Kickin', Flippin', and Trickin'
Bring your NinjaTrix Youth Sports Franchise to the Mat
High Potential. Higher Reward.
Kids just want to run, jump, kick, flip, and spin. That’s what kids do! NinjaTrix takes all that bursting energy and gives it some structure with a proprietary curriculum that gets kids fit, while teaching life skills parents appreciate. This is a high energy concept you’re going to feel great about bringing to your community.
After thorough training to open your Ninja Trix studio, you will:
- Offer safe, heart pounding, kid-flipping programs with a focus on movement and agility, tumbling, and obstacle course training, rounded out with self-discipline, confidence, and respect. Our long-term coaching and growth programs are different. They are specially designed so kids become dedicated participants vs. casual drop-ins, and become proud of the progress they make!
- Provide a fun place to party for kids and their families to celebrate birthdays and special occasions – a perfect way to supplement your sustainable longer-term program model.
- Promote excitement as you celebrate Ninja graduates, every three months at the completion of program levels, and make way for a new class!
- Manage a streamlined staff of coaches to cheer on and guide every Little (ages 4-6) and Junior (ages 7-12) Ninja that enrolls in the programs you offer.
Ninjas Need Space
You will need approximately 2,500 square feet of studio space, which includes 1,000 square feet of training floor space to give your Ninjas plenty of room to kick, flip, and trick in your youth sports franchise location! Plus, you’ll include an additional 250 square feet of party room space, with enough room to check families in and out of class.
We’ll guide you through the whole process. You’ll be amazed at how quickly your NinjaTrix training studio will come together!
High Potential. Higher Reward.
