Ninja Gym

New Equipment Coming 2025!

In addition to Copple Family YMCA and Northeast YMCA, we will soon be expanding Ninja Gym classes to Cooper YMCA! Along with the expansion of this program, we are excited to be updating this class by adding ninja warrior slanted steps to every class. These can be combined in a bunch of different ways to work on several obstacle course skills.

Class Description

Ninja Gym is taught by gymnastics instructors and concentrates on movement rather than mastering one specific skill at a time. Class time is focused in two ways: Skill development and free movement through an obstacle course. Skill development encompasses balance, speed, agility, jumping, stretching, and kicking. Obstacle courses utilize equipment such as ninja warrior slanted steps in varied configurations to allow participants to practice how to safely fall, roll, and jump onto and over obstacles.

What Should My Child Wear?

Your child does not need to wear a leotard to class - shorts and a t-shirt are fine. Most importantly, we want your child to wear something they can be comfortable and active in. It is best if your child is barefoot during class. Shoes on children can be too heavy while they complete skills, while socks alone do not provide enough traction.

Other Information

All YMCA Gymnastics classes are run through member branches. For information specific to each location, please visit with the front desk.

Please note: Class times are subject to change. A minimum number of participants must be met to hold the class.
