Felton Ninja Academy is awesome. Our daughter (Anna) has been coming since she was 3. Our son (Jireh) will start being a Little Ninja soon! We hosted our daughter's 5th birthday party here too. Coach Felton is an awesome fighter and teacher. He has a gentle, and patient, heart for kids. Your child will learn about fundamentals, body mechanics, respect, healthy self challenge (kinesthetic learning, progressive higher jumps, balance beams, etc.), and have a fun time! Coach Madison, Josh, Mike, and the whole squad are awesome too. They create a nice community for the kiddos and adults. The music selection is kid friendly too - you might find yourself bobbing your head or dancing like me. Haha. There's also a martial arts and adult training here too! Lastly, they take Charter funds! Keep up the great work! Albert read more

We've tried a lot of different organized athletic programs over the years -- from gymnastics to other parkour-style classes -- but Felton Ninja has been a complete game changer for my son. At other places, he often felt like he couldn't keep up or just got bored. But here, he's found confidence like I've never seen before. The coaches keep the kids moving, engaged, and constantly learning new skills. Coach Felton does an incredible job helping the kids build real confidence and making them want to participate and improve. Since joining, I've seen tremendous growth in my son's athleticism, motivation, and self-belief. He's proud of what he can do, and he looks forward to every class. Coach Felton explains what's expected in a way the kids understand, then supports each one so they can succeed. I can't recommend Felton Ninja enough -- it's been such a positive, empowering experience for my child read more

I was today at this place 2 times in a day for classes with my 2 grandkids, different times same place, the teacher is so good since we get in here recognized my kid and mentioned his name, he invited him to warm up and start the class without hesitation, the place is not huge but is very organized and all the tools they need aligned for section when needed. I got impressed with the staff girls they help a lot to the kids with kindness. My kid is afraid to do some exercises but Mr Felton is wise because he reinvent what he can do to replace the exercise and make him feel good. At the end he provides hand sanitizer to everyone and a sticker so they can feel appreciated The second time an hour later was the turn for my granddaughter and new staff was there to support them. Only one from previous class was there I was glad because she is a sweetheart and help my kid and later my granddaughter, the teacher is so strong, energetic and using skills at the kids level. At the end he was preparing another class, if you want a great place and loving people working with your kids, this is the place, 5 stars definitely because of Mr Felton dedication and passion for his legacy. read more

I have been bringing my 3 kids (7,6,3) here for about a month and a half and we could not be more pleased. The staff is great with the kids; they teach rather than tell (if that makes sense) the kids what to do. There is structure and discipline. The coaches don't take any but do it in a very professional, respectful, and nurturing manner. The $ value is undeniable. Great return on investment. read more

This place looked like it was for little kids, so I decided to bring my son in. They had me confused with someone else but let him try anyway. Within the first 10 minutes they had him jumping over some boxes without any direction. He ended up falling and hitting his leg on one of the obstacles. The coach wasn't looking when he fell, but somehow told him that he's fine and should keep going. He cried a little but finished the class. I saw his leg later with a massive bruise. Definitely not going back. read more

We took our 6 year old son to the ninja warrior parkour class today and he had the best time! The music was great, the atmosphere was amazing and the coaches were so friendly, kind and extremely helpful through each obstacle course. I really enjoyed watching all the kiddos, they were so enthusiastic! The class went by so fast but you can tell from their faces that they loved and made the most out of every single minute. I highly recommend this place for your children, they will love it! read more

Five stars just aren't enough -- this gym needs 10 stars! My little girl loves every class she's attended. She looks forward to every class each week. Every week there is a different circuit/course for the kids to do. Coach Felton and his entire team are engaging, energized, motivating and great with all the kiddos. The team makes sure the kids are safe at all times, especially with rope swings and the trampoline jumps, but, they ensure the kids having fun while being safe. I have seen a 100% improvement in my daughter's balance, coordination, and eagerness to try more difficult challenges even at the playground. We love Coach Felton and the whole team! read more

We love this place! amazing coaches and classes! My 3.5 yo boy loves his parkour class

We absolutely love this place. My son was almost four years old and was very quiet, timid and got embarrassed quickly. When he went to a free trial class in October 2022, we could see him changing just from the first class. The way they encourage him made him feel confident. Not only was he feeling more confident but he was also working on his motor skills which I didn't realize he was lacking until he took this class. Haha! Coach Felton is great. He keeps the little ones going so they don't have the time to goof off. He's also very focused. It's a very encouraging atmosphere and he keeps his eyes on the kids while they do obstacles so they don't get hurt. So what actually pushed me over the edge to commit to ongoing classes right away? It was a gentlemen who I call the assistant coach there. He is just spectacular. He's so gentle with the kids and you could tell he naturally loves kids which makes a huge difference on how my son feels. He smiles and chuckle at the kids sometimes especially when they trip or something (probably cause he thinks they're adorable) and I think that makes the kids not feel so self conscious. It's rare to find people who are very good with kids and he's a natural! My husband wasn't there to witness this guy but I told him about him when I went home and when he came the next time, he totally agreed with me. I didn't even mention it again and he brought it up and said the guys is so sweet and gentle with the kids. We also had both our kids birthday party there in December and all the kids had soooo much fun and everyone raved about it afterwards. Mrs. Felton is super sweet and great on emails, following up, and all the behind the scene stuff, Mr. Felton is a great coach, and the Assistant Coach is great with the kids. Such an awesome combination and great team! read more

Our son did the summer camp. He LOVED it! The coaches made him feel welcome and he enjoyed the obstacle courses. After the camp he asked to sign up for more classes. read more

Coach Felton is amazing with young children. He lets them push their limits and try new things, but he also keeps them safe while doing it. He is an engaging coach and has the perfect mix of authority & kindness. To top it off - he remembered all four of our kids names after only one lesson. Highly recommend! read more

My kids were trained by the Felton coaches for two years. They love the parkour and martial art classes. The coaches are amazing! Simply the best. Very patient with kids, always give them personal attention. I can see my kids improve and build confidence. The Felton coaches just opened their Dojo in this new location. The space is bigger, and has many cool amenities. Felton Ninja Academy offers classes for homeschool families as well. They also have classes for adults, too! read more

We absolutely love this place! We had been searching for a local martial arts place for our boys (5yr and 11 yr) and tried out 4 others before landing with Coach Felton and the Felton Ninja Academy. We love the options for classes, being able to bring both boys at the same time, and the curriculum that he uses. As a teacher myself, I love the way he instills confidence in the children and continues to make the learning environment fun and safe for this age group. It's been a little over two months and we plan to continue for the foreseeable future. Highly recommend the martial arts program! And if you really want to be impressed, watch the Parkour groups! read more

My little guy loves the class here. His balance and coordination has gotten so much better. Consistently impressed how good they are with goods. Would be an amazing place for a private birthday party, they change the obstacles every week and the kids love it. read more

My son just started ninja parkour at Felton's and we couldn't be more pleased. He loves Mr. and Mrs. Felton and looks forward to his class every week. They create such a fun environment with age appropriate physical challenges and I know my son will continue to grow in skills both physically and mentally. If you think this could be a good place for your kids I encourage you to try a free class! read more

Coach Felton is absolutely amazing!!! I have taken private classes with him and some with my kids. As a family event :-) He is very patient and breaks things down so you can learn easily. I started running Spartan races and asked him about private lessons. The best decision ever. I learned so much in a very short period of time. When I first started I could barely get accross one ring, after 8 months, I could go accross 5. He truly knows how to optimize time in training. My kids love his classes as well. read more

I can't even begin to explain how amazing Coach Felton is, his gym and his whole staff! This place is truly amazing! I tried another parkour place in the area and Felton Ninja Academy is hands down real and legit. Coach Felton and his other coaches really value safety, developing skill and confidence. We have been coming once a week for over 6 months now and it has been one of the best investments for my kids. Both of my kids confidence in everything has sky rocketed, even their academic studies have gotten easier. We're homeschoolers so we are often on the move in nature and leaping from trees and walls, but with Felton Ninja Academy they have learned ways to make sure they know and understand how to land to protect themselves from injuries. Their body awareness and abilities have also bloomed in so many ways. Coach Felton is extremely gifted with getting kids to feel safe and have fun in the gym. My kids were so nervous on their first day and at the end of their first class they couldn't stop talking about how much they loved it. I have seen Coach Felton countless times welcome new kids into the gym who may be shy. Within minutes he has them running obstacle courses and building confidence. His ability to see and understand what every kid is doing in the gym is almost Jedi status. He also always has enough coaches for the class and it feels like all the kids get attention with their form and skill. My kids wish they could go everyday to Parkour. When they wake up on Parkour days they get dressed in their parkour tshirts and can't wait for the afternoon. This place is a complete gem! Things that stand out: * Amazing and gifted Coach Felton and other coaches * Individual attention * Focus on safety, skill and confidence * Takes homeschool funds from our charter school with ease * Feels like a community * Noticeable level of increased confidence and skills in my kids * Clean and beautiful gym (including the lovely clean fresh bathroom) * Huge variety of obstacle set ups * Tons of parent seating right in the gym so you can have a front row view * Air conditioning when needed * Very accessible and easeful scheduling online app/platform * Very easy onboarding and sign up (Christine who runs the back office operations is AMAZING!) * Right next to tons of food to pick up after and take home! My Key Takeaways: * All kids who are able should do parkour with an awesome coach like Coach Felton * Parkour is more than just parkour it affects your whole life read more

Fun place for kids. All ages included. Also really Love their homeschool options. Would recommend to all!

New equipment, motivated environment, Air conditioned, caring Coaches, good location.

My son has been doing teen parkour and absolutely loves it. He is doing it for cross training for his hockey. His hockey coaches all loved this idea. Mr. Felton teaches the teens how to do things without injury. He gives great direction and takes the time to help each student with their individual needs and corrections while they are all absolutely having a blast. We love Felton Ninja Academy. So nice and clean (with AC) and just overall wonderful people. read more

I think Parkour is a natural extension of what a lot of kids naturally do - run, jump, climb, etc. My son absolutely loves parkour and loves training with Mr. Felton. Mr. Felton is both motivating and patient at the same time. Ms. Christy is really great too. They both have a great rapport with the kids. The respect flows both ways. read more
