NinFit Progression Update
Many students already have the first iteration of our NinFit Student Skill Log Booklet. We are releasing an updated version that better matches our current weekly training cycle, progression system, and testing pathway for Levels 1–3.
Booklets are $15 and will be available at the front desk. If your student already has skills signed off in the first version, those skills can be transferred into the updated booklet. Sign-offs happen naturally over time when coaches see that a skill is consistent, controlled, and ready.

Leadership in Motion
A huge shout-out to these students for supporting our 4:30 class for the last 8 weeks as Junior Coaches.
This program gives students ages 11–13 a chance to practice leadership, responsibility, and service on the floor. They help younger students, support the coaching team, and begin learning what it means to be a positive role model in the gym.
Summer Camps
We added a new E5 Ninja Camp week: July 13–17. If you have been looking for another summer camp option, registration is open through the parent portal.
Performance Pathway
We are opening audition appointments over the next 3 months for students interested in joining Echo, our performance troupe pathway.
Requirements
More information about the audition process will be given upon request. To ask about an audition appointment, email gym@elementalfive.com.

We are grateful to share that Elemental 5 received a $25,000 grant through the Enterprise Fund through the Chaffee County Community Foundation to help fund our new spring floor. This is a major step toward the next chapter of the gym and the equipment needed for our new facility.
We are still actively fundraising and seeking sponsors as we work toward our larger equipment and facility goals. Every contribution — large or small — moves us closer to the facility this community deserves.
Limited Opportunity
If you would like to lock in current pricing, the only way to do that is through our Founding Membership campaign. Founding members will keep today's rates for two years and become a permanent part of this building and this community.
Founding Tiers Start at $500 for Families
Founding members lock in today's pricing for two full years and become a named part of the new Elemental 5 facility. To learn more, email us or stop by the front desk.

We have our 2026 student demo dates picked out. Please save these dates in your calendar.
