Our Ultimate Goal and Vision

ALLCLIMBERS began with a passion for helping people with disabilities and those in recovery. Our goal is to enable people who might not normally try climbing experience the joy that it imparts. Allclimbers provides free or discounted climbing, along with instruction and equipment, to help people find a new sense of identity and a new source of mood elevation.

Terri Lykins, RDN, LD, CD

Founder and Executive Director

Terri is a registered dietitian with thirty years’ experience in the recovery community, and over twenty years of working with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to stay fit and healthy through nutrition and exercise.  Through The Phoenix, an organization that teaches sports to people in recovery, she discovered the benefits of rock climbing while she was living in Boulder, Colorado, in 2016.  She wanted to bring the adventure home to Louisville, Kentucky and help people in recovery, and people with disabilities, to experience rock climbing and discover the benefits of elevating our dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and other healthy natural brain chemicals that give us emotional and physical peace, joy, and well-being.
