The Dragonfly Dojo is the first level that appeared in Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly. One dragonfly is required to access the Dragonfly Dojo, with Miyagi helping Spyro to take the stones to reach the Dojo.
The Dragonfly Dojo is a sacred place where the Dragon Masters train baby dragonflies on how to become Dragon Companions. Unfortunately, the Riptocs have disturbed the peace around the Dragonfly Dojo and have taken over, freezing all of the Dragon Masters and started to capture a few Dragonflies. Zoe witnessed this and informed Spyro when he arrived. Spyro managed to free the Dragon Masters, and brought peace back to the realm, despite once again encountering the troublesome bear, Moneybags (strangely, the only appearance of him in the entire game).
Dragonfly Dojo is also home to Banzai Speedway, which has the usual two challenges. It also has a tank training game where the player needs to destroy 21 dummy tanks and open the gates to get to new areas.

Trivia
- Dragonfly Dojo was originally called Sparx Pond, where all the dragonflies were born.[1]
- Some of the inhabitant's names are based on famous martial arts actors (e.g. Bruce for Bruce Lee, Master Jackie after Jackie Chan).
- Roshomon and Yojimbo are likely named after the famous films directed by Akira Kurosawa.
- One of the dragonflies, Cinder, shares the same name as the playable dragon character, Cynder, but with an "i" instead of a "y".
- This is the only world in the game that requires backtracking, as Ice Breath is needed for the Kite Sidequest.
- However, it is possible to get the kites from the trees without Ice Breath by jumping, gliding and hovering really close to them will put Spyro on top.
- Patton, the dragon who gives you the tank training minigame, is named after an American tank general of the same name.
- Apart from the detail such as the cloud count, the backdrop is the same as Lofty Castle.
- The enemy ninja A.I.'s in this level, when hit, make similar sounds to Rhynocs in Molten Crater in Spyro: Year of the Dragon.
- The concept of freeing dragons in this level is a reference to Spyro the Dragon.
