DescriptionThey have seen it in the movies and played it in video games....now your kids can experience the thrill and excitement of light saber combat in real life! LudoSport is a fully-realized, complete, martial sport-centered around the iconic weapon from science fiction. We know they are not ACTUALLY real, but this is about as close as you can get without compromising safety. Younglings will develop their coordination, focus, and social skills while being reinforced with the LudoSport ideals of Service, Care, and Respect. With a strong focus on basics, taught from a foundation of good body mechanics, safety, and tactics, this camp will prepare and enable them to engage in thrilling duels like the ones they watch over and over! They will burn energy, build fundamental skills like footwork, control, and the ability to think under pressure, while having an absolute blast while doing it!
Students will be instructed by Benjamin Thompson, Rector of LudoSport Canton. He has been a student of the martial arts for over 30 years, holds a 5th-degree Black Belt in Traditional TaeKwon-Do, and has multiple championship wins at the state and national level, including being ranked #1 in Ohio and #13 in the United States for the 2023-24 LudoSport Tournament Season.
