Summer Camps
5 Elements Martial Arts
As part of our mandate to share the benefits of martial arts and to have fun, 5 Elements Martial Arts the studio offers energetic, exciting Summer Camps and thrilling, inspiring Karate Ninja Birthday Parties. And both our summer camps and birthday parties follow our mantra of inclusivity and accessibility for all kids, no matter their individual challenges.
Hosted in our world-class facilities by our highly skilled instructors, these additional programs offer kids the opportunity to explore the different disciplines of martial arts. Combining technique with lots of fun, these programs are designed to introduce the basic concepts of martial arts with drills and fitness practices, and just for fun, we throw in some of the more exciting challenges like board breaking!

Martial Arts Summer Camps in Calgary
Summer Camps
5 Elements has been providing action-packed summer camps for Calgary Kids for over 16 years. Our day camps focus on the basics of all of the disciplines we offer and are a great starting place for kids interested in martial arts. For our studio members, the camp is a great place to showcase their skills, learn new techniques, and try out different disciplines. Each day we will train in one or more disciplines like Karate, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, BJJ, boxing, tae kwon do, and self-defense. Camp days include karate games, obstacle courses, board breaking, self-defense, and anti-bullying strategies, weapons training, arts and crafts, and more. We incorporate drills that improve coordination and agility keeping kids active and engaged over the summer months. Each week concludes with a miniature tournament with prizes.
5 Elements Summer Camps are open to children aged 4 and up (must be potty trained). Weekly camps run daily from 9 am-3 pm with before and after care available. Half days, single days, and full-week options are available.

Camps & Birthday Parties: Frequently Asked Questions
We ask that all participants be potty-trained. We are able to customize a party for children as young as aged 3, but the party is best suited for children aged 5-12.
We will provide the facility, instruction, and any equipment needed for the karate class. Our party room is equipped with a table, benches, and a kneeling table to eat around. You are responsible for cake, food, plates, cups, water bottles for the lesson, any decorations you would like to bring, candles, lighters, and any activities you would like to do in the 45 minutes after the lesson.
This is totally up to your family. If you want to encourage parents to participate, this is counted in the 12 paid student spots. Any combination of parents and kids exceeding 12 will be subject to the additional participant fee. You may also host the parents in the upstairs classroom or parent viewing area.
*During COVID we ask that they drop the children off. Check for current regulations when booking.
Each Spring we release the weeks during the summer we will be running camps on our website and social media. Make sure to keep your eyes out. Once the dates are set we will take registration via email or over the phone.
For a full-day camper please pack a water bottle, comfortable clothes your child can move around in, a full lunch with multiple snacks, any medication or personal items they may need. If your child is currently one of our students they are welcome to wear their martial arts uniforms, but they are not required to. Please pack additional street clothes for the non-martial art activities. Other than that we will provide everything your child needs for the camp. We do offer personal equipment for sale if you would like for the camp or for regular classes afterward.
We do not allow parent participation in order to encourage your child to experience the camp with the other children, nurture confidence, and foster empowerment. Our instructors have many years of experience facilitating these programs to make the camp the most enjoyable for your children, and if parents attend we find the kids aren't able to be kids! Parents are welcome to attend the mini-tournament at the end of the week.
