AAI has made it so that you can help children in your gym — regardless of age — increase strength, gain confidence and conquer any obstacle you build.
Do you have preschool beginners? AAI recommends starting off with AAI Elite Kids Gym
The AAI Elite Kids Gym line of products is a favorite for coaches and teachers and children between the ages of 2-12. It is an essential developmental apparatus to teach beginner gymnastics while made of the same raw materials as AAI Elite products. With additional stations available, this modular circuit can be specifically designed to meet the needs of any type of preschool or recreational programs and space.
AAI’s Elite Kids Gym is the perfect place to start when a focus is on beginners.
Are your preschoolers ready to become Ninjas?
If your beginners are ready for their next challenge, consider upgrading to the NEW AAI Elite Kids Ninja accessories or the full unit. EKN allows a gym to either add attachments to the already Elite Kids System or to start from scratch with an entire EKN unit. By adding EKN accessories such as the floating plank, zig-zag steps or monkey bars, you can help your little gymnasts develop into little Ninjas.
Ninja-like obstacle courses provide just the right degree of physical challenge, problem solving, exploration, socialization, and fun. With Elite Kids Ninja, AAI has taken measures to give your preschoolers a chance to be Ninjas even before they are ready for AAI’s G2N! With a slightly smaller unit and easier attachments, your preschool ninja will be able to build confidence to conquer any combination unit put together. Your little ninjas get to experience fun exercise while learning new and creative movements. They learn, move and build confidence.
Another benefit of AAI’s Elite Kids Ninja is with so many different attachments, gyms can mix and match to keep the fun going, obstacles fresh and challenging for your athletes.
Little Ninjas not so little anymore?
Time for AAI’s G2N™ (Gymnastics to Ninja) System. G2N products are strong enough for adults, adaptable enough for children and unique enough for Ninjas. They are the right combination of equipment and curriculum to engage members without taking up permanent space in facilities or requiring big investments. The turn-key curriculum encompasses physical literacy and much more, while bringing a new revenue stream to facilities. The versatility of the equipment is good for schools, local gym clubs and even big box stores. Facilities can utilize the wall structure with multiple attachments or create their own customizable Ninja course from an assortment of different pieces.
Keeping your recreational programs full is the foundation to a healthy business but keeping them full all year long can tough. By customizing your own Ninja courses with mixing and matching individual pieces, paired up with our comprehensive curriculum, the possibilities are endless!
The interest in Ninja perfectly coincides with other societal changes such as an increased sedentary lifestyle, a decrease in active play, a reduction in physical education, and an increased reliance on handheld technology. Everything from focus on safety to dual working parents have contributed to children’s decrease in physical activity. No more can we just send them out to play, let them ride their bikes to school, or lead them in active recess or daily gym class. Television, video and movies have captured the attention of children with creativity and excitement. By making physical fitness creative and fun, we can win them back. We need to convince them that it is more fun to be the Ninja than to watch them.
The G2N™ challenges kids of all ages to be active, creative and skillful. You can call it “warrior”, “parkour” or “ninja”, but we call it fun! So, tell the kids to put down the video game and jump over the couch, because active kids are BACK with AAI’s G2N™ products!
