CHICAGO, IL – Kids from around the Chicago region will have the opportunity to train with 12 competitors from NBC’s hit television show, American Ninja Warrior, including several ninjas competing on the current Season 11. Ultimate Ninjas is hosting Pro Camp VI at its Chicago, Libertyville and Naperville locations between October 12th and 14th. Participants will learn from some of the best ninjas in the world and train on the same obstacles on American Ninja Warrior. The 2.5-hour camp will include time for participants to get autographs, ask questions about the show and watch the ninjas take on the obstacles.
“Ultimate Ninjas coaches and members are having a really exciting run on Season 11 of American Ninja Warrior,” said pro ninja Jamie Rahn, new general manager at Ultimate Ninjas in St. Louis. “So far on the show, eight of our ninjas made it through the City Qualifiers to compete in the City Finals! It will be so exciting for area kids to meet and train with the American Ninja Warrior heroes they’ve been watching on TV.”
