Little Ninjas

Growing kids through martial play

Little Ninjas is the brainchild of Sensei Zoë, a sensei and mom who saw a desperate need for a physical activity with the benefits of karate, but adapted to benefit smaller kids in their vital physical development. Little Ninjas is a movement education program with its roots in karate and physical education, adjusted for the very youngest students. Taking out the pressure of gradings and structured classes, pre-schoolers gain the benefits of martial arts training in an age-appropriate format.

​

Open to 3 - 5 year olds (ideal for those dojo siblings who can't wait to join the dojo!)
