About this event
Everyone deserves the confidence that comes from feeling strong, agile, and capable in your own body - even if you've never stepped on a mat before. Strong Bodies, Strong Leaders is a beginner-friendly, FUNdamentals-based camp designed to help youth develop physical literacy, coordination, and self-confidence through games, movement, and low-impact wrestling activities. This program will introduce participants to fitness, agility, and basic self-defence in a supportive, low-pressure - and most importantly - FUN environment! Mornings focus on movement and skill-building, with activities like safe falling techniques, balance challenges, agility circuits, obstacle courses, and creative partner games. Afternoons give participants the chance to put these skills into action with teamwork challenges, leadership games, and fun wrestling-inspired exercises - all designed to encourage confidence, communication, and cooperation. There is no competition pressure, just a focus on learning, exploring, and having fun. Led by Payten Smith, former Team Canada athlete, and Cruz Velasquez, a current wrestler training for the 2028 Olympics, campers will be guided by a dynamic duo with decades of combined experience and a passion for teaching. Payten wrestled across Canada and North America with over 10 years of competitive experience, while Cruz brings 18 years of wrestling expertise and an inspiring drive to compete at the highest level. Together, they create a safe, fun, and engaging environment where every camper develops physical literacy, body awareness, and confidence. This is a full-day program with a rest day on July 1st.
