Each Kaizen Summer Camp is limited to 20-children per camp.
This is to ensure that each child gets proper attention throughout the week.
This is not a large, overcrowded babysitting-style camp.
The goal is to create a structured, fun and personal camp experience where children feel included, encouraged and looked after.
Kaizen Summer Camps are new for 2026, but Curtis is not new to working with children. Curtis runs Kaizen Martial Arts Academy, a year-round martial arts academy based in Loughrea. He has been coaching children and families for years, helping them build confidence, discipline, respect, fitness and self-belief.
When you book your child into Kaizen Summer Camps, you are not booking into an unknown pop-up camp. You are booking with someone who already works with local children and is trusted by local families.
Each camp runs for 4-days, from Monday-to-Thursday. Places are limited to 20 children per camp.
