Our camps for Young Adults, Juniors and Mighty Lions take place in our large, bright, air-conditioned space, as well as outdoors when weather permits.
  • Camps are open to Glen Ridge TKD students as well as kids who have never taken Taekwon-do classes.
  • Current Glen Ridge Taekwon-do students receive a discount on camp tuition
  • Students enrolling in Juniors camp can attend one, two, or three weeks of camp

Enrollment is on a first-come, first-served basis.  Once the camps are full we will open a wait list and we do our best to include as many people as possible.
Mighty Lions Camp (kids age 4-6)
Our Mighty Lions summer camp is designed specifically for boys and girls ages 4-6. As in our year-round program, Mighty Lions Summer Camp will emphasize discipline, focus, and motor skills development, while incorporating more organized game-playing and age-appropriate physical conditioning.

Juniors Camp (kids age 7-14)
Our Juniors summer camp, designed for boys and girls ages 7-14, is an excellent way for new students to establish a solid foundation in Taekwon-do fundamentals, and for experienced martial artists to improve their minds and bodies. Emphasis will be placed on Taekwon-do instruction and age-appropriate physical conditioning.  Instructors will lead daily Taekwon-do training, including putting together a demonstration for parents on Friday. Camps run Monday to Friday 9:00am-3:00pm.

Young Adults Camp (students age 12-17, and age 11 Red Belts & Black Belts)
This day camp is open to kids age 12 and up, and to Red Belts and Black Belts age 11.  Because these students are older than the younger Juniors they have greater capabilities that need to be encouraged and challenged to bring out their abilities and develop the more mature martial artist we know is inside these students.

This camp is an excellent way for young people with no experience to get an immersion into taekwon-do and for experienced martial artists to improve their taekwon-do knowledge.  Emphasis will be placed on the cerebral side of Taekwon-do and on deepening an understanding of the higher concepts within Taekwon-do training while still working on age-appropriate physical conditioning. Master Giletti leads daily Taekwon-do training as well as sessions analyzing Taekwon-do theory and application.

​July 12-16, 2021 from 9:00am - 3:00pm
