"Summer camp is a very effective teaching environment because it makes learning enjoyable.
If we could bring the camp environment to school I think more kids would succeed."
-Troy Glover, Associate Professor, University of Waterloo Recreation and Leisure Studies
Our goal is to provide a safe, fun, secure, and non-competitive week of adventure, excercise,
fitness and fun, where children are encouraged to make new friends and learn exciting new
skills with a healthy mix of sports, and arts and crafts, with some added Martial Arts flair,
no previous experience required.

*************
Most every other summer camp offers a variety of sport based activities and games,
why not give your child something more valuable than a week of games this summer,
give them the gift of SELF CONFIDENCE!!!
(although we do have games and sports as well)

****************
Our Motto is "WITH EXPOSURE, COMES COMPOSURE"
This summer program will offer a unique Hybrid Martial Arts system
consisting of traditional Karate, blended with State-of-the-Art Reality Based
self defense instruction and anti-bullying techniques, designed to teach your child
important life skills such as balance, coordination, strength, courtesy, friendship,
respect, focus, confidence, teamwork, discipline and fitness.
Geared towards children ages 6 to 14.
We'll help prepare your children to better handle conflicts in a non-violent manner.

As well as an amazing Martial Arts experience, students will participate in a variety of different activities,
from games and sports, to age appropriate arts and crafts. Most classes will take place in a fully furnished,
full size gym, we also have access to regulation size soccer fields for of all our outdoor activities.
We recognize that each child is different and learn at their own pace, and have planned
our program accordingly, with one hour of Martial Arts instruction, followed by
one hour of a different Sports or Arts based activity as initiated by one of our
Early Childhood Education (ECE) instructors. Students will receive 3 to 4 hours of
Martial Arts instruction each day that will include personal 1-on-1 instruction with a Black Belt.
Each class will start out with some light stretching, moving on to
an easy workout, then onto the basics of Karate/Self Defense.
Students will be taught skills such as blocks, kicks, strikes, escapes, and street proofing, as well as
self defense techniques, anti-bullying stratigies, stranger danger, "the cost of violence", and
will demonstrate their first Kata (forms) by the end of the final day.
Student's will receive a white belt at the beginning of the first class, and will strive to
earn their basics (punching, kicking, and blocking) stripe by the end of the week as well.
Some of the Martial Arts instruction will be done through the use of interactive group games,
we want to keep the students stimulated and interested, not exhausted!
Regular summer attire is all that's needed, a lunch (peanut free please), snacks and
water to last the day, sunscreen and a hat.
If your child has shown an interest in the Martial Arts, this is the perfect opportunity
to give them a better understanding and an introduction to the ancient arts.
Each Friday, we'll have a Pizza lunch or a visit to the Ice cream shop,YUMMMM!
(included with fee)
Send your children back to school with more CONFIDENCE!
