Ninja Zone FAQs?

NinjaZone Reminder: Dress Code

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 AND HEADBAND. 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.

NinjaZone Reminder: Tardiness

To ensure Ninjas get the most out of class, we appreciate on-time arrivals! NinjaZone classes focus on teaching manners and character traits, to allow them to develop into well-rounded individuals, including respect for time. Habitual tardiness disrupts class flow and impacts learning. We understand that delays happen, but we kindly ask for your help in minimizing lateness so we can better practice what we preach.

Co-Ed Classes

Our gym is now offering co-ed NinjaZone classes! Boys and girls will train together, gaining valuable skills in a shared environment. While each gender learns differently, we believe that by fostering collaboration and competition, every child can excel. Join us for an exciting, inclusive NinjaZone experience!
