Community Shoutouts

Elemental 5 is amazing! We’ve hosted a birthday party there, joined a kids camp and have attended many open gyms. Joe, Lexee and Josh make the kids feel welcomed and seen, the three of them *make* this gym what it is. Thanks for providing a fun, safe space for the kids of Chaffee County!

Brittany

Elemental 5 has truly been a game-changer for our family, and we absolutely love it! It has had such a positive impact on our daughter, and it's been amazing to see her grow as she learns new ways to move her body. Not only has she picked up some impressive tricks, but her confidence has blossomed as well. One of the highlights of the class for me is the mat chats, where the instructors share insightful advice that applies not just in the gym, but in everyday life too. The influence Joe, Lexee, and Josh have on their students is truly special. They strike the perfect balance of challenging them while providing constant support and encouragement. I highly recommend Elemental 5 to anyone!

Charlotte

We had our son’s birthday party here and can’t say enough positive things about it! The facility is clean, the equipment is fun for all ages, and the staff was kind, organized, and super helpful! We will be coming back for day classes, camps, and future birthdays without a doubt! Thank you Elemental Five!

Amber

Coach Joe, Coach Lexee and Coach Josh are amazing!! The are great with the kids and teaching them fun activities with a mindful purpose to being a good human as well!! 10☆☆☆☆☆! Thank you

Natalie

Went to the open house, open gym, and a Friday day camp and each one was lots of fun for the kids (ages 6&9). Most recently hosted a birthday party there and couldn’t have a changed a thing to make it go any better! Lexee, Joe and Josh were amazing with the kids and had a good mix or organized fun and free fun. Kids had a great time and so did the adults! Thank you, Elemental 5 for what you offer the community!

Sarah

Brought my daughter by for an instructional class. She’s new to all this and can be a bit apprehensive. The coaches were so patient, funny, and instantly made her comfortable. They cater each skill to each kid to help them learn at their own comfort level. Love the encouragement! Salida needed a place like this - thank you!

Raimi

My family LOVES this place. It's highly, highly recommend! Lexee and Joe are incredibly talented, and they are amazing in their abilities to work with and teach kids. We have done the open gym and aerial acrobatics classes, and we had a party there today. It's a fun place to have a birthday celebration. The set up is perfect, and it was a great experience all around! We are looking forward to the Ninfit classes too. Thank you, Lobecks! We appreciate you!

Jodie

Elemental 5 is such a gift to the community of Salida! My kids absolutely love their ninfit class. They have fun and work hard!The instruction is excellent…the coaches are kind and knowledgeable.

Training That Moves the Body and Shapes the Soul

Elemental 5 is a movement dojo that blends ninja fitness, parkour, tumbling, and aerial arts with a bold philosophy rooted in the five elements.

Start Your elemental Journey today

The Five Elements of Training

At Elemental 5, training isn't just physical—it's elemental. Every skill, drill, and challenge is tied to a deeper quality that shapes who you become, not just what you can do.

Earth – Foundation, Strength, Structure. “What You Build Today, You Stand On Tomorrow.”
‍Water – Flow, Adaptability, Skill. “The Path Is in the Flow.”
Fire – Power, Courage, Passion. “Ignite the Impossible.”
Air – Endurance, Creativity, Expression. “ Where the Mind Goes, the Body Follows.”
Void – Mastery, Presence, Integration. “ Do Less. Become More."

Each class, test, and performance is designed with these elements in mind—so that your child grows not only as an athlete, but as a whole human being.

Our Origin Story

The Origin of

Elemental 5 Origin Story

The seeds of Elemental 5 were planted in our teenage years, when martial arts first introduced us—Joe and Josh—to the elemental framework that would shape our lives. This way of thinking became more than a philosophy. It became a compass: a lens for conflict, a method for training, and a foundation for understanding the world. Over the next two decades, our paths took us through the military, circus arts, ninja warrior, parkour, and back to martial practice. In each domain, we discovered the same truth—training the body changes the mind. It builds character, cultivates discipline, and reveals a deeper self. What began as a shared language between brothers has since evolved into a complete system—a dojo for modern movement, rooted in ancient wisdom. Elemental 5 is our way of inviting others into that world.

Our Philosophy

At E5, we believe that movement is more than muscle—it’s meaning in motion. Our elemental system trains students not only in flips, vaults, and aerial skills, but in the qualities behind them: Earth’s stability, Water’s adaptability, Fire’s courage, Air’s endurance, and Void’s mastery.As students progress, they begin to see the connection: that power, control, and grace aren’t just physical traits—they’re life traits. Every jump, hold, or fall is a lesson in handling complexity with presence.

Meet Our Team

We are passionate about revolutionizing youth fitness through a fusion of acrobatics, parkour, and ninja training. ​By emphasizing skill development alongside personal growth, we prepare our students to excel in both athletic pursuits and everyday life.

Joe Lobeck

Joe’s path has been anything but ordinary — martial artist, soldier, traveling clown (yes, with a rubber chicken in tow). What ties it all together? A devotion to the magic hidden inside disciplined practice. Through the art of "ninja" acrobatics, Joe helps students unlock not just physical skills, but the timeless wisdom, grit, and joy that life is really made of.

Lexee Lobeck

Lexee Lobeck began her acrobatic journey in competitive gymnastics before transitioning into theater, earning a BFA in Theatre from Wayne State University and training at the Moscow Arts Theatre School. She later joined Aloft's Full-Time Training Program in Chicago, where she specialized in handbalancing, trapeze, and flexibility. After meeting her husband, Joe, she moved to Salida, CO, where she teaches yoga and plays a key role at Elemental 5, continuing to share her movement expertise with the community.

Josh Lobeck

Josh has pursued the path of “Becoming a Ninja” since childhood, exploring parkour, martial arts, and acrobatics. He earned multiple black belts through a decade of training in Karate and Ninpo Taijutsu, competed on Ninja Warrior in 2011 and 2012, and later served in the Marine Corps as a Martial Arts Instructor. Now in his 30s, Josh continues to train and coach at Elemental 5 while actively practicing jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, and Krav Maga.

The BIG Online System Switch is just around the corner...
‍If you haven't already heard, we are switching our online management system to iClassPro on May 15th. On this day all memberships through Wix will be cancelled and you will be asked to set up a new account through iClassPro. There will be a grace period from May 15th to May 31st to accomplish this gym wide task.

On June 1st all tuition will be charged, and going forward tuition will be charge the 1st of each month. If you sign up for classes halfway doing the month then your rate will be prorated for that month.  

You are still able to request a cancelation at anytime, but we ask if you choose to cancel then please notify us by email no less than 7 days before the 1st of the month so we have time to process your request before the next billing period. There will be no refunds.  

There will still be an opportunity for makeup classes, but the process will be more systemized, as tuition will be class based as opposed to membership based (which is what we are currently using with Wix).  

‍There will be an updated discount policy as well:
First kid's first class is $75, second class is 25% OFF, third class is 50% OFF
‍Second kid's first class is 10%, second class is 50% OFF, third class is 75% OFF
‍Third kid's first class is 15%, second class is 75% OFF, third class is FREE
‍Fourth kid is FREE!

‍Please watch out for another email closer to the big day with more detailed information and instructions on how to proceed.

If you are interested in joining the Performance Crew, but not sure if it's the right fit, then please come see what this program has to offer and understand the future trajectory.

There will be auditions for the Performance Crew on Saturday, June 21, at 10AM.
