Class Descriptions
Little Ninjas (5-6 yrs)

Emphasis is on empowering and nurturing students to develop great manners, respect, and self-discipline. We facilitate students to improve their physical literacy, co-ordination, agility, flexibility, strength and body awareness. The environment is non-competitive, inclusive and accepting, with consistent structure and clear expectations.
Students will be learning to communicate effectively and respectfully, while developing their voice or ability to advocate for themselves and others. Little Ninja’s learn to cooperate in small and large groups as they become more confident in how they interact with others. True respect first is developed through self-respect and confidence. Your child’s evolving positive self-esteem is our primary objective.
