More Than Just a Summer Camp
At Yorkdale Martial Arts Summer Camp, children experience the best of both worlds: serious martial arts instruction and summer fun. Each day includes age-appropriate training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Taekwondo, balanced with games, team activities, and creative play.

Many campers go on to enroll in our year-round programs after experiencing martial arts at camp.

Frequently Asked Questions About Summer Camp
Our Kids Summer Camp is designed for children ages 5-12. We group campers by age for appropriate activities and instruction levels, ensuring everyone has a great experience regardless of their age within this range. Children must be able to use the restroom independently.
No prior martial arts experience is needed. Our camp welcomes complete beginners alongside students who already train with us year-round. All martial arts activities are adapted to each child's skill level, and the focus is on fun, learning, and making friends rather than competition.
Campers should bring: comfortable athletic clothing (no jeans or dresses), running shoes for outdoor activities, a packed lunch and snacks (we are a nut-aware facility), a refillable water bottle, and sunscreen. We provide all martial arts equipment needed for training. Label everything with your child's name.
We maintain a maximum ratio of 1 instructor to 8 campers to ensure proper supervision, safety, and individual attention. All staff are trained in first aid and child safety, and have completed background checks. Our experienced martial arts instructors lead all training sessions.
Yes, you can register for as many or as few weeks as your schedule requires. Each week is a standalone experience. Multi-week registrations receive discounted rates. Popular weeks fill quickly, so early registration is recommended. Waitlist members get first access.
While it's rare for children not to enjoy camp, we understand that every child is different. If your child is struggling to adjust, our staff will work with you on solutions. We offer a satisfaction guarantee: if your child is truly unhappy after the first full day, we'll provide a prorated refund for the remaining week.
