🎉 Party Timeline

Before the Party

📩 We will reach out the week before the party to see if you have any last minute question, but feel free to reach out to us at anytime before than with any questions? Email us at up@urbanplayground.ninja

📣 Important things to tell your party guests!

  • Wear sneakers, shoes stay on.

  • Fill out a digital wavier through our website.

  • Parking is in the lot at the back of the building.

Does everyone fill out a waiver?

All participants must fill out a waiver as well as everyone out on the gym floor. Parents can fill one out digitally from our homepage. We suggest letting all guests know to fill out waivers prior to arrival to ensure the party gets started on time. We will have a sign-in sheet at our front desk to double-check waivers. As well as an iPad for last-minute waivers. No need to bring a printed copy.

What should participants wear?

Participants should wear “gym class” attire. T-shirt with athletic shorts or pants, and athletic sneakers. No open-toe shoes. Any type of running or training shoes should work. We will have a shoe cleaning station at the gym but also would appreciate cleaner shoes when entering the gym.

Can kids under 5 participate? Yes, we ask that any child under 5 years old be accompanied by an adult on the floor. This adult would also need to fill out a wavier & will not count towards the total number of participants as long as they are not using the equipment themselves.

Do adult family & friends count as participants? No, only the guests who are using the equipment count as participants, although this can be adults. Everyone participating requires a wavier.

What if we signed UP for 10 or fewer guests but we end up with more? Please let us know in advance if this is a possibility to ensure proper staffing.

Can we have over 20 participants?

At this time 20 participants are the absolute max.

What should we bring? We provide the gym space, instruction, & the party area. Here are some common things you can bring…

  • lighter to light the candles

  • Camera or phone

  • food, drinks, & utensils

  • decorations

  • knife to cut the cake

  • table cloths (2 x 8ft tables, 2 x 6 ft tables)

 

Arriving at Party

What time to arrive?

You should arrive 20 minutes before your party begins. Guests can arrive anytime within that 20 minutes as well, typically 10 to 15 minutes before.

Are participants allowed on equipment before the party? No. We don’t allow participants on equipment until after the rules.

The Party

1.5 hour Private Party! No other parties, open gyms, or classes running at the same time.

30 minutes of Ninja instruction & Games (This included rules)

30 minutes of “Free Play”

30 minutes for Food & Cake (Not Provided By UP)

Do we have to play a game?

Games are a fun way to break the ice & get warmed UP but you can request just an hour of “Free Play” after we go over rules.

Can I pay for more playtime?

Yes. 30 minutes can be added for $50. *Only available for the last party of each day.

What if I don’t need 30 minutes for food & cake?

Lots of parties do not need a full 30 minutes for food & cake. If you would like 20 minutes, 15, 10, zero minutes in the Party area? No problem! We can replace eating time with more playtime. We just ask to reserve this time towards the end so that participants do not re-enter the gym area after eating.

Can participants go back on the equipment after “Free Play” time is over?

Participants should not re-enter the gym area or use equipment after “Free Play” time is over and they have entered the Party Area, towards the end of the party.

After The Party

When is the party over?

Party is over at designated times depending on the start time, usually 2 pm or 4-415 pm.

Can we help clean UP?

All you have to worry about is taking anything you want to keep! We will clean and take care of all of the trash from the party!

Final payment or balance?

We can do this at any point before, during, or after the party. Card on file for deposit is usually the easiest option but we can also add another card or take a cash payment.

Did you enjoy your party?

We are a local small business, word of mouth helps us out big time. Please consider telling a friend or giving our business a review on social media. We also offer classes, open gyms, special events, & camps during the summer if you are interested in coming back!
