Youth Camp Age Group Emphases
For the Youth Camp, different age groups will have special topical focuses for the duration of the camp. While all students will participate in all camp activities, each student, according to their age, will also be given particular projects that will capstone their summer camp experience.
- Students aged 7-11 will focus on creating their own narratives about building positive futures, utilizing the various artistic skills they will learn throughout each day. They will compose and illustrate detailed stories, and then work together with their classmates to act out their stories, being the heroes of their own narratives and their own futures.
- Students aged 12-15 will focus on putting together a complete filmed production of futuristic narratives. They will engage heavily with scriptwriting, storytelling and plot development, and the “fieldwork” of developing characters that embody the spirit of shared struggle towards a positive future.
- Students aged 16 and up will focus on greatly expanding their writing and networking skills to not only produce attractive, expertly-written essays for high-conscious institutions (or proposals for creating their own high-conscious, future-focused businesses), but also to connect with other academic, future-focused teens around the world. Students will actively prepare for their next stage in life: becoming conscious minded citizens of humanity.

This highly anticipated Intensive Kung Fu-Warrior Training Camp designed for both beginner and advanced martial artists, community leaders and instructors, as well as future local and international instructors is right at the corner, scheduled for July 31 – August 8 2021 at Shaolin Institute on Atlanta campus. This highly anticipated arts of Shaolin Zen and KungFu program promised for each participant an unforgettable life experience in eastern wisdom and martial arts to not only learn the live street self-defense, but train in character of humbleness, compassion and integrity but indomitable spirit.
This 8-day and 7 nights annual Shaolin Intensive Kung Fu-Warrior Training Camp with Zen (Chan) mind consciousness and Kung Fu (GongFu), as Bruce Lee introduced in his 1970s movie, takes its turn back to the scene in the US with a full lay out.
That Zen consciousness in GongFu is to set mind and body free beyond tradition and beyond any old training camps’ expectations anywhere around globe, As Greater Master of the Shaolin Temple once expressed “ “Shaolin Temple is Zen”.
Can one perceive, receive that information, and survive this camp if one is in the level of that plain field? That is challenge the institute presents. If one does, one may be out of any kind of short tunnel vision. This is not about how good or what skill level one has; It is about one’s consciousness and it is one’s opening mind with total mind and body freedom. Is one ready to “be water” as Bruce Lee put it.
