Class Experience
.Junior Ninjas is for those who are ready to advance from our ground floor Studio Pre-K Wigglers class or Kinder Wigglers class. Filled with fun agility skills. Kids will gain confidence getting upside-down: kicking to handstand, cartwheels, transitional movements, jumping skills, rolls, etc. We will still utilize all other events within the gym. Coaches will lead a heart-pumping warm-up game with friends, then practice traversing, and use equipment.
Notes
If your child is not in kindergarten, and is not yet 5, you may need to email us to register.
Class Requirements
- 5-6 years old
- If your child is under 5, or in pre-k, they must take Pre-k Wigglers or Kinder Wigglers class before enrolling in a Junior Flippers or Junior Ninjas class.

Loved:
The positive environment
Improvements:
It's overall very chaotic. The teacher doesn't have very good control of the 8 kids. It was 17 minutes yesterday into class before they started any real activity.

N/A
Improvements:
Needs structure and actual “curriculum” to follow. The “class” had a very thrown-together at the last minute feel.

Loved:
My son has struggled to stay interested in other sports, but he absolutely loves Junior Ninjas class. He's excited to go every week! He's become more confident in his abilities and more interested in different ways to move his body. Just an additional note, the price is great!
Improvements:
I would like to see a little more one on one time to make sure the kids are doing what they are supposed to. Example, for box jumps, make sure they are putting in effort to do the task right, instead of just throwing themselves on the box to complete the task
