Who are we?

Code Ninjas is the nation’s fastest-growing kids-focused franchise. Our core promise is: “Kids have fun, parents see results.” We believe in these words so much that it’s written on the walls in our center.

In this program, 1st – 8th grade children learn to code in a fun, non-intimidating way – by playing and building video games they love as well as exploring other STEM technologies such as Robotics, & Microcontrollers. Parents are thrilled as their children gain confidence and new skills including coding, math, logic, and problem-solving.
