USA Ninja ChallengeTM has developed an obstacle course skills program that incorporates basic skill sets from gymnastics, climbing, cross training and track & field. There are also several gymnastics gyms in New England and PA that are currently involved with this program, which will create competitive opportunities in NH, MA, CT, RI, OH, PA, and CO. The program is designed to meet the requirement
s of a full physical fitness program for today’s youth. We incorporate standard gymnastics apparatus including rings, bars, balance beams and tumbling surfaces. Other specialized ninja training equipment is also used, such as cargo nets, traverse walls, slack lines, ropes and ladders. Each portion of every obstacle course also includes corresponding conditioning and flexibility stations. The desired result of this program is to improve children’s strength, flexibility and all-around athleticism. Junior Ninja (4-5 year olds) is a lead up to the full-sized obstacles that are used in the Ninja Challenge. 4 and 5 year olds develop their ninja skills with smaller, easy-to-negotiate obstacles until they are ready for the full-scale equipment.
