Camp of Champs, August 9th - 13th

Our annual Camp of Champs is just around the corner. It'll be held August 9th - 13th. Last year's camp was a huge success. All students who attended made huge gains in their techniques and skills and more imortantly, they gained discipline and focus as the trained nearly 20+ hours in one week. Imagine gaining three to five months of training in one week!

The main purpose of the camp is to help our students progress faster and gain the practice that they need. Students can become rusty during the summer due to lack of practice at home. This camp will polish them up and they will have a blast while training hard. Students will have the opportunity to earn their next belt rank at the conclusion of the camp and they will learn a different set of curriculum from what they are being taught in class this quarter. This will allow students to continue to progress in their regularly scheduled classes after camp.

An average day at camp will be something like 10am - 12pm: forms training and a fun activity; 12 - 12:30pm: lunch (bring your own); 12:30 - 1:30pm: self defense; 1:30 - 2pm: fun activity.

The date to preregister by is August 4th. The cost is $175 ($120 for Flying Dragons Team students) or $200 on the 1st day of camp. The cost includes testing fees and 20+ hours of martial arts instruction. If you have multiple students, you will receive a discount for the second and third student registered.

We are excited for this year's camp and hope to see many of you attend. All students who attend will be invited to a camp graduation party held at the Spanish Fork pool (time to be announced).
