Suburban aikido camp for kids (summer 2025)

As is cus­to­ma­ry at our club, we once aga­in orga­ni­zed subur­ban camps for chil­dren during the first two weeks of July. And what do such camps entail?

A diver­se group of chil­dren spend five won­der­ful days toge­ther, during which we exer­ci­se, go out­si­de, and, of cour­se, play lots of games (espe­ci­ally Paler­mo, which the chil­dren love).

In addi­ti­on to phy­s­i­cal tra­i­ning, we also deve­lop the chil­dre­n’s minds and spi­rits. Eve­ry day, we talk about the qua­li­ties we would like to have, the vir­tu­es we can deve­lop toge­ther, and other things the chil­dren want to talk about (most­ly cats and Minecraft)… you would­n’t belie­ve what they can come up with during these dis­cus­si­ons. For exam­ple, when tal­king about enthusi­asm, they men­ti­on that some peo­ple can only pre­tend to be enthusi­astic; when dis­cus­sing fear, they take into account the phy­s­i­cal beha­vi­or of light­ning during a storm; and when coming up with the final per­for­man­ce, they come up with the idea that the dra­gon will destroy the chil­dre­n’s TV in its final moments, so they will go out­si­de to practi­ce aikido.

Take a look at the pho­tos and be sure to join us next year!
