Our Adaptive Ninja Class is designed to support balance, coordination, and sensory development through movement, play, and exploration. These skills are essential building blocks for motor learning and can even support the development of your child’s visual system. At Ninja U, hard work is always disguised as fun.

This 60-minute guided class is thoughtfully created for students with adaptive needs. The gym is closed to the public during this time to provide a calm, supportive, and welcoming environment where every athlete can move at their own pace.

Every student will have obstacle challenges tailored to their abilities — including fully adaptive options for athletes who use wheelchairs. Families are encouraged to share any specific needs or accommodations during enrollment so we can best support your child’s success.

If your student has a provider, therapist, or support person, they are welcome to attend and participate alongside them.

At Ninja U, we are committed to engaging and empowering individuals of all ages and abilities through inclusive, socially equitable, and innovative movement experiences — because everyone deserves the chance to feel confident, capable, and successful.

The World Ninja League (WNL) is one of the largest and most established ninja warrior-style obstacle course racing leagues in the world. We’re excited to be hosting a Season XI North Central Regional at Ninja U Cedar Falls. There are divisions for children starting at age 6 through the masters division (40+) and every age in between. All divisions will be included in this event. You must be qualified for regionals to compete.

This event is hosted by Ninja U in Cedar Falls, Iowa, and is sanctioned by WNL. The course is designed by Ninja U course designers and veteran athletes in line with the World Ninja League (WNL) for the best ninja experience possible.

WNL Regional: The top 16 of each division will advance to the WNL Finals. 

Every athlete will run two courses. Course 1 will be a Flow course. Course 2 will be a Challenege course. The final score will determine who moves on to Worlds.

Flow Course Rules:

Flow Courses are all about perfection! Athletes are judged by their ability to make it through obstacles in a given course and get from platform to platform without falling off the obstacle! Once an athlete falls off an obstacle, that is it! In this format, athletes are ranked by the number of obstacles they complete in succession. If multiple athletes are tied for the same number of obstacles in succession, the athlete who completes those obstacles faster will be ranked higher!

Challenge Course Rules:

Athletes are allowed to retry two obstacles per Challenge Course. However, athletes may only retry a failed obstacle one time. The athlete must complete the failed obstacle on their subsequent attempt to progress through the course. Once the athlete has used up their 2 retries or fails a retry attempt, the run is over.
