This place is amazing! The workers there on the floor for open gym Gavin and another gentleman were AMAZING!!!! If I could give ten stars for Gavin alone I would. He was beyond helpful and patient with all the kids especially my littlest who is a ninja warrior super fan. We live in San Antonio and are already planning another trip just for this gym alone. Everyone had an amazing time! Well kept, super clean, amazing staff :)

We feel really lucky we found Coach Alyx and Coach Lulu with Austin Ninjas! We can tell they are vital to the program and are so grateful our kids had them as coaches. We have been recreationally going to Austin Ninjas for over 3 years now (weekly classes and summer camps) and have seen their confidence grow every season. Its a truly wonderful program for kids!

Austin Ninjas gym has become a go to spot for my 11 y.o son with his weekly classes and camps. This is the only place that got him interested in sport activities. Facility is well-designed with a variety of obstacle courses. Coaches are very engaged with children ( coach Logan is awesome! ), making them feel comfortable and encouraging them to try new things. The team is passionate about creating a positive and enriching experience for every child who walks through the door. Safety and cleanliness is a top notch. No wonder their weekly classes and camps are all booked way in advance.

Our 9 year old son celebrated his birthday at Austin Ninjas today. It was an amazing and well organized experience. Logan and the other coaches were great with the kids, and had plenty of activities for them to do. It was perfect from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. We purchased the private party with a coach. The kids climbed, jumped, raced, and competed against the clock for 75 minutes. Then, we had 30 minutes of pizza and cake we brought to celebrate. There were no bad moments with this birthday party. Kuddos to Austin Ninjas!!!! We cannot wait to try the Kids Night Out. Thank you for a great experience.

Place is clean, nice, good energetic staff for kids birthday parties. Kids had a blast and made me want to go out there myself. Lots of different types of obstacles to practice on, multiple sizes of the warped wall. Look forward to signing my kids up for classes. Update: been in classes for a year, the kids love it. Its great exercise, and makes them strong and confident.

Austin ninjas is an absolutely amazing ninja facility. They hold some of the best competitions that are very well run and have a good mixture of fun and competitive obstacles. Their coaches are very well versed in ninja movement and very safe too. They also change obstacles regularly which keeps it interesting and challenging on a week to week basis! Take your kids to this amazing facility and you won t be disappointed!!

Spend the time and drive into Austin for Ninja Nation. Their staff go above and beyond to interact with the public and kids... helping and coaching! Austin ninjas on the other hand is a joke. Today, the employees were clearly getting paid to sit around and visit and swap cell phones instead of helping kids during open gym. Meanwhile two girls at the front desk were kicked back with the feet propped up on the counter. How sloppy and unprofessional!

The facility and the coaches are nice. I went to an adult class but it was a disaster. There was a party event booked at the same time and rampaging groups of children took over all the platforms. So there was basically nothing for the adults that paid to have a class to use. The coach I had at first completely ignored me and gave zero instructions. Later I got a coach that was nice but he was struggling to manage an actual horde of children so I had like 3 minutes with him. Do not go here if you are an adult. This place is for mobs of children.

Austin Ninjas is unlike any other childs extracurricular in the Austin Area. Each member of the staff is an expert in what they do and it speaks volumes about their program that the same coaches that were there 3 summers ago are still supporting kids today. I imagine they treat the team the same way they do the kids, which is like family. Austin Ninjas is amazing for every child, but for parents of intense kids, its especially meaningful. Ill speak more to that later in the review, but first, the benefits for all kids. The coaches dont just build up the young athletes physically, but they build emotional resilience, grit, and social skills in every class. I dont think Ive been to a session where Alyx doesnt go to one knee to get on the same level as a child who is struggling psyching them back up or Nick redirecting a frustrated student with humor to an obstacle they are more successful with only to get them right back to the challenging one with increased confidence. I wish the approach used at Austin Ninjas was seen in all childrens activities and in schools. Its not an easy task and it takes time, but the results are clear within weeks. For parents familiar with The Nurtured Heart Approach or Conscious Discipline - this is what the coaches use. I dont think its training theyve received, but its the climate they have fostered in their gym through Alyx and Nicks leadership. Ok, parents of intense kids - this is the only after school activity my child has been able to participate in without discussions of it maybe not being a right fit. The very first class, Alyx noticed that my kid may need some different supports and came to talk to me about what I use successfully. If theres a noticeably tough day, Nick will come do an extra check in outside of his normal communication. At Austin Ninjas, you are going to experience a partnership that I havent seen anywhere else. My child has grown so much as a direct result of the care and support his coaches have given him. They are so good at what they do and they bring the joy they clearly exhibit at each lesson to your childs life. I could honestly wrote so much more about their impact on my family, but Ill stop here so the message isnt diluted. Go to Ninjas and watch your child thrive.

Austin Ninjas has meant the world to our family. Our 8-year old son has been coming here for close to 3 years (both the weekly classes and the camps) and the experience has been life transforming for him. Austin Ninjas not only keeps him strong and active with skills that translate to other sports and workouts, but it also teaches valuable life skills/lessons as well. The Ninja community is tight and extremely encouraging. One Ninjas success is every Ninjas success and they all build one another up. This is what I want my son surrounded with. Thank you Austin Ninjas for all that you do to shape and mold our younger generations.

*** Update: I appreciate the owners response but what she laid out just wasnt our experience, unfortunately - perhaps it varies a bit by coach. I watched not only my kids class but another class (that was physically closer to me so I naturally watched them) and there were 15 kids in each, give or take a couple. Perhaps kids were bleeding over into neighboring classes because theyre done so close together, but the coach clearly couldnt wrangle them all, in every class kids were playing/roughhousing while waiting for another turn, and contact is inevitable - theyre kids, especially the more energetic boys. Regarding the other front, it wasnt Intentional/physical contact/harm that brought on the discipline, at least not in our experience - it seemed like the coaches had quick (over-)reactions to help tame the kids. Im simply trying to help parents of energetic boys be aware of the real environment. This review pertains to their summer camps, I cant speak for classes that take place during the school year. Anyway, the summer camp classes are utter chaos - they place WAY too many kids in each class, and theres just the 1 coach watching 15-20 kids at any given time. The kids are mostly standing around while other kids do something, they have very little time of actually learning/doing, so naturally the kids play with each other during all the standing-around time. If kids come in contact with each other during this time Austin Ninjas has an extremely low tolerance for this and is very quick to put kids in time out then send them home, even though the kids can be just playing with each other. This seems to be an over-the-top way to handle Austin Ninjas inability to properly coach/monitor the kids, they simply put waaaaay too many in each class, but admittedly it greatly increases their revenue. So just consider this especially if you have an energetic boy that enjoys meeting/playing with other kids, but the facility itself is decent.

Austin Ninjas has been a game changer for my 12 yr old son. We ve been going to events, birthdays, etc since it opened and finally started doing lessons in January. Every coach we have come in contact with has been amazing (shout out to Ben, Logan, Nick, & Alyx who have all worked with him in classes). They are all athletes, kid-focused, and positive role models. My son begs to go to camps and extra gym practice. He has come so far in just a few months and was able to compete in the World Ninja League Championships this past weekend at Austin Ninjas. Jennifer Halla does such a fantastic job organizing events like this. We also appreciate Coach LuLu jumping in to coach him on his run. Keep up the good work! You guys are changing lives.

Wow! Thank you Austin Ninjas for an amazing experience for our daughter at WNL Tier 2 Worlds. We were so excited to share the gym with so many athletes from across the US and Germany! I can imagine how difficult it is to plan and organize an event of this magnitude, but Austin Ninjas nailed it. All events were on time and ran seamlessly. The Austin Ninjas coaches were amazing and supportive of all the athletes. I even witnessed them coaching athletes on the courses that did not have a coach present. Amazing attitudes, organization, and an overall wonderful experience for us. Thank you to the owner, Jennifer Halla, for putting in so much hard work to make the event successful.

We were there this last weekend, Saturday, April 1, and Sunday, April 2, for the WNL Tier 2 World Finals. It was an amazing event!! It ran on time, which is no surprise for Austin Ninjas, the staff was courteous and kind, and the athletes were fantastic!! I was able to watch any event I wanted too and the people were kind and would move if my son was competing so I could be sure to see well. It was absolutely amazing at how many people were able to move through the gym without feeling completely overcrowded. We always enjoy our time at Austin Ninjas and I can only hope that the Tier 2 championships will be there again next year!

We were there supporting friends who were competing in the Ninja Worlds championship last weekend. Very disappointing organizing. Poor planning and late execution. The gym facility is newer but the whole event lacks professional oversight. Having witnessed many competitive sporting events, we were shocked to see how a competition of this level was not better managed. There were also international competitors making this a Worlds event. What could have been a great opportunity to showcase this inaugural Ninja Tier 2 Championships is pretty embarrassing. Honestly, a local school soccer tournament could have done better. Lady owner incompetent and indifferent as well.

Im writing this in response to the recent negative review written by VD. My wife and I hosted the party of predominantly 5-year-old children that you and your son attended. As part of the party package there were wrist bands available to the adults so that they could be on the floor with their children. I shared this with other attendees as they arrived, but I failed to share this with you when we greeted you and your son. I like the policy of adults paying to be on the floor once they have signed the waiver. Safety for all of our children is a priority and this policy keeps adults off the floor who dont need to be there, especially when there are small people running around. I witnessed the moment when staff came in to speak with you. You and I were standing next to each other. I figured it was a private matter, but in hindsight I wish I would have gotten myself involved. I recall thinking Wow, thats really professional of Austin Ninjas to try to resolve an issue in the moment. I was pleased that they were so proactive. As a side note, to say that you were pulled out of the party is an exaggeration; I saw. The feedback we received from other parents about their experience at Austin Ninjas was overwhelmingly positive with many of them saying that they couldnt wait to bring their children back another time. If you paid for anything while at our party, please let us know and we will reimburse you through Venmo. I believe your one-star review for Austin Ninjas is misplaced. If anything, my wife and I deserved your one-star review as your hosts. We apologies that we werent more attentive to you and its a lesson for us when we host parties anywhere in the future.

Attended for the very 1st time with my 5 year old for a birthday party. I was not allowed on the floor with him to watch him unless I paid. He had already started climbing the rock wall and a staff member asked me to wait off the mat. I told her I wasnt just going to leave him especially with a lot of big kids running around. Having parents pay to watch LITTLE ones is absolutely ridiculous and a horrible policy. Great place if you have older kids, not for littles. Definitely will not be returning. Update: Just got pulled out of the party I was attending. Is there a Vanessa here? Yea, we heard there was problem or something that you were not happy with? Wow! Instead of saying please stop by the front desk so we can address the issue. Getting pulled out of the party to address my review and fustration....very unprofessional!
