My daughter and I got into this a couple of years ago, and our love for it is still going strong. This is one of those simple, yet incredible places where you immediately feel comfortable even though you might be heading into entirely uncharted territory for yourself.
If you are a beginner, they aptly take you under their wings and belay you (support you with a harness to prevent you from falling if you slip) as you embark on this new adventure. If you are an experienced climber you can get certified to belay with a friend, and they also most certainly have walls that will challenge you.
The cost is reasonable ($17.50/person for non-members, with a minimum of two climbers, belay provided), it is a great work-out if you push yourself. I find that rock climbing is one of those activities that occupies your mind while you are working on your body, and therefore is a real break/escape from the other things in life.
If you need them to belay you, book your visit ahead of time.

If you don't live in Montreal, I'm sure you can find a great indoor rock climbing place near you.
Try it. It's a blast!
