Providing Comfort During Uncertain Times through #ItsALegacyMMASummer
/There is comfort in knowing. Let’s face it, mom and dad. 2020 has thrown us some curves and while we have the experience to navigate those tough moments, this is all brand new for our children. This week, our campers will take comfort in what they know. They know fun. They know they’re safe. They know the field trips. While we may have a surprise this week, it will be surrounded by what they know so they’re comfortable.
Monday, July 13, 2020- Stars and Strikes
Mondays have been all about Stars and Strikes. Campers love video games and comfort today brings because it’s guaranteed fun!
Tuesday, July 14, 2020—Sparkles Family Fun Center
We’ve added a new local spot for our campers to have fun. Sparkles Family Fun Center in Lawrenceville is perfect for campers (and families) of all ages. There is an indoor playground for younger kids along with skating and laser tag for older kids.
Wednesday, July 15, 2020 Billy Beez
Pro-tip for today, mom and dad—send your campers wearing their Billy Beez socks. It means they won’t have to wait around to get their socks. AKA—they’ll get more time to play.
Thursday, July 16, 2020 Skate Country
Campers love skating, of course! But some of our campers (especially our boys) love playing arcade games too! A few extra bucks adds to the fun of today. No matter what they decide to do, we’re just glad they’re having fun!
Friday, July 17, 2020 Water Day!
Send those towels and an extra change of clothes! Your children will be getting really wet. With all this heat we’re experiencing, it’s much needed!
After School Karate Helps Kids Process Change
We are very aware of the trauma sudden change an bring to children. We have all experienced COVID-19 and children, while resilient, have a different way of processing what is happening. Our way of life is changing and for them too. We know that sudden change could be on the horizon as we send children back to school in August. Legacy MMA wants to reassure you that your children have a safe place to process trauma. Whether your children talk about it or not, their bodies are impacted by this at a cellular level. One of the ways we’re doing our part is by continuing to offer after school karate at all of our locations.
Our after school karate program teaches mindfulness, self-control, and strength. Mindfulness gives students a moment to pause and be in the moment and feel what they’re feeling. Then they get to release any energy or negativity with karate through punches and kicks. They learn self-control with their movements through our curriculum. Students also learn about their own strengths and build upon them. We love seeing students realize that strength and improve.
Summer campers get free 2020-21 registration. Rates are still the same-- $65/week which includes pickup at school, uniform, and daily classes.
