knowledgeable team members.

The gym will also offer special programming and community offerings including youth programs (after-school activities, teams, and summer camps), a full slate of classes for beginner to advanced climbers, competitions, themed climb nights, and social meetups.

To celebrate the gym’s opening, Movement invites the community to experience the new facility with free climbing and rentals during its opening weekend.

“We’re excited to welcome area residents to our growing community,” said Bob Brown, the gym director of the new location. “With nearly 30,000 square feet of climbing terrain, advanced training tools, and a dedicated yoga and fitness offering, this gym was designed to support everyone, from kids trying top-rope for the first time to competitive athletes honing their skills.”

Movement’s newest gym furthers the company’s mission to create exceptional climbing, yoga, and fitness experiences that encourage growth and invite connection. This will be Movement’s second Philadelphia location, joining the company’s established Callowhill gym approximately two miles away.
