We love giving back wherever possible and are proud to work with these folks. When you support The Hive, especially during special events, you’re also supporting at least one of the below organizations.

Michelle loves cave and corner climbing and her current donkey obsession influences her "stubborn but cute" projecting style. You can always count on her to bring homemade pasta salad to the crag, but she'll also insist that giving in to post-climb burger cravings is non-negotiable. When she's not at her favourite crag (Area 44), you can find her admiring sage green and doing other seasonal sports like skiing or mountain biking; just don't ask her how to play chess.

Emma dances up slabby routes like they’re Irish jigs (she used to be a competitive Irish dancer!). Her Instagram is 90% penguin memes, and her favourite plant is a Bird of Paradise—tropical, vibrant, and impossible to ignore.

After 20 years working in music education, Mary reluctantly tried climbing in 2016 and got hooked! Now she lives for climbing education, technical slabs, a good sandwich, a page-turning book, and squeezing into Squamish offwidths. Her perfect day starts early, listening to "Red Clay Halo" in the forest.

Sara loves big moves on jugs almost as much as she loves impromptu naps anywhere - crash pads, benches... Her ability to sleep through anything and love for climbing suggest she may have been a cat in a past life (it is her favourite animal, after all). She fuels her sends with bananas and good vibes.

Lee-Anne is a slab queen who loves cruising around Skaha. Off the wall, she's hiking with her dog, crafting with her friends, munching on cheese and crackers, or teaching pottery.

Alyanna loves crimpy, static climbs and her two tiny but feisty adventure buddies: her two senior chihuahuas. She'll gladly sample any snack her friends bring along, but ice cream is her real weakness after a good session (especially after a send!). She loves Squamish, but she’s always in the neighbourhood for touching new rock.

Ikshan is a bouldering enthusiast fueled by chocolate chip cookies. Off the wall, he’s reading, writing, or watching movies. He’s also learning piano—because fingers need challenges on and off the wall!

Jeff’s climbing philosophy? “Jugs and brute force.” Off the wall, he sings in a choir of bearded hipsters and dreams of completing his Masters in Icelandic literature… someday. His favourite animal? The mighty bison—strong, stubborn, and totally unbothered.

Freya climbs with the power of someone who's been doing it for 10 years (because she has). Her favourite animal is a cow - not for the grazing, but for the stubborn determination. When not sending, she's either napping with the intensity of an Olympic sport or explaining why red is clearly the superior colour.

Stella is a bouldering enthusiast who thrives on connecting with climbers worldwide—she loves exploring gyms abroad to soak up different climbing cultures. Off the wall, she’s crafting handmade clip-on bone earrings, rolling D&D dice, or snacking on oranges. Bonus facts: she's got a soft spot for bats and lichen.

Heather boulders like a ninja and snacks on Twin Snakes (the gummy, not the reptile). Her happy place? Squamish, where the rocks are tall and the air smells like victory (and pine trees). When she’s not climbing, she’s reading or whispering secrets to Frankie—her precious ball of white fluff that loves to make an appearance at the crag or in the boulder fields.

A slab specialist fueled by salted cashews and Cheakamus Canyon vibes, you can find Sophie painting their next masterpiece or on a hike when off the wall. Fun fact: their giant cat weighs a whopping 17lbs!

Rachel loves to climb slab and dance while reminiscing about the time a monkey stole her sandwich (a core memory). Her dried mango addiction funds entire grocery stores and when not climbing or dancing, she's debating whether monstera plants, peonies, or orcas are the superior muses. Her Pride and Prejudice love proves you can be both graceful and gritty.

Camile is a slab specialist who loves a fancy lunchable (charcuterie). She loves climbing in new places and spends her downtime painting, reading, playing D&D, or practicing yoga. Colour Crush: Chocolate. The colour, the food, the vibe.

Isaac climbs with the quiet focus of a stem-master—until you get him talking about his real passion: unabashedly loving "girly" K-pop. His happy place? Hive Surrey at opening—quiet and serene. Dark blue and green are his jam—like the forests he dreams of climbing in.

Anushika can't decide if she loves bouldering or sport-climbing more, but she makes sure to bring chocolate covered almonds to snack on no matter the climb. She also loves salsa dancing and going to local concerts. Bonus fun fact: she grew up speaking fluent Greek, but not so much these days.

Jillian despises slopers (they're just upside-down hugs gone wrong) but would wed crimps if allowed. Fueled by overpriced chocolate & post-Squamish sesh Alice & Brohm, you can catch her kiteboarding, crocheting, of fawning over owls off the wall. Grammar errors pain her so don't mistake "your" for "you're" around her!

Sophie has a love of stemming, the colour forest green, pikas, and sandwiches bigger than her forearm. When she's not sending on Skaha's gneiss walls, she's crocheting or catching an episode of Derry Girls. Fun fact: she can clap with one hand - a perfect skill for one-handed send celebrations!

Matthew is all about technical vertical climbs, seaweed snacks, different shades of green, and hummingbirds. His happy place? The cave at Hive Vancouver.

Malcolm is a dynamic climber powered by vanilla Starbucks double shots. When not coaching, he’s training calisthenics or reciting the alphabet backwards (yes, really). His favourite animal (the Portuguese man-o’war) reflects his love for the unconventional.

David is the master of cutting feet—both on the wall and in dance floors (allegedly). His climbing fuel? The finest No Name chips (because why pay for branding when you can pay for more chalk?). When he’s not defying gravity, he’s biking like he’s in the Tour de France (but with more snack breaks). Fun fact: His favorite book is No, David—which is either ironic or a cry for help. We’re still investigating.

Lola’s climbing style? Volumes. All the volumes. The more, the merrier. She’s been climbing for over half her life, at The Hive no less! She loves climbing in Squamish in any form, always with trail mix on hand.

Patrick boulders like some sort of climbing ghost - with chalk-smear grey hands (like his favourite colour). His basement blackberry wine is legendary among his peers (though taste-testing is at your own risk). When not crushing or fermenting, he's tinkering in his shed, building... something (we're still trying to get a sneak peek). His favourite read, World War Z, inspires his zombie-apocalypse training regimen. First rule: always have chalk.

Darwin is a sport-climbing devotee with a taste for adventure (and Cliff bars). The first in his family to climb, he’s passionate about sharing the sport. Off the wall, you can find him hiking, gaming, or napping.

An outdoor sport climbing enthusiast, Shiori's perfect day involves roping up at Skaha, with onigiri and donuts close by. Off the wall, she's playing volleyball, woodworking, or cooking from scratch. Fun fact: she once lived on a farm with 20 dogs, 4 horses, 2 pigs, and chickens!

Matthew is an instructor with a very specific passion: shrimp! He cooks, admires and dreams of them (fav colour: shrimp-pink). This unique passion is rivalled only by his enthusiasm for climbing, and he's sure to make your learning a blast.

Erika's 14 piercings jingle like wind chimes when she climbs (a built-in send soundtrack). She builds Lego between burns, and her love for sunflowers is rivalled only by of her love for Lord of the Rings (extended edition marathons count as endurance training, right?).

Stephanie is a tech wiz and believes overhangs are just upside-down slabs with attitude. When not on the wall, she’s hiking, trail running, or paddleboarding—basically, if it’s outside, she’s there. She's fueled by cucumber smothered in Tajín and a love for her favourite plant: lavender.

Cynthia loves bouldering (especially in Hueco Tanks) and is guaranteed to dance if given a beat. She's a lover of PBJ and The Princess Bride, and will beat you at foosball.

Patricia crimps so hard she becomes a mosquito magnet (unfortunate for her, great for climbing partners). A podcast connoisseur, you can find her fueling for her sessions with sushi, apples, and bananas (a winning combo). She's recently been fawning over Anuthuriums, and her favorite book features a boy, mole, fox and horse - which she insists is the ultimate climbing squad.

Tim is a crimp-crushing, dried-mango-munching, trail-mix-hoarding send machine! Off the wall, he's rolling D&D dice, slinging paint, flipping through Discworld, or cooking up a storm—a true display of versatility.

Alice is a lover of bouldering and rope climbing equally, but nothing tops a good session at Hive Surrey! When she's not climbing, she's working on improving her English and rewatching A Star is Born. She loves all types of plants and animals, but is especially enthusiastic about dogs.

Ethan brings a laid-back vibe to the gym, fueled by T&T BBQ pork buns and a love for indie films (The Worst Person in the World is his top pick). Left-handed and allergic to apples, when he's not on the wall, he loves going for long drives. His calm demeanor and technical focus make him a great instructor for climbers of all levels.

Alison dynos through climbs, and life, while enjoying a good chocolate. When not climbing, playing hockey, or unicycling (yes, really), she's debating LOTR lore or explaining why purple is clearly the most royal of colors. She secretly believes her unicycle skills and love for platypuses translate to better heel hooks.

Anthony once brought a cake up the Chief. Not a slice. Not a cupcake. The entire cake. (Priorities). He teaches climbing by day, forages blackberries by night, and dreams of the day his balcony blueberry plants finally produce enough for him to make a breakfast of champions. His ideal climb? A 5.12 with a Lord of the Rings audiobook playing in the background. “One does not simply walk into Mordor… but one can dyno into it.”

Grace loves vertical crimps and leaf sea slugs (the ocean’s most fashionable nudibranch). Her favourite colour is green, like the envy you feel watching her climb, and you can find her crunching on rice crackers to fuel her sends.

Thea climbs with the precision of a static old-school master and fuels up with peanut butter toast (sticky fingers be damned). Her ideal day? Reading, crocheting, or hiking. Purple is her power colour, and she admires chimpanzees.

Darren climbs slab with the focus of someone who's reading three books simultaneously (because he probably is). His "Glory to the platypus" mantra remains unexplained but respected and when not crushing, he's either debating cyan vs. teal or explaining how Kung Fu Panda is actually profound climbing philosophy.

Adam is a multipitch maestro and when he's not roped up, he's practicing martial arts, binge-watching movies, or nerding out over computers. He climbed for 20 years before finally summiting the Chief, proving that good things come to those to take their time! Oh, and he's obsessed with cats.

Jan can’t decide between sport climbing and bouldering, so he does both (and makes it look easy). When he's not training at Hive Heights or North Shore, he’s admiring fruit-bearing plants. Fun fact: Jan grew up learning five languages!
