NO SCHOOL. YOU STILL HAVE A DAY TO PLAN.

Camp should solve the school-break problem.

A teacher workday does not automatically turn into a day off for everybody else.

Octo Ninja runs indoor kids camps throughout the year during major school breaks and select days when Austin-area schools are closed.

That might mean one camp day when you need it, several days during a school break or an eligible full week when the calendar calls for something bigger.

01

Drop them off.

Full-day programming gives parents an actual school-day solution.

02

Let them move.

Obstacles, games, skills and challenges give all that school-break energy somewhere to go.

03

Pick them up happy.

The goal is a day that feels like something your kid got to do — not somewhere they had to be.

PLAY LIKE A KID. TRAIN LIKE AN ATHLETE.

A full camp day needs rhythm.

Kids need movement. They also need variety.

Campers rotate through a mix of obstacle time, coached skills, games, group challenges, free exploration and lower-intensity reset periods.

Good coaching can live underneath a day that still feels completely like camp.

MOVE

Use the whole body.

Climb, swing, balance, jump, grip, crawl and move through real physical puzzles.

LEARN

Practice makes progress.

Coaches introduce techniques and age-appropriate skill progressions.

PLAY

Let camp feel like camp.

Games and exploration give kids room to invent, laugh and play.

CONNECT

Find your people.

Group games and team challenges make the gym a social experience too.

RESET

Every hour doesn't need max effort.

Food breaks, creative activities and quieter blocks keep a full day sustainable.

OCTO CAMP Practice Makes Progress.
FIRST-TIME NINJAS WELCOME

Your kid does not need to arrive “good at ninja.”

Camp is a place to discover what they can do, not prove what they already know.

A first-time camper can work on basic movement and approachable obstacles while a more experienced ninja works on harder variations.

Different ages, confidence levels and abilities do not need to progress at exactly the same speed.

THE PARENT SIDE OF CAMP

The details that make the day easier.

Fun matters. So does knowing what time to arrive, what to pack and whether lunch is already handled.

01

Full-day drop-off

Most full camp days run approximately 8:45 AM–3:00 PM.

02

Flexible booking

Many camp sessions offer single-day registration, with full-week options during eligible breaks.

03

Indoor predictability

Austin heat, cold and rain do not determine whether camp can happen.

04

Extended care

Eligible camp dates can extend supervised pickup until approximately 5:00 PM.

05

Lunch + two snacks included

Current full-day camps include lunch and two snacks, so there is one less thing to pack before drop-off.

06

Authorized pickup

Campers are released only to approved adults. Keep pickup information current before camp.

EXTENDED CARE $35 / DAY
NEED A LATER PICKUP?

Keep the ninja going until 5:00.

Extended care is available on eligible camp dates and should be reserved in advance.

$35/day · $100 for an eligible full week

FROM AUSTIN FAMILIES

The progress parents notice outside the gym too.

Camp should be fun while they're here. The best reviews are the ones that tell us what happened after pickup.

★★★★★
“My son was nervous his first morning — refused to get out of the car. By Wednesday he was begging to go back and asking to sign up again. The coaches are genuinely great with hesitant kids.”
Priya M. Summer camp parent · Round Rock
★★★★★
“We sent both kids for three weeks this summer. The staff remembered their names on day two. Organization at pickup is clear and fast. Lunch included made the whole logistics so much simpler.”
Todd & Carrie F. Summer camp parents · Cedar Park
★★★★★
“My daughter came home exhausted and happy every single day. She slept better that week than any other week of summer. The coaches kept a real mix of structured and free time — that's hard to do.”
Denise O. Summer camp parent · Pflugerville
FIRST CAMP?

Nervous kids belong here too.

They do not have to leap out of the car yelling “NINJA!” for camp to be a success.

A new building, new coaches and a room full of kids can feel like a lot at first.

Some campers need a few minutes to watch. Some want to know exactly what happens next. Some need an approachable first challenge before they're ready for something bigger.

If your child is feeling hesitant, tell the team at check-in. Helping a camper understand the space and find a comfortable way into the day can make a big difference.

Confidence can start quietly. Give them room to find their flow.

NINJA CAMP FAQ

The questions parents ask before camp.

Ages, school holidays, lunch, first-day nerves, extended care, pickup and everything else that determines whether camp actually works for your family.

CAMP BASICS
What kinds of kids camps does Octo Ninja offer in Austin? +

Octo Ninja offers indoor ninja camps throughout the year, including Summer Camp, Spring Break Camp, Winter Break Camp, school-holiday camps and select single-day camps when Austin-area schools are closed. Available dates change throughout the year.

What ages can attend Octo Ninja Camp? +

Octo Ninja Camp is generally designed for kids ages 5–12. Activities can be adjusted for different ages, experience levels and abilities. Check your specific camp listing for date-specific requirements.

Does my child need ninja experience? +

No. First-time ninjas are welcome. Beginners can work on foundational movement and obstacle skills while experienced campers take on harder variations.

Is ninja camp good for a kid who isn't very athletic? +

It can be. Ninja combines movement with problem-solving and gives kids different ways to participate. Campers do not all need to complete the same obstacle at the same level. Coaches can help children find challenges appropriate to their current confidence and experience.

Is Octo Ninja Camp indoors? +

Yes. Camp takes place inside Octo Ninja's indoor, climate-controlled obstacle gym in Austin, so the camp day does not depend on Texas heat, rain or cold weather.

How is Ninja Camp different from Open Gym? +

Open Gym is a shorter, self-directed visit where participants explore the obstacle course at their own pace. Ninja Camp is a full-day, drop-off program that combines coached skills, obstacle time, games, group challenges, breaks and additional camp activities.

SCHOOL BREAKS & SCHEDULE
Does Octo Ninja offer camps when school is closed? +

We monitor major local calendars including Austin ISD, Round Rock ISD and Pflugerville ISD when planning many camp dates.

Can I book just one camp day or do I need a full week? +

Many Octo Ninja camps offer single-day registration. Eligible multi-day camps may also offer full-week registration. Current options and pricing appear in the camp registration system.

Extended care is available on eligible camp dates and can extend pickup until approximately 5:00 PM. Current extended-care pricing is $35 per day or $100 for an eligible full week. Extended care should be reserved in advance.

Can a school or group request a private camp? +

FOOD, SAFETY & PARENT LOGISTICS

What should my child wear or bring? +

Campers should wear comfortable athletic clothing and clean, secure athletic shoes with good traction. Bring a refillable water bottle and any required medications or camp-specific supplies listed in your registration information.

What if my child is nervous about camp? +

First-day nerves are normal. Let the team know at check-in if your child is feeling hesitant. Coaches can help them understand the space, learn the day's routine and begin with challenges that feel approachable.

Can Octo Ninja support allergies, medications or other camper needs? +

Provide relevant allergy, medication, health or participation information during registration. If your child has a significant allergy, medication requirement or other need that could affect camp, contact Octo Ninja before the camp date so the team can review the situation with you.

How does authorized pickup work? +

Campers may only be released to individuals authorized for pickup. Authorized adults should be prepared to show valid photo identification when signing a camper out. Make sure anyone who may need to pick up your child is included in the authorized pickup information.

How much does Octo Ninja Camp cost? +
