our ninja program teaches participants how to overcome ninja warrior obstacles

by analyzing, approaching, and eventually mastering obstacles. Ninjas will learn techniques for climbing, swinging, agility, balance and strength, and propelling from one point to another to eventually conquer an entire obstacle course. The fun and challenging obstacles at New York City Ninja Academy mimic the movement and strategy of those on American Ninja Warrior. Discipline, focus, and behavioral development are emphasized to foster kids’ personal growth and self-improvement. Coordination and confidence increase with skill level, and obstacles always change for variety and continued challenges.

Paula D.

My child is growing in confidence and is working on his strength and stamina in a fun, motivating and social atmosphere!

Sarah U.

Wow! By far the best birthday experience my 3 sons ever had. Our instructors were amazing teaching 10 energetic boys! We will definitely be signing up for classes. Great facility too!

Kim K.

We celebrated my daughter’s 10th birthday at NY Ninja Academy. My 12 year old son and his friend joined in the party. Everyone had a wonderful time. The staff was great with the kids. On the way home the 6 kids I had in the car could not stop talking about the instructors and how much fun they had. Highly recommend.

Marlena B.

We love this place. The coaches are fantastic. My kid feels challenged and has learned new skills he can use both inside and out of the gym.

Debra F.

As if by magic, the owner has found a talented/kind group of coaches and staff. Their management of the kiddos during classes is an astonishing mix of teaching through encouragement, support and persistence. They never let a kid get discouraged – in fact, making sure every kid walks out of class with their head held high seems to be the priority.

Emma C.

Fun and engaging for kids and adults! Warped walls, balance obstacles, and a million other challenging stations to conquer! Like nothing else in the city!

Chris L.

This was a blast! My kids took part in an introductory Drop In class and loved it! Instructors were attentive, knowledgeable, and patient. Stressing safety and inclusion, my kids came away from this feeling empowered, and begging to come back.

James G.

The customer service is INCREDIBLE! Both via email with reservations and reschedulings, and the coaches are so nice! Great place to have a birthday party, even for adults!

Bryan J.

I love this place! I live close by so it kind of feels like a second home to me. Thank you guys for the good vibes and awesome obstacle courses. I highly recommend training here.

Holly V.

My son competes in the World Ninja League and NYC Ninja Academy is one of THE BEST gyms on the circuit! The gym, equipment, and amazing staff make this a favorite location to visit and definitely a highlight of our season!! If you haven’t been there you should check it out, you won’t be disappointed.
