Class Experience
Ninja in Training is a high-energy, freestyle movement class. Coaches will focus on safety, agility, strength, balance, and basic tumbling. Ninjas will begin with a heart-pumping warm-up and strength-building cooperative game with friends, then practice jumps, obstacle courses and parkour elements. We will end with a mindful cool down.

Kids had fun
Improvements:
This is our second year in this school but the kids never stretch and don’t get more flexible Really wish that more effort was made to increase flexibility . Also the instructors don’t insist on exercises being executed correctly

This is a great opportunity for kids to move their bodies and challenge themselves with more difficult moves
Improvements:
I think the teacher could provide a little more specific instruction for the various activities and help kids with form a bit more.

My children move free around the place, discovering what to do with their bodys and following some instructions
Improvements:
My children waited almost half an hour outside the playground or gym. The teacher never asked them to get in. We announced them 20 minutes in advace to make sure that they will enjoy the full time. In total, they waited about 50 minutes and partcipate in the class for less than 30 min.
