Shauna Hylenski and her husband Bryan have been Longmont-based entrepreneurs since 2015, when they came to Colorado from South Korea. Bryan had there built a reputation as a world-class sport and mountain climber, and they came to represent a Korean climbing shoe manufacturer and built an import brand - HMH Outdoors. In 2017, they recruited their best friends, Mack and Heeran, and Shauna's big sister Heather and her husband Aaron, to come together to form the Climbing Collective, which opened in 2018. Today I’m joined by Aaron and Shauna to share the journey to this point, and the vision for the nearest years ahead.
The Climbing Collective now consists of three major properties: 1. Longmont - State of the art, 25,000+ sq. ft. roped-wall, plus a bouldering gym, and yoga and fitness. 2. Loveland - former Wooden Mountain bouldering gym, recently and happily merged to be part of the Collective. 3. Greeley - former movie theater in downtown Greeley, currently owned by Climbing Collective and under redevelopment plan. These properties together, and with their members, represent the most comprehensive climbing community in Northern Colorado!
This is a story of 3 couples, working together and letting it all hang out! Getting big bank loans to build leading edge climbing gyms, fostering community, and in 2024, they’ll be opening their 3rd location and hosting the Ice Climbing Championship at their flagship location in Longmont. This was a super-fun conversation, and I learned a lot - and I know you’ll enjoy getting to know - as I did - Shauna Hylenski and Aaron Tellier.
