During the summer break, we offer a unique opportunity for kids to engage daily in a mindful movement camp, through the urban landscape of Palma, 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 and animalistic movements. These sessions aim to cultivate concentration, mindfulness, coordination, strength, flexibility, self confidence, agility, creativity and playfulness.
The Urban Movement Kids’ 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.
Preferable that your child has joined our parkour sessions previously or has some knowledge of parkour. All sessions will be tailored to the capacity of each child. Limited to 10 pax. Full camp enrollment only.
