Insider tips
- Be prepared for inconsistent enforcement of rules, especially regarding footwear (monkey socks vs. street shoes); bring 'monkey socks' just in case, but be aware others may not follow the rule.
- Maintain high vigilance and actively supervise your own children, as staff supervision can be minimal and other children may run wild or cut lines.
- If interested in a more structured experience, consider enrolling your child in the 'ninja program'.
- Inquire about group discounts if attending with friends or a larger family group.
- If attending a birthday party, be aware of the potential for chaos but also dedicated staff who may step in to help children on courses.

What parents say
"I brought my niece and nephew (6 and 8). It was understaffed with kids running through obstacles and cutting in front of others. I was told I needed monkey socks to walk around but there were plenty of people in their street shoes on the carpet and food/drinks being carried around. Don’t have rules if you’re not going to enforce them. The kids did have a fun time."

"I'm really glad we started this ninja program a couple of weeks ago. It's nice they also have parents' night out on Fridays, too. This place seems like a lot more than what I saw when I went for a birthday party. The coaches really invest in the kids. I love the feeling of being a chimpanzee swinging around. Wonderful workout :))))"
