Climbing is dangerous, so you must always be aware of your surroundings while in the facility. Keep space between climbers, don\u2019t walk between an active belayer (person holding rope) and their partner, and don\u2019t hold ropes if you have not passed a proficiency to use them. When bouldering, stay off the mats until you\u2019re ready to climb, down climb a few holds when possible to avoid jumping from height, and if you fall hug your arms to your chest, land on your feet, and roll onto your back to disperse the force.
