More than "fun & games"
A summer that builds character
Yes, we play hard. Yes, we laugh a lot. Yes, your child comes home smiling. What makes 1UP different is what happens beneath the surface — every day is intentionally designed to help kids grow.
- Build real confidence
- Improve listening
- Develop leadership skills
- Make real friendships
- Stay active and off screens
We blend high-energy games and team challenges with what we train on the mat — exciting activities wrapped in structured mentorship and positive role models. No martial arts experience needed; we simply use the same rules and structure as class.
Passionate mentors
Not just camp counselors
If you've been part of 1UP, you already know our instructors are different. They're trained in martial arts and in child development, leadership, and positive coaching.
- Learn every child's name
- Pull kids aside for one-on-one encouragement
- Reinforce respect, discipline, and kindness
- Create a safe, bully-free environment
- Hold kids to high standards, with heart
Your child is the most important thing in your life. We treat them that way.
Structured. Safe. Screen-free.
Summer should feel exciting — parents deserve peace of mind
Kids stay active and moving. Bullying is never tolerated. Group challenges build teamwork, even shy kids open up fast, and our staff are attentive and hands-on all day long. Many of our camp families drive 20–40 minutes just to stay part of this community — that says everything.
What makes 1UP camp different
We build leaders
Everything we do is rooted in our core values.
Respect
Led by our Winter Park staff, campers learn to treat others — and themselves — with kindness and dignity.
Focus
Kids learn when it's time to go wild and when it's time to dial in. Play hard, then lock in — every single day.
Confidence
A safe, positive environment every morning is how self-esteem grows. Encouraged, challenged, supported — they rise.
Fitness
Kids are glued to screens more than ever. Camp keeps them moving all day, because active kids are happier and more resilient.
Social Skills
Team-based games and shared challenges create real friendships. Bullying is never tolerated here — in any form.
Community
Group games get kids from all over Winter Park working together. We're not just a camp — we're a tribe.
Mentorship
Our instructors care, a lot. Kids open up to them and get real guidance, encouragement, and accountability.
FUN
We're dealing with kids — fun has to be in the equation. New games and challenges keep them smiling all summer.

Frequently asked questions
Winter Park summer camp FAQs
Is your program full?
Not yet! But word is spreading about our Winter Park summer camp and spots get taken every day. Reach out now and let's see if it's a fit.
How do I get my child started?
It's easy — enter your info above and you'll be able to book a quick discovery call. We'll chat about you, your child, and camp, and make sure it's the right fit.
My child has ADD/ADHD. Will camp work for them?
Absolutely. There's no 'cure' for ADD/ADHD, but exercise helps a lot. Every session kicks off with games that burn energy and are designed to build focus and concentration.
My child isn't athletic. Will they feel left out?
Not at all. Every child does what they can, and no one is ever made to feel bad about their athleticism. This isn't a competitive team sport — it's fun, focus, and growth.
Does my child need martial arts experience?
Nope. Plenty of campers have never taken a class. We just use the same structure and rules as class to keep the day safe and organized.
