Are you looking for a summer activity that’s not only entertaining for your children, but also something different from the usual playing video games and/or lounging around the pool? If soccer, baseball, or basketball camps just aren’t your thing, then maybe you should try Kick Masters Karate Summer Camp.

For the past 16-years, Kick Masters has hosted one of the most popular camps for elementary school students in the area. Armed with a traditional Tae Kwon Do base and years of experience, the Kick Masters Summer Camp features hands-on training in developing speed, agility, coordination, balance, and flexibility. But Summer Camp isn’t just limited to developing the body. Black Belt camp counselors will challenge campers with cutting-edge martial arts drills and games, while building self-esteem and character. Campers will inevitably develop self-control, focus, and respect, while becoming more confident and motivated. Participants also learn the value of teamwork and leadership, as our program is structured to bring out the best any child can exhibit. In fact, Campers experience all-day themed fun while enjoying group demos, snacks, weaponry, competitions, and of course our parent popular fight scenes. Superhero themed skills and challenges happen all week, and culminate on “Parent’s Day,” when the entire family can witness the energy and entertainment that Galaxy’s Edge Summer Camp delivers.

This year, Summer Camp will take place at the Kick Masters Studio between the dates of June 17-21 and July 22-26. Camp is held between the hours of 9:00AM and 3:00PM, with morning snacks served at 11:00AM (you must bring your own packed lunch). Summer Camp is open to all children ages 7-12, even if they’re not a current student. The cost of camp is $199.00 per camper if paid in full before June 1st (early bird discount), or $229.00 per camper after June 1st.

With summer offering a more flexible schedule, why not try a camp that will transform your child into a leader in the classroom? Why not enroll them in a camp that will make them positive trend setters in their peer groups and a physical standout in the various other sports in which they may already be involved? Why not teach them the value of responsibility and commitment, while instilling honor and confidence? This summer make some new friends, and join us for a fun-filled, superhero adventure guaranteed to surpass your expectations…GUARANTEED! We’ll see you there!
