KID NINJA:  6-8 year olds

Our Kid Ninja classes for 6-8 year olds are great for both new Ninjas and returners!!  We typically break classes into sub-groups, so we are able to group similarly experienced/skilled kids together... that allows us to create appropriate challenges for all levels!

We always seek to introduce some new obstacles into every session... so for those who are repeating (and we have a lot of repeaters!), no session is ever the same!  Our goal is always to advance each kid's skills from whatever is their current level.  If a kid demonstrates the ability to take on higher level challenges, then we will present those challenges to those kids!

In classes we focus on introducing, developing and advancing fundamental and beyond Ninja Fitness skills for our kid participants.  Kids of any fitness level will progress through weekly sessions (1X per week).   Classes focus on developing strength, agility, balance, coordination and confidence... all in a safe environment.  Those who have attended classes at Strive know that the 'Word of the Day' at Strive is always "Safety!"

KID NINJA:  9-13 year olds

We also offer Kid Ninja classes for new and returning 9-13 year olds.  In all our Kid Ninja classes we typically break classes into sub-groups, so we are able to group similarly experienced/skilled kids together... that allows us to create appropriate challenges for all levels!  Our goal is always to advance kids from whatever is their current levels.

Level II+ Kid Ninja:  8-13 year olds
A strong baseline level of skill/conditioning required for this class.  If you have not registered for Level II+ before, please contact Tim at tim@striveninja.com to help us ensure placement in this level is appropriate.  

Please note:  Due to maturity levels, size and some other factors, we rarely recommend a Level II+ class for kids younger than 8 years old.  For kids ages 6-8, our "Kid Ninja 6-8" classes offer age-appropriate challenges for all skill levels.  

In many ways, the curriculum for Level II+ Kid Ninja is similar to what we provide in our Kid Ninja 9-13 classes.  (So if you have a 9-13 year old, you should not be concerned about whether kids will receive enough challenges in "Kid Ninja 9-13" compared to "Level II+ Kid Ninja".  In both classes we will challenge kids.)

Level II+ Kid Ninja participants are expected to be comfortable with the idea of regularly doing higher level obstacles that might require jumping to obstacles and/or "laches".  (Laches are a skill where a ninja builds a swing from a bar/obstacle and then releases and flies through the air to catch a 2nd bar/obstacle.)

Like "Kid Ninja" classes, Level II+ CAN be (and is often) repeated... the class will provide opportunities to advance kids from whatever is their current skill level.  We always try to introduce new obstacles in every session... so there are always new challenges from session to session!

Level II+ available on the following days (click link to register):   

Tuesdays 5:00pm-6:00pm (7 week session)
