Camps

Our signature camp, LARP is “Live Action Role Playing Game”. Coaches lead the group on a story arc where they battle “monsters” (coaches) with foam swords and shields, run parkour obstacle courses narrated as Castles, Temple Ruins, and Lost Cities, and try to solve Challenge games like “Human Pac-Man” and “Parkour Red Light, Green Light” to advance the story. Students get to choose to play as 1 of 3 Classes: Warrior uses a foam sword & shield, Wizards throw a foam ball “spell”, and Rogues use or throw a foam dagger. Each character class has advantages and disadvantages against different Monster types and Challenge games. The game is very immersive and encourages students to learn parkour, climbing, improv acting, and real-life communication and puzzle solving skills by listening to the various clues that the “In-Game Characters” (played by our coaches) say – there are often word puzzles and other clues in dialogue that the In-Game Characters say to students (and alter based of what the group says back to them!). Students can also find hidden powerups in the game such as an “hourglass” which gives them one free redo of any Challenge they didn’t pass, and other creative options.
