SUMMER CAMP

Summer Camp 2024

Darimar Martial Arts offers eleven fun-filled weeks of Summer Day Camp. With a focus on martial arts, the program is designed to instill important values and skills, such as teamwork, confidence, focus, discipline, and fitness for children from the ages of 4 ½ to 13 years. The experience also includes traditional day camp activities such as arts & crafts, water day fun; including but not exclusive to water balloons/water guns/and more, archery, ice cream trips, dance parties, and weekly field trips! Whether the camper is signed up for one week or the full eleven weeks, memorable experiences are sure to be made! Each week is geared toward a special theme teaching our students an important life lesson; such as leading without being bossy, treating others with kindness, the value of teamwork, and much more! Darimar’s energetic camp staff and martial arts masters are highly qualified, well trained, and excited to work with our campers. In addition, the summer camp program strives to maintain a low child to counselor ratio to provide the best experience for each camper.

New to Taekwondo? Don’t worry! Every year new summer campers with no martial arts background start as white belts and learn and practice various techniques each day of camp. By the time camp is over, beginners will feel very comfortable with being in the Dojang and an active part of the Darimar family!
