A fun way to improve your thinking skills! This 9-level program provides a challenge to players of all skill levels. Certificates are awarded at the end of the course
Using special motorized kits and themed engineering challenges, kids build machines that move, spin, lift, and more. From building Ferris wheels to animal bots, each project integrates real STEM concepts like gears, pulleys, and basic physics. Instruction is age-appropriate and hands-on, encouraging creativity, curiosity, and innovation through guided exploration.
This dance program invites kids to explore the world through movement. From the beat-heavy bounce of hip hop to the flowing moves of contemporary dance, each session highlights a new style that inspires creativity, rhythm, and fun. Styles explored include:
· Hip Hop – popping, locking, house dance, and freestyle
· Reggaeton – urban Latin grooves and high-energy moves
· Contemporary – fluid motion, improvisation, and emotion
· Latin Fusion – salsa, bachata, merengue, and more.
In this unique culinary class, kids will use fresh fruits, colorful veggies, crackers, and sweet treats to build edible art. Think fruit kabobs, veggie animals, and mini dessert masterpieces. Kids will also explore basic decorating skills like piping, fondant shaping, and edible design. It’s the perfect blend of imagination and hands-on fun that sparks a love for both food and art.

This activity consists of making cool things using the new technology of 3D pens. Students will learn how to use the 3D pens to create 2 and 3 dimensional creations based on their imagination. Classes start with the basic drawings then advance to 3D art creations. Materials will be supplied. All crafts are safe and fully supervised. Students will be thrilled to bring their creations to life.
A taste of ITALY in every class!

Through engaging games and expert instruction, students build confidence, discipline, and focus while learning practical anti-bullying strategies. This program blends techniques from wrestling, jiu-jitsu, karate, and Muay Thai, helping kids develop real skills while having a blast. As they progress, they’ll earn belts, set goals, and grow into strong, respectful, and resilient little champions—on and off the mat.
Are you a LEGO fan? Love to build? Well, this program is for you! Welcome to the world of LEGO Creative Building. In this program, we theme each workshop and camp and build all kinds of models.

The goal of this program is to teach the fundamental basics of basketball in a non-competitive environment where the emphasis is on fun and exercise. Children will learn how to pass and dribble, proper technique with regard to foot work, and how to work as a unit to accomplish drills. Great program for both beginners and returning students!
Young scientists embark on an exciting, hands-on journey to explore chemistry, electricity, forces, flight, structures, pressure, water, and even the science behind magic. Children build airplanes, create electrical circuits, test balance with gyroscopes, and design strong structures, and investigate the surprising properties of air and water—all while learning how science shapes the world around them. With creativity, curiosity, and fun at the heart of every activity, this program inspires young minds to think like scientists, problem-solve like engineers, and discover the joy of learning through experimentation.
Budding scientists will learn about a variety of animals and perform experiments to better understand them! Students will learn how a polar bear can stay warm in the freezing cold, study the butterfly life cycle and see how it uses mimicry to avoid being eaten by predators, dissect an owl pellet, make a bird feeder, study animal welfare, prepare dog treats to take home or donate to the SPCA, and more!
