Class goals: listening skills, fundamental movement, coordination, fine and gross motor skill development, body awareness, and our NinjaZone character-building component.

School age- Ninjas channel their energy through a fusion of obstacle training, martial arts, gymnastics and freestyle movement.
Children learn a combination of flips, rolls, jumps, and kicks. Strength and agility are tested through obstacle courses and various training techniques.
A progressive level system evaluates and advances children in their skill and knowledge of core values as described in the NinjaZone creed. Children advance and learn at their own pace.The levels of NinjaZone are defined by the following headband colors: White, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple.
Student apparel is very important to ensure safety, so 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.
Ninja Gear can be purchased at the Membership Desk at the Rock Island YMCA.
We strive for each Ninja to get the most out of their classes, and we appreciate those that make it to class on time! In NinjaZone class, we teach our students manners and important character traits to allow them to develop into well-rounded individuals.
If we are teaching the kids to respect each other's time, we would love to also see all of our Ninjas in class on time. It takes away from class when we have to stop and catch up late students. We understand things happen, but we have noticed habitual tardiness lately, and we appreciate that you will help us practice what we preach.
