SPOTTED is the first of its kind, Ninja Warrior and obstacle course coach certification, developed and taught by American Ninja Warrior athletes and coaches. SPOTTED stands for Safe Progressive Obstacle Training Techniques Education. Our mission is to help progress the sport of ninja by helping gyms run safer, more efficient, more successful ninja programs. The SPOTTED ninja certification starts with the most fundamental coaching and spotting techniques to ensure that, first and foremost, every coach is equipped to run a safe class. Then, we delve deeper with hands-on training to show proper skill progressions, creative obstacle course setups, and all of the safety precautions to take for each progression. SPOTTED is safe and progressive training!
