Keiran Deck | Founder
Secret Ninja School

Keiran is the founder and host of the Secret Ninja School, a movement program started in 2020 and now used in over 500 schools around Australia. He grew up a shy, withdrawn child with the coordination of a baby giraffe. A series of compassionate and patient coaches helped him form a love of a wide range of movement styles from martial arts to cricket and gymnastics. His confidence to move more came from the competence to move; you don't want to play if you don't feel very good at it. And, he argues, you don't need competition to achieve competence. Keiran has used a non-competitive approach developed from a combination of his own experience and drawing on research on physical literacy to help thousands of kids find their own love of movement.
