Do your kids make your house feel more like an obstacle course than a home? Are they constantly launching themselves over obstacles, AKA your couch? Do they sprint down grocery store aisles, jumping, spinning, and kicking while yelling “Parkour!”?
ASI Gymnastics Has the Solution: Ninja Classes
ASI has just the class for your ninja to burn off all that energy. Our ninja program combines elements of gymnastics, parkour, and American Ninja Warrior to teach your little ninja skills, confidence, strength, coordination, tricks, and how to tackle any obstacle course.
What to Expect in Ninja Class
Our ninja classes include warp walls for your ninja to conquer, obstacle courses on the ground and swinging overhead for them to traverse, and trampolines to increase skill acquisition and air awareness.
Classes are 55 minutes of nonstop movement, action, and fun. Your ninja will run, jump, swing, and climb throughout the entire class. They’ll feel a surge of confidence after conquering the warp wall, eager to show their friends all the new parkour moves they’ve learned!

If your ninja can’t get enough of the action and is showing off moves to their friends on the playground, consider throwing a Ninja Party at ASI! Whether it’s a birthday, end of school celebration, or a fun weekend event, we’ve got you covered.

We’ll greet you at the door, set up your party, and parents can relax while our high-energy coaches take the ninjas through obstacle courses, teach them to climb warp walls, jump on trampolines, and learn exciting new parkour skills.

You’re at home wondering what’s something my preschooler can do? My three or four year old needs something to help them grow, learn, and fall in love with being active! Gymnastics is the perfect sport to introduce to your preschooler that will help them learn their body and fall in love with athletics at an early age! Here are five reasons why gymnastics is perfect for your preschooler.
Self Confidence: I am brave. I am strong. I am smart. Whether it’s jumping on the trampoline for the first time, braving the front roll, or being strong enough to hold ourselves up on the bar, we will celebrate every accomplishment your child completes in class! We create moments that can instill a positive sense of self in your three and four year old.
Coordination: Your preschooler is mastering running, jumping, swinging, and beginning to work on coloring and writing. Gymnastics helps build all of these skills. Gripping a bar will help with gripping a crayon and a pencil. Jumping on the trampoline helps develop body awareness. Walking on a balance beam improves coordination.
Preschool Readiness: In gymnastics, your preschooler will learn how to follow instructions, take turns, share, use their words to communicate with peers and adults, and transition to and from activities without a meltdown!
Friends: Those first few years can be tough to build a friend group for you and your child! Being a part of a regular weekly class can create a built-in friend group. Your preschooler and you can make lifelong friends just by being a part of a weekly gymnastics class!
Fun: Building self confidence, working on coordination, preparing for preschool, and making friends sounds like a lot of work because it is! Your preschooler won’t even know they’re learning because everything is done with an element of fun! We move at a fast pace through four 10-minute activities with a fun last five minutes at the end! They will be asking you, “Is it ‘nastics day?” all day every day!
Now, that you’re convinced why gymnastics is the sport for your son or daughter, now you have the task of looking for the right gym near you. Now, it’s our turn to ask you, Why not ASI Gymnastics?

School is back in session! Gone are the days of splash pads, adventure camps, and family vacations. Kids of all ages will now spend 30-35 hours a week in school learning and growing. One of the more challenging parts of school can be all the sitting the kids do.
On average, kids need at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily. Our gymnastics and ninja classes offer 55 minutes of nonstop fun and movement. Here are three benefits of adding gymnastics or ninja to your child’s after school activities.
Improved Self-Esteem and Self-Confidence: Doing their first back handspring. Being a part of a team. Ringing the bell! At ASI Gymnastics, we look for ways to boost your child’s self-esteem and self-confidence. Getting a new gymnastics skill or making your way through the ninja obstacle course is a big deal! Being the best listener and learning to follow the leader is equally exciting! We look for ways to reinforce the good. When you hear the bell ring, clap for the child! It’s building their confidence and self-esteem!
Better Concentration and Attention: Moving is learning! Gymnastics and ninja move the body forward and backward, spinning, and rotating sideways. All of these movements help improve concentration and attention.
Improved Mood: Having fun with coaches, making new friends, learning new skills, and moving all lead to improving your child’s mood. A positive mood leads to more productivity making homework easier! A positive mood also increases memory and attention span which means you might not have to ask your child three times to brush their teeth before bed! A positive mood leads to a happier, healthier child with a positive outlook on the world meaning they can conquer and do more!
Gymnastics in Paris is done. Simone cemented herself as the G.O.A.T. with another four medals. Team USA earned the Team Gold. Simone, Suni, Jordan, and Jade all earned individual medals. Beyond the medals, many moments captured so many fundamentals that we aim to teach our gymnasts at ASI.
Success comes in many forms. The obvious mark of success in Paris is a gold medal. The Beam Final showed us a different kind of success. Both Suni and Simone fell during their beam routines. When they fell, they lost any hope for an individual medal. What did they do? They got up and finished with grace, poise, and confidence. We love moments where we get to teach gymnasts that sometimes success means finishing what you started even if the result isn’t what you wanted.
Sportsmanship will never go out of style. In a world where athletes all have brands and success means more sponsorships and more opportunities, Simone and Jordan smashed that by bowing down to Rebecca Andrade when she took the gold in the Floor Final. When Jordan took bronze, Simone celebrated more for her friend than she did when she found out she was taking home silver. One of our biggest goals for our gymnasts is to instill the values of being a good teammate and celebrating others’ achievements.
Sports are one of the greatest things for children. Whether you end up a successful CEO, world-class athlete, or first-grade teacher, sports can create a foundation for anything life will throw at you. Sports teaches you how to fail forward, have work ethic, and be a good teammate.
“No matter your child’s age, it’s never too late to start their journey in gymnastics. Join us at ASI Gymnastics and discover how our programs can teach your child valuable life lessons while providing a strong foundation for any sport they wish to pursue. Sign up for a free trial gymnastics class today and see firsthand the benefits of being part of one of the best sports around!”
