Celebrating Ninja Nation's Arrival in Spokane: A Grand Opening to Remember

Ninja Nation Opens First Location in Washington State

On Saturday, March 23rd, Spokane, Washington, became a bit more adventurous with the grand opening of Ninja Nation's first location in the state. Situated at 8016 N Division St., the event wasn't just an opening; it was a full-blown celebration of fitness, fun, and the spirit of ninja athleticism that captivated the Spokane community. From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., attendees were treated to a ninja party like no other, complete with food trucks, a DJ spinning energetic tunes, prizes, and an atmosphere buzzing with excitement and encouragement.


Behind this significant introduction of Ninja Nation to the Pacific Northwest are Sarah and Alexi Matousek, a dynamic duo deeply rooted in both the healthcare profession and a passion for ninja sports. Alexi, a seasoned contestant from "American Ninja Warrior" Seasons 7 through 10, and Sarah, an advocate for public health and wellness, have long envisioned bringing this unique sport to their community. Their dream became a reality this weekend, marking a new chapter in Spokane's fitness and entertainment scene.


The event underscored Ninja Nation's commitment to providing a space where individuals of all ages can challenge themselves, develop new skills, and, most importantly, have fun. The Spokane Arena, boasting a 14,000-square-foot arena, is not just about obstacle courses; it's a hub for community engagement, offering 20 to 30 new jobs and a venue where locals can train, play, and compete at world-class levels.


Sarah and Alexi's vision extends beyond just one location. They hope to foster a thriving local ninja community, making it easier for enthusiasts to engage without crossing state lines. Their dedication to health and wellness isn't limited to Ninja Nation; the couple also operates a non-profit in rural Haiti, aiming to endow the program with proceeds from their venture into the ninja world.


Alexi's journey from a medical resident to an American Ninja Warrior contestant has been a testament to the couple's belief in using their platform for a greater cause. By sharing their story and the mission behind their work in Haiti, they've managed to raise awareness while pursuing their passion for ninja training—a sport that emphasizes personal growth and community support.


Ninja Nation Spokane promises to be more than just a gym or an entertainment center; it's a place where everyone can discover their inner hero. Emphasizing engagement, encouragement, and energy, the facility offers open gym sessions, classes, camps, and birthday parties designed to promote physical health, focus, and the joy of staying active.


The grand opening of Ninja Nation Spokane has set the stage for a new kind of community hub, where the challenge of the course meets the cheer of the crowd. As we celebrate this milestone, we invite everyone in Spokane and beyond to experience the thrill of ninja athletics, where every leap, climb, and swing brings us closer to discovering our fullest potential.
