Urban Movement Teen Camp
5 - 9 July 2021
2 - 6 Aug 2021
9:00am - 12:00noon
Ages: 11 - 16 years old
During the summer break, we offer a unique opportunity for teens to engage daily in a mindful movement camp, through the urban landscape of Singapore, that uses a variety of movement methods to encourage body awareness, physical conditioning, playfulness and mindfulness. Each session will include gentle warm ups, elements of parkour, calisthenics and locomotive movements, as well as daily breath work and meditation. These sessions aim to cultivate concentration, mindfulness, coordination, strength, flexibility, self confidence, agility, creativity and playfulness.
The Mindful Movement Camp is facilitated by Daniel Sonic Rojas, who has an incredibly experienced background in movement and mindfulness art forms, and who is internationally recognised for his unique aptitude to engage with children and adults to easily translate these meaningful modalities.
Sessions will follow all Phase restriction guidelines. No movement or meditation experience is necessary, and all sessions will be tailored to the capacity of each participant.
