Who are we?

Code Ninjas is the nation’s fastest growing kids coding franchise. In our center, kids ages 5-14 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 3D Printing, Robotics, & Microcontrollers. Kids have a blast and can’t wait to come back. Parents are thrilled as their children gain confidence and new skills including coding, math, logic, and problem-solving. 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.
