Ninja Training for Agility

Coach Derek's experience in training the total athlete make our ninja program the best agility training in Kansas City. Students start with a crafted warm up that focuses on a skill or technique each week, such as proper squatting.  Classes then progress to 3-4 rotations that involve upper body strength, obstacles, balance, agility, and challenges.  Students in ninja training come for the fun and leave exhausted from their workout.  A true win-win for athletes and parents alike.  

What Do Kids Think About Ninja Classes? 

"I like ninja class because I can do the warped wall and I love doing the monkey bars. I like being challenged on the rock wall when we can only use one color.  I feel very happy while I am in ninja class and very tired after." - Grant, 10

Top Reasons to Enroll in Ninja Classes: 

  • Perfect for the kid that doesn't play sports - keeps them active and challenged
  • Builds upper body strength as a supplement to gymnastics
  • Additional training to help with other sports
  • Encourages youth to have an active lifestyle 

We hope you join us for youth ninja classes and agility training at Pinnacle Gymnastics!
