mac islas

an inactive overweight child turned circus performer, turned gymnastics coach, turned ninja and parkour coach, turned father..

with 15+ years of working with children, mac exhibits an energy and passion for working with kids matched by no other.

growing up dealing with years of bullying mac has built a resilience and drive for being himself and chasing his dreams.

he has spent well over a decade passing on those ideals and life lessons to the children he teaches. he strongly believes that the disciplines we teach are merely the tools that a good coach uses to create happy, powerful, capable children that can take positive risk, show perseverance and care for those around them.

Having found his true calling in being a ninja coach, he finds the story we can weave through the lens of being a ‘modern day ninja’ connects so fantastically with children less into traditional sports, especially finding 1000’s of kids on the spectrum drawn to him and the way he creates his programs over the years, creating a place for kids like his younger self, that didn’t have anywhere or anything to be apart of.

With such a passion for children’s development, creating genuine, caring connections with children and families you couldn’t find someone better to invest in and work with your child!

(And hey, if ninja ain’t your thing he can easily and happily tailor the session to work for you!)
