LIL NINJAS
Program Description
Lil’ Ninjas is the entry level to the all-new sport discipline inspired by gymnastics, martial arts, obstacle training, and freestyle movement.
Class goals: Listening skills, confidence, trying new things, working through frustration, and manners. We do all this through a strategic mix of skills and progressions.
NINJA BOYS/GIRLS
Program Description
Children learn a combination of flips, rolls, jumps, and kicks. Strength and agility are tested through obstacle courses and various training techniques.
A progressive level system evaluates and advances children in their skill and knowledge of core values as described in the NinjaZone creed. Children advance and learn at their own pace.
The levels of NinjaZone are defined by the headband colors of White, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple.
A student’s apparel is very important to ensure safety. We require a specific uniform for NinjaZone classes. Each class, your child needs to come prepared with their NINJAZONE SHIRT. Shorts or pants can be any type and should be dark in color, but we recommend a material that allows children to move freely. Jeans and school uniform pants are not permitted on the gym floor. If you have purchased but not received your NinjaZone uniform by your first day of class, a black t-shirt and black athletic shorts are requested.
A level up ceremony is for the advancement of ninja boys or ninja girls to move up to the next level i.e.; white to yellow, yellow to green and green to blue.
When Ninjas are ready to move to the next level, trainers will fill out an “Invitation to Mission Card.” Missions will be scheduled on at least a quarterly basis. At their mission, Ninjas will be evaluated on mastery of their skills and on The Creed.
Open Dojo is an organized ‘open gym’ time that combines gymnastics, martial arts, obstacle training, and freestyle movement, while also focusing on building character. Your child will want to run, have fun, and burn off energy at home. Why not send them to our Open Dojo, where they can redirect their energy into a truly positive focus!
Our Open Dojo is at 4:30pm-6:00pm on the third Friday of each month between October-May. It is open to all ninjas, those who are in our program and those who have yet to enroll in a class.
The Ninja Games are a competition where ninjas can showcase their skills, strength, agility, and creativity. With the combination of conquering an obstacle course and creating skill combinations, ninjas acquire points for each skill they attempt and complete. Showcasing these tricks allows ninjas to overcome their nerves, direct their focus, obliterate obstacles, and work to achieve their goals!
