My son has been coming to the 6-9 class for the past few months, and I honestly can't say enough…read moregood things about our experience. The owners are wonderful people with strong values, and you can tell they genuinely care about every kid who walks through their doors. It's not just about learning ninja skills. They intentionally invest in the kids' character too. At the end of each class they do a short character lesson on things like humility, obedience, and other life lessons. As a parent, I really appreciate that they're helping build both confidence and character. Within just a couple of weeks, I noticed a huge difference in my son. He used to be nervous about things like the monkey bars, and now he's climbing, hanging, and excited to try new obstacles. It's been really fun to watch that confidence carry over into everyday life outside of class. My daughter also did a trial of the Sidekicks class for 2-3 year olds, and she absolutely loved it. It was the perfect mix of movement, exploration, and play for her age. Both of my kids have tried gymnastics, and while they enjoyed it, this has been a completely different experience. The classes change every week, so they're never doing the exact same thing twice. The obstacle layouts are always different, which keeps the kids engaged and excited to come back. Between the monkey bars, running walls, balance obstacles, rope swings, and everything in between, there's always a new challenge. Another thing I really like is that the kids are evaluated on their skills and can continue progressing through different levels. It gives them something to work toward while still making it all about having fun. Last thing, they have huge windows for the parents viewing area and they have a play section for the siblings. Our 3 year old daughter has fun with magnifies and blocks while her older brother is in class. If you're looking for an activity that builds confidence, challenges your kids, and keeps them moving, I'd absolutely recommend USA Ninja Challenge. We've loved being part of it.

They are patient, kind, encouraging to the kids, and very communicative for parents. Membership is monthly. You get 4 or 5 classes per month (1x/wk) with two make-ups per month if your child is ever absent. It comes out to ~$36.25/class per child - very reasonable for a solid hour of exercise and fun. The facility is spacious and clean with plenty of parking. Our children LOVE going to Ninja class every week. I can't recommend this place enough!

This review is only for the party aspect. I booked Snapology recently for my daughter's birthday…read moreand I was overall really pleased with the experience. I submitted a request through the online form on the website and the owner Ella emailed me back. She walked me through the different party options as well as the available themes, and my daughter selected one. She followed up a few times leading up to the actual day. On the day of the party, Ella arrived early with one other instructor. For the Lego building session, they passed out a sheet with some builds related to the theme. I thought they were on the easier side for my daughter's age, but a lot of the kids chose to build their own ideas anyways. Then the instructors led the kids through some games that were also on theme, which was a pleasant surprise. At the end, they helped us serve the cake. One thing to note is that Snapology doesn't have a physical location so you have to provide the venue, although they offer a list of suggestions. Snapology was affordable and fun. It's a great addition to the birthday party scene!

We did move forward with the Toddler class, which I really appreciated that they offer a hands-off class. Every kid is different, and I feel great where the kids participate independently. It's been fun watching her grow in confidence while having so much fun. Her teacher does a great job keeping a room full of toddlers engaged, and the class has a predictable flow that's perfect for this age. It gives the kids structure while keeping it playful. Plus, seeing all the little dancers in their tutus and leotards is just adorable. I also love that they offer an optional spring recital, along with pop-up events and summer camps throughout the year. As a parent, I appreciate the open viewing area where you can comfortably watch class. They also offer makeup classes when possible (I believe on a case-by-case basis), which is a nice option with little ones. Just a heads-up that there isn't a parent restroom, but there's a Smart & Final right next door if needed. Overall, it's been a wonderful dance experience for my daughter. It feels like they're creating a fun, welcoming community, and I'd definitely recommend checking them out.

She sees the ones that aren't participating and gently tries to include them. It's a clean facility because it's new. I don't mind so much that my child is laying on the floor sometimes. They cover a lot during the interactive class, from games to story time to fun "drills" like hopping, galloping, skipping, etc. They have different props each class. Yes they do teach ballet, but definitely in a fun way that's engaging for the girls. They have special events like Elsa event that we did and it was enjoyable. I recommend those events too.

My niece (6 last summer) attended this camp last summer for a week, and didn't like it. Her…read moreparents hoped she would like it because it was very reasonably priced for Milpitas residents ($150 for 5 full days, can't beat that). Don't want to be unfair to this place since our experience was only for 1 week. And I'm comparing it to other camps that were more expensive. In the other camps, my niece got to know one or two counselors really quickly and bondedwith them and would talk nonstop about them. In this camp, it was babysitting, not a 'camp' feeling and the employees sort of hung out watching the kids but not participating or engaging the kids. They did not appear to have the maturity or job training that I've seen at other camps. On the good side, they played a lot of games outdoors and it included swimming at the Community Center. And, the price is right. I guess it's still a much needed inexpensive babysitting option for working parents.

This review is for the Spring Break day camp, which I figure is similar to the summer day camp, as…read morethey are held in the same location. The price seemed pretty good, at $180 for 5 days. The regrettable thing is that it seems they don't have the kids play any sports (aside from perhaps dodgeball), which seems ironic as it was held at a Sports Center. Most activities seem to be indoor, and it feels like it was mostly operated like a daycare center, with numerous free play periods, interspersed with occasional art activities. It should also be noted that the majority of participants were girls, and the activities probably reflected this. This was definitely not a great fit for my boy.
