fma summer camp
In our Summer Camp, kids learn firsthand how focused effort pays off.
Your child will be taught by the very best instructors in karate or jiu-jitsu while having fun both indoors and outdoors with fellow campers.
Campers will advance through our curriculum while developing skills, increasing their level of fitness, making new friends, and having fun. They’ll venture outside with fellow campers to local parks and beaches, take part in structured activities, and more.
Summer Camp takes place from 9am – 3pm, where 3 hours will be dedicated to martial arts, and 3 hours to structured activities, games, and fun.
