Why Breathing Space Kids Yoga Camp?

Breathing Space summer camp in Washington DC provides children with a fun, creative, educational, and enriching experience through yoga movement classes, mindfulness activities, relaxation, games, crafts, field trips, and outdoor time.

Each week-long camp is sure to create lasting memories, new friendships, and a foundation for health and well-being!

Yoga and mindfulness can help children build self-regulatory skills, resilience, social awareness, and confidence, as well as gross-motor skills, strength, and fitness. Through yoga, children learn techniques for concentrating, reducing stress, and connecting to their bodies in a loving way while having fun.

Breathing Space Kids Yoga Camp takes the lessons we learn in our yoga and mindfulness practice and expands them to a full week of activities.  Of course, we do lots of yoga and yoga games, but that’s not all:

• We’ll do arts and crafts or themed activities every day.
• We visit neighborhood playgrounds and water features and have out-of-studio/church time every day.
• We typically do at least one theme-based outing to a special location like a museum or educational site for every weeklong camp. We travel by foot or bus/metro.
• Unless the weather is terrible, we’ll hold lunch and free play outdoors daily.
• We will have some form of quiet relaxation time every day.
• We work a lot of free-play time into our camp between organized activities as well.

Summer Camp Group Sizes

Our camps are more intimate than many. Most St. Mark's Church camp weeks are capped at 16-30 (for larger groups, we run most activities in smaller sub-groups). Camps maintain a roughly 6:1 camper-to-staff ratio. Our campers and counselors get to know each other and make lasting friendships.

Note that registration groups are not "classes" and are simply designed to ensure an appropriate age distribution. All campers at a single location are treated as a single group. We may break into smaller groups for art and yoga (and occasionally outings), but campers will spend most of the day together.

Summer 2026 Grade Ranges

All weeks of Yoga Camp are open to rising K-4th.  Please note camper grade ranges. All summer camp grade ranges refer to Fall 2026 grades.

Rising PK4

We have five weeks of camp – July 6, 13, 27, Aug 3, 10 – open to rising PK4, who are 4 years old by Sept 30 and meet our camp readiness requirements. 

With pre-approval, we also allow a very limited number of rising PK4 younger siblings who have experience with Breathing Space classes to attend weeks open to K-4th graders. See FAQs for our age policies, including younger sibling enrollment. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate rising PK3 students.
