New ninja challenge gym opens in Bonita Springs

BONITA SPRINGS (WINK) — USA Ninja Challenge recently opened its new Bonita Springs location at 9606 Bernpine Court, bringing its youth-focused ninja training program to Southwest Florida. The gym officially celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon cutting in August.

The gym is designed for kids and teens ages 4 to 17, with classes broken down by age and skill level. Kids can work their way through obstacles including climbing walls, monkey bars, balance beams, jumping platforms, ropes, cargo nets, traverse walls, slack lines and the famous warped wall.

Classes are more than just running through an obstacle course. Coaches work with kids on strength, agility, coordination, balance and problem-solving while helping them build confidence as they learn new skills.

The youngest participants can start with age-appropriate movement and balance activities, while older kids and teens can work on more advanced obstacle skills, upper-body strength and speed. The gym also offers homeschool classes, camps, clinics, special events and ninja-themed birthday parties.

Owner Anna Wiggins said this is a place where all kinds of athletes are welcomed, " We get a lot of kids here who don't fit into the traditional sports mold. Here we accept them."

For families looking for something beyond traditional youth sports, USA Ninja Challenge offers a chance for kids to compete against themselves, learn at their own pace and, of course, have fun.

USA Ninja Challenge Bonita Springs is located at 9606 Bernpine Court, Suites 111 and 112.
