I can't say enough positive things about Traverse and the people who work there. My 11 year old daughter has been going for almost a year and a half and loves it. I highly recommend this gym for any parent with an active girl. This is a gym where girls can thrive alongside boys as equals.I agree with several other reviewers that the gym is clean, well run, has professional equipment which is expertly maintained. And that the owners are themselves Ninjas and can be found in TV episodes adds plenty of cred.But what is really the very best thing about Traverse is the way Alex creates good culture and the way he manages the Team. When you move beyond classes and join the Team, it's like a whole world opens up. There is space for achievement and the 4 principles are a magnificent practice for kids: Positivity, Persistence, Professionalism and Passion. Clearly the coaches have put a lot of deep thought into those principles and I've seen many Zen master style teaching moments happen (without being cheesy or overbearing). Alex even mediates when the kids get into conflict with each other and brings them into a state of mutual respect.If I could give 6 stars, I would.

My son is enjoying the ninja classes. Lots of ventilation and masks - seems like they're pretty cautious about Covid.

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE PLACE FOR KIDS!Our 8 yr old is a few classes into his first course at this beautiful ninja fitness gym. The humongous gym space is full of clean, professionally built Ninja Warrior obstacle equipment. The owners are veterans of the real hit TV series and it really shows. These owners are the same instructors giving the kids very personalized instruction combined with really powerful lessons in perseverance. Trainer/Owner Alex is really great with children.One of the best parts is that the gym is so family friendly that parents can sit and watch or they can just drop off or they are free to run around and use all the gym's facilities while kids are in class. In addition to the huge obstacle course they built, they currently have hanging silks as well as a huge rock wall and giant trampoline pit on the way. It's really a fun fitness playground for the whole family.
