If you’re an amateur adventure geek who is eager to experience an activity in a safe environment, an academy in Andheri might have the right pick for you. Mumbai Movement Academy conducts workshops that are open to anyone aged 16 years and above. Those with no prior experience can also sign up. 

Dr Rishi Prasad, co-founder of the academy, elaborates about the programme, “The workshop is an introductory session for rock climbing, especially for the beginners who have never had a chance to explore rock climbing before. Basic fitness levels are compulsory. Those who don’t have medical or physical restrictions can attend the workshop. For example, if they are restricted by doing certain movements like hanging on their arms, it could be problematic. Apart from these constraints, you don’t need to have any particular fitness level to be able to experience it.”
