By far, one of the biggest asks we get from you is if we can offer day camps when schools are closed for workdays.

We’ve scoured the school calendar & ours and are excited to offer these full or half day camps when Craven County schools are closed for workdays.

The first one is this Friday, September 20. Click this link to register: https://empowertkd.wodify.com/OnlineSalesPortal/PaymentPlans.aspx?OnlineMembershipId=274968&IsMobile=True&LocationId=10869.

If you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected].

Please see this important announcement for scheduling changes today in light of the impending storm. Stay safe & we’ll see you soon.

Congratualtions to our students who passed today's belt tests and received their next level belts and certificates. Good job, everyone! Keep up the good work! We are proud of you! 💪🥋🏆

Summer campers are having the best time learning about fossils this week. We’ve made our own fossils, learned about fossilization, and are going to end the week at the Fossil Museum.

We have a few spots that have opened up in these last weeks. Let us know if you want to join us.
