Week 2: July 22nd - 26th - STAR WARS!

This week, in a galaxy not so far away, young Timmins GJJ padawans begin their Jedi training! Throughout the week the kids will train their bodies and their minds in their journey toward becoming Jedi Knights! This will include making their own light sabers, Jedi physical training, and working on understanding the dark side by participating in a Bullyproof workshop focusing on compassion and friendship. As our field trip this week, the padawans will further study the cosmos with a visit to Science Timmins for a special Planetarium presentation by Master Antoine! When the dojo falls under Imperial attack, led by Darth Vader himself, the new Jedi defend their dojo and fight for the galaxy's freedom!

Week 3: July 29th - August 2nd - GRACIE BULLYPROOF CAMP!

Unshakable Confidence with Gracie Jiu-Jitsu

Bullies target children who don't stand up for themselves. By giving your child the non-violent Gracie Jiu-Jitsu techniques to neutralize a physical attack, they will have the confidence to take a stand against bullies before the harassment spirals out of control.

​

Verbal Self-defense Training

Verbal harassment is more common, and often times more damaging, than physical harassment. To ensure your child is ready to identify and overcome these inevitable attacks, we conduct a series of specific role-playing exercises each day of the camp.

​

Fun and Fitness for All Ages

Kids don't like to exercise, but they love to have fun. Each morning we begin with the "animal warm-up," and throughout the day we play several other games designed to give your child the exercise they need and the fun they want!

​

Character Development

The connection we develop with the camp participants is strong, and we use the connection to instil the life lessons that every child needs. Each day we choose a different topic, from discipline and healthy living to drug defence and abduction prevention, so your child is ready for life beyond the playground.

​

Free Gracie T-Shirt (At Headquarters Only)

If you pre-register for the camp before July 1st, your child will receive a free Gracie t-shirt along with their Gracie Bullyproof Certificate of Completion at graduation!

As our field trips this week, the our Bullyproof campers will visit some local hero's such as Timmins and area 1st Responders (Timmins Police, Firefighters, Paramedics)

​

NOTE: Kids must have a white jiu jitsu gi (uniform) to participate.  Available for purchase at Timmins GJJ

Week 4: August 12th - August 16th - SURVIVOR WEEK!

This week, campers will outwit, outplay, and outlast in some survivor themed fun! Children will be organized into tribes, participate in daily tribal councils to award points, and compete in special survivor themed challenges. These individual or group challenges will be just like the challenges from the TV series favorites, full of puzzles, physical obstacles, and even some yucky food eating contests (though safe and palatable enough, of course!) Then, the children will test themselves against the ultimate physical challenges of an obstacle course. Friday, we will hold our final tribal council and determine the campers' fate!

Gracie Game Day

Gracie Game Day happens every two months and is absolutely free to our younger members. There is only one catch. They must earn their way in!

Gracie Game Day is part of our Character Development Program. The program consists of six chapters: Responsibility, Health, Respect, Citizenship, Manners, and Caring. We spend two months on each chapter. In every class, we discuss the featured character trait for 10-15 minutes, emphasising the simple things your child can do to make it a part of their life. The kids use our unique point-based system to gain enough points to qualify to attend Gracie Game Day. This system is a powerful incentive for kids and a useful tool for parents to develop positive behaviour at home and school. Gracie Game Day is so much fun that parents will often put on a uniform just so they can join the party!
