NINJAZONE BABY NINJA
Baby Ninja is the newest class to hit NinjaZone! In an organized, yet playful structure, this parent and tot class is the perfect way to socialize your child, allow them to learn and understand what it means to follow instruction, and of course, get them moving! These classes follow our Ninja theme (of course!), and the skills required to master the course include fundamental movement, coordination, fine and gross motor skill development, and our NinjaZone character-building component. Baby Ninja allows your child to play, have fun, bond with their Ninja grown-up, and learn body awareness. Baby Ninjas will be introduced to simple vocabulary, color words, numbers, and more! Baby Ninja is for stable walkers through age 3. Baby Ninja classes prepare your child for the next phase of Ninja Sport, so by the time they are old enough to enroll in Lil’ Ninja classes, they’ll be ahead of the game!
