My recent visit to Jungle Movement Academy with my daughter, who is a fan of Ninja Kids, left much to be desired. Unfortunately, the experience fell short of our expectations in several aspects. First and foremost, the training personnel seemed disengaged and distant from the kids, which was concerning for their safety. There was a lack of supervision, and it felt as though nobody was watching over the children during their activities. Moreover, the overall security measures for the kids were inadequate. Nothing seemed to be properly secured, and the environment felt chaotic and potentially hazardous. One of the most alarming aspects was the lack of cleanliness. The facility emitted an unpleasant odor, and it was evident that proper cleaning and maintenance were lacking. It gave the impression that hygiene standards were not a priority. Adding to the dissatisfaction was the waiver policy, which seemed to absolve the academy of any responsibility in case of injury. This felt like a disconcerting lack of accountability for the well-being of the participants. Overall, our visit to Jungle Movement Academy was disappointing and left us with serious concerns about the safety and cleanliness of the facility. As much as my daughter enjoys Ninja Kids, I cannot in good conscience recommend this establishment to other parents seeking a safe and enjoyable experience for their children.

Although, totally out of the way for THIS Cedar Park Mama, I will say that it's a great spot to take your kiddos that love to climb and jump and parkour! It's huge and not too crowded like other places. There is one pretty serious parkour area right in the front that you'd let the older ones and experienced enjoy. But, if you have the younger, more timid, but super curious and wanna be like their bigs, go through the opening into the expansive gymnastics room. They've got a softer matted version of parkour that's above the main level (so it makes them feel cool they have to climb up on the big soft cubes to get there) and there are walls to walk, jumps into foam pits, and tunnels. My youngest really enjoyed it. The one star I'll remove is because my oldest (on the spectrum but high functioning) immediately noticed several hazards and decided to just try a couple things before staying safe and wishing his younger brother would just be ready to get out of there. LOL The thick dust in the air with the fans blowing wasn't great, there wasn't anyone really monitoring how the kids were behaving in the space, so my son witnessed a girl pushing a kid off a beam pretty hard and he was hurt. She attempted to do it again but a bigger boy came over and said something to her. The big one for my son was that the entry Parkour course had several places where you could get injured if you had jumped down from the monkey bars and rings (there were weights on bars laying right underneath). There were also areas where he said you jump down into nothing between the wall and the course. Im pretty sure he wasn't supposed to do that, but he was following a line of boys and that's what they were doing. LOL. All in all, we would return I think. I DO believe it is a great place for those who have experienced and "tough" kids. It'll wear them out and keep them entertained. ***Will also say that IF my kids were interested in making me drive here all the time, it would be nice if it were more catering towards the poor parents who have to be there for hours. More than 10 chairs, maybe in more than one spot for easy viewing of the action. The woman at the front desk was super nice too.

This place was all fun for the kids and the staff was helpful and friendly .Reason for the 4 star review is , some spots were not protected with rubber mats and had wood planks next to a ladder . No warning signs were also not there . It’s not about the law but the idea of a kid getting disabled or dying is just too much I would say to carry on for rest of your lives .. just think about it . Also my friend felt stuffy in a few places .. thank you

Best Place for my Kids to Grow and Learn! We love the coaches, but the pricing policy is very ridiculous. If you do not cancel AutoPay and do not use the period you paid for, no refund. Where is the common sense?

We have been at Jungle Movement for over 2 years and cannot say enough amazing things about it. Our kids (ages 7, 10, 13) LOVE it. The coaches are amazing. The atmosphere and culture that the staff has created is perfect for kids and families. They are watched over and well coached but also challenged to push themselves and learn new skills all the while having so much fun doing it.

This gym is soooo different....it's fun! Kids of all ages love it and adults enjoy it too. It is diverse and attracts those who want to get out of the exercise rut and are bold to try something new. You can train for American Ninja Warrior, you can learn parkour, you can train on the aerial silks & hoop, trampoline, gymnastics, rock wall climbing, and they even have Pilates! Literally something for all ages! Oh great place for birthday parties, bachelor parties, men's night out, etc. I know their staff work hard and the owner has such a good heart for healthy living and getting people fit. Drop in and ask for a tour!!

Love this place. Needed a new spot for Open play after Capital stopped hosting them. This place is better than Capital ever was, and much easier to get involved with the kiddos. My son loves it

Our family absolutely loves Jungle Movement. Whether it's camp, classes, the haunted house or a birthday party, it's always fantastic. The coaches are great with the kids, the facility is very cool and we can't wait to see what the expansion brings! This place is a gem!

The Jungle Movement Academy is THE best place in Austin and Round rock to go for any movement practice you can imagine! Josh and Matt are amazing people and leaders and they've cultivated a strong culture and amazing team! Hands down, you're missing out if you don't regularly go to JMA!

Took my 12 yr old and 6 yr old here during the summer. #1 word that came to describe the scene: Chaos. There were so many kids during so many random things that I don't know how now did not get hurt. It reminded me a little of 'Lord of the Flies.' In that kids were in control. There did not seem to be an flow through the parts of the course, where to start, what to do next, or anything. Just kids running around. And the adults there, most were either on their phones or they were the ones literally hanging from the rafters 50 ft in the air and doing flips into the foam pit for the kid's entertainment. Kids were having fun, but it was too much going on with no clue for first timers on what to do. We had two hour pass and we didn't even make it to one hour. I was pretty disappointed. We drove an hour to do it. Won't be going back.

The theory behind this place is amazing! I love the classes and coaches are good. One of the things I am not a fan of is how many kids there and classes at the same time, especially with the smaller kids group. Big kids tend to take over. They are extending and I'm excited to see the new section! Overall it's a great way for kids to spend some energy!

Our kids love Jungle Movement. The coaches (especially Kyle and Will) care about the kids they are working with and push them to achieve their goals. I can’t wait to see the expansion and how much more is done with the added space. All kids have a great time and you get to bounce around some also!
