This was the first ever GKC Spring boot camp for our Little Dragon students. Campers participated in a number of fun and educational activities including newaza (ground techniques), a "stranger danger" segment - an age appropiate talk and role play teaching the students what to do if separated from parents in a crowd, and how to react if approached by an adult when their parents/teachers are not in the immediate vacinity - in addition to some challenging strength building drills. As you can see below, all participants had a great time while working hard and learning some new skills.
