The Ann Arbor College of Martial Arts Kids' Day Camps are a great way for energetic kids to channel their energy while they are on break. A parent's work does not simply stop when their kids are out of school, and child supervision is still a necessity. We hope to provide a safe and stimulating environment that your children can continue to learn in during their break.

Our Summer Day Camp is unsurpassed in the Ann Arbor area. Every day, our camp will "explore" the Ann Arbor area with a mini-field trip. These trips include locations such as the Zap Zone, Buhr Park, Colonial Lanes, and more! Even if it's rainy, our camp will still be open with our rainy day backup schedule. Once every week, children in our camp will go on a longer day trip to locations further away. These locations include the Detroit Zoo, the Dundee Indoor Water Park, and more! No two weeks will ever be the same at our Summer Day Camp, so returning children will

In addition to our various trips, students will have at least two hours of outdoor activities each day (weather permitting). Throughout the camp, children will learn about valuable life skills, such as discipline, respect, leadership, and conflict resolution. Last, but certainly not least, children will be taught our Children's Martial Arts program, emphasizing self-protection, personal development, and fun!

We intend to continue the learning process during the summer for our children, develop and maintain a healthy outlook toward self-development, encourage a sense of health and well-being through stimulating play, and provide an alternative to daycare during the summer. The Ann Arbor College of Martial Arts' Summer Day Camp focuses on team-building exercises, leadership development, character development, creative problem-solving, physical fitness, and most importantly, having fun!
