Obstacle Course Classes

Our Junior Boots™ kids fitness program near Dripping Springs (right by Austin) is a sight to see. The classes have a new theme and course every week, are approximately 45 minutes long, run 4-5 days a week, have 3 age groups, have a “rank system” using patches the kids will earn, and can be joined with either recurring or session-pass based memberships.

Kids Age Groups We Work With

We know every kid is different, which is why we've designed our programs to cater to specific age groups and abilities. No matter where they are on their fitness path, we'll help them reach new heights!

Alpha Company (Grades K-2)

The little nuggets ;) This class is dynamic and concise, ensuring eager young children are engaged and moving quickly through the fun new course and challenges each week. Super positive and fun!

Bravo Company (Grades 3-5)

Older and faster. But not too cool yet ;) This class has slightly higher levels of physical demand, with exposure to more diverse obstacles options, and peer problem-solving skills, all in a faster-paced environment. They love it!

Charlie Company (Grades 6+)

Oldest, strongest, & soon to be young adults. Here we offer higher levels of physical demands as gym obstacle options are more diverse and challenging, we spend more time on life lessons with them, and the problem-solving scenarios are much tougher. It's a blast!

Kids Camps

Our school break camps near Austin are the perfect way for kids to unleash their inner warrior during summer, winter, and spring break! The camp experience is a perfect blend of high & low octane activities including obstacle courses, team challenges, tons of fun games, and of course “target practice” (hand-eye skills). No, they don’t just run obstacles the whole day, that would not be fun for anyone ;) Our camps are a blast for us and them!

Registration into a Hot Ground Gym®Dripping Springs day camp can be flexible with half-day (AM & PM) or full-day options available. Our Leadership Summer Camp is the exception only being registered by the week.

Customer Reviews

My son loves the classes and was sooo looking forward to winter camp. It exceeded his expectations!! While he had a blast, as a mom i appreciate the balance of fun, challenging activities (the “missions”) with team-building exercises, self-defense training, and character building. I really cannot say enough about HG, it has made my kiddo love exercise and develop physically and mentally!

Hot Ground Gym is a wonderful place for children not just physically, but mentally as well. We have two boys who love it. The classes are led by fantastic instructors, especially Sam at our Arlington Heights location, that really care about the kids. Each week is different and my boys look forward to what challenges they will face. Reently, we also had a birthday party which was fantastic as well. We provided the food and Hot Ground took care of everything else from beginning to end in terms of setting up, cleaning up, and of course keeping the kids entertained with their obstacle course and team building events. The highlight was my son, the birthday boy, riding in a kayak held up by all of his friends. I highly recommend Hot Ground Gym to anyone looking for a a place to help strengethen their childs body and mind

My Daughter loves this place. She has learned so many new skills and good things from this place. They teach them so much more than obstacle courses they teach them team work and respect. The winter camp was awesome she loved expending time with the coaches and new friends. We will be doing more camps for sure. Thank you Hot Grounds you are awesome!!!
