The first-ever dedicated ninja warrior obstacle training facility in New York City is set to open a second location at 340 Fourth Avenue in late February (official opening date TBD). The Brooklyn Ninja Academy is a 7,000 square foot facility bordering Park Slope and Gowanus where participants are taught how to overcome ninja warrior obstacles by analyzing, approaching, and conquering obstacles one by one, mimicking the movement and strategy of those on the popular NBC television show, American Ninja Warrior.
The Academy will offer after school and weekend kids’ programs for ages 6 to 13, training for adults of all skill levels, and advanced sessions to prepare athletes for competition. Ninjas learn new skills and techniques for climbing, swinging, agility, balance, and strength. Those new skills are then applied to master various obstacles with increasing difficulty. Participants will eventually learn to conquer an entire obstacle course. Ninja warrior training is a physical and mental challenge for all skills levels and an innovative approach to setting, achieving, and surpassing personal goals.
The first 10-week kids session begins February 28. They will also offer birthday parties and summer camp. Details here.
