Common questions about Big Ninjas in Clovis, CA.
My child finished Little Ninjas. Are they ready for Big Ninjas?
Yes. The Big Ninjas program is built specifically for ages 5 and 6 who have either completed Little Ninjas or who start with us at that age. The class is longer, the technique is sharper, and the expectations grow with your child.
Where can my 5 year old start martial arts in Clovis?
Big Ninjas at Guido's in Clovis is built exactly for that. Beginners are welcome in every class. The first few sessions focus on listening, lining up, and getting comfortable on the mat. From there, the technique builds at the pace your child can handle.
How long are the classes?
Big Ninjas classes are 30 minutes. Most families train two or three times a week to see the real change at home and on the mat.
What is the difference between Big Ninjas and the Juniors program?
Big Ninjas at our Clovis dojo serves ages 5 and 6. Juniors MMA and Juniors BJJ are for ages 7 to 12. Big Ninjas is the bridge. The curriculum gets sharper, classes longer, and partner work more involved when a student transitions into Juniors.
What if my kid is the high-energy one?
High-energy is common at this age and the dojo is built for it. Drills channel the energy, structure handles the focus, and the Black Belt Principles set the tone.

Patiently. Instructors stay calm, parents are welcome in the viewing area, and one rough class never gets in the way of a good next class.
