QUEEN CITY NINJA FLY KIDS - NINJA ACADEMY
SOME RUN, WE FLY!
Ages: 5 & up
Why Ninja?
Ninja has quickly become one of the fastest growing sports across the country for kids and adults. Imagine a workout that combines intense physical activity and endless challenge with enjoyment and thrill!
Welcome to QUEEN CITY NINJA.
Ninja provides an environment that embraces struggle and challenge while inspiring, encouraging, and teaching athletes to persevere. Unique to Ninja, our approach offers athletes the opportunity to creatively problem solve through challenges, leading to confident kids who can think through difficult obstacles in the gym and in life.
Progressive Lesson Plans
Our curriculum has been designed to progressively teach athletes how to swing, climb, jump, and balance safely and with confidence. By teaching ninjas to embrace life’s struggles (rather than removing them), we are building strength and independence that will last well beyond the gym.
Our youngest age groups follow our FLY Kids curriculum that introduces techniques and skills in Ninja and overall fitness. From there they can advance into our Queen City Aces program that pushes students while giving them the encouragement and coaching required for greatness.
In both Queen City Ninja & Fly Kids, students will face challenges that seem impossible. They may fail at obstacles more times than they succeed. They may be knocked down, burnt out, and pushed out of their comfort zone…and each time they will have a supportive Ninja coach encouraging and supporting them to get up and try again.
