Summer Camp
Summer Camp
Registration is now open for Summer Camp 2021!
We are so excited that Circle Yoga will once again be filled with joyful sounds of summer camp starting in late June!
As usual, we're planning a summer filled with yoga, mindfulness, fun and friends. You and your kids will of course notice a few changes based on our COVID protocols. Registered families will receive camp forms and more specific information about procedures in May.
Due to DC government requirements and COVID protocols, our weekly camp groups will be smaller this summer—so register soon before the weeks fill up!

Yoga and meditation are on the agenda at mindfulness-focused summer camps

...If mindfulness-oriented camps are gradually becoming more mainstream, Circle Yoga’s Summer Camp was ahead of the trend. The program has been offered for more than 15 years... “Many kids come back for several weeks each summer and return year after year,” instructor Linda Feldman says.
Kids kick off the day coloring mandalas, then sing mindfulness-themed camp songs so popular with families that the studio turned them into a CD. They do a playful yoga session, with moves like “yoga freeze dance,” plus breathing exercises, guided meditation and a foot massage. They have snacks in a Zen garden and free playtime in a local playground, and they spend time silent journaling. “You’d be amazed how they do this for 20 minutes — they love it,” Feldman says. “It gives kids the permission to just find some stillness, ease, creativity and joy.” More
Cancellation and Refund Policies
Circle Yoga reserves the right to cancel any weekly session of camp due to low registration or extraordinary circumstances. Registrants will be informed of cancellations at least two weeks prior to the beginning of their registered camp week. In the case that Circle Yoga needs to cancel a week of camp, refunds will be provided in full to registered students.
If COVID-19 exposure is detected within the camp group, camp will be moved online to Zoom and a partial refund will be provided. This amount will be the difference between our in-person and online camp fees.
Refund requests must be made 14 days prior to the start of the camp week for which the child is registered. We will deduct a $50 administrative fee from refunds.
Sorry, no refunds after the deadline and no prorated refunds for missed days of camp. Please note that camp registrations cannot be transferred to other campers.
