Camp Move Your Mood in Okotoks

The Program

Campers will have fun learning the value of individual pursuits, teamwork, and sportsmanship through core movements like running, jumping, kicking, throwing, tumbling and play based activities. In addition, attendees will get the chance to try their hand at a variety of specialty mindfulness-based activities that include mindful minutes, reflection, discussion, arts & crafts, journaling, nature walks and more. 

Using intentional movement as the lens through which we explore new themes each week, Camp move your mood is based on children getting the opportunity to gain a strong movement foundation and conversation about the importance of daily movement. 

At Camp Move Your Mood, this year’s theme is all about consistency, daily habits, and meaningful routines. Through movement, creativity, and reflection, we help children build simple yet powerful rituals that support both their physical and emotional well-being.

Each day, campers will engage in five mindful reflection prompts woven into our camp experience:
✔ What are you grateful for today?
✔ What would make today great?
✔ I am... (daily affirmation)
✔ What was the highlight of your day?
✔ What did you learn today?

Much like brushing your teeth keeps your smile healthy, practicing daily mindfulness strengthens the mind. By integrating these reflections into our movement-based activities, we help campers develop lasting habits that build resilience, confidence, and a positive outlook—skills they will carry with them long after camp ends.

“Camp Move Your Mood offers the essential ingredients that EVERY child needs to build resiliency and to thrive! Children learn how to connect with their minds, bodies and hearts, through physical activity, time in nature, play, positive social interactions and age-appropriate mindfulness activities. Keeping children physically active can be a challenge, but this camp provides ample opportunities for each child to learn new skills, to challenge themselves, to believe in themselves and to reach higher. I can’t recommend this camp enough!”

What people are saying about
Camp Move Your Mood

"My 10 year old son just finished week one of the Move Your Mood Camp. To say he loved it would be an understatement. After the first day he asked to be signed up for week two! The people at Restorative and Orenda are amazing. Them working together at a kids camp was such a great combination, I highly recommend!" ~D.C

"My 8 year old daughter just finished one week of summer Camp Move Your Mood at Restorative Sports Therapy. As a parent, to find a camp that has extremely thoughtful programming, carried out by educated staff, in an environment with fantastic indoor and outdoor activities, this camp is a dream (I'd pay for it's value 10x over). As a child, my daughter has completely found her summer place away from home, she loved every day of the week, I asked her to think of three words to describe it; "amazing, exciting, and fun". We are looking forward to a second week of CMYM (as well as Orenda programs during the school year). Thank you Gina and staff for setting the bar high, and nailing it." ~K.M

"Thank you so much for providing such an incredible experience for my son this past week! He came home each day sharing parts of his day with us and telling us how much he loved the camp. He cried on the last day because he couldn’t go back to camp next week lol! And has already asked to go back next summer. He’s going to be so excited to come back in August! As a parent it means the world to me that he spent time tapping into not only his physical well-being but also his emotional and mental well-being. You have created such an amazing program that is going to benefit these kids for their whole lives! Thank you!!!" ~D.M

General

What is Camp Move your Mood?

Camp Move Your Mood is where we bridge the mind body connection through finding strength in movement. Each camp week will be filled with new experiences, movement, self – exploration, growth and transformation. Our activities for kids ages 5-11 feature innovative teaching methods, small classes, and incredible movement mentors! Through an innovative approach that combines multi-sport practices with mindfulness-based activities, this camp is designed to offer kids the chance to develop and gain movement awareness through learning fundamental movement patterns ( ie: hinge, squat, crawl, roll) , the ABC’s (agility, balance, coordination and speed) of movement and self exploration. Given the opportunity to learn a wide range of physical skills, children acquire the basic building blocks for the competence, confidence, and motivation, to try many physical activities and sports. Fundamental movement skills are very important to a child’s physical development. When confident and competent in these skills, children can develop sport-specific and complex movement skills.

What is the Full CMYM experience Package? (summer only)

The full CMYM Experience Package is the best way to complete Camp Move Your Mood. Your child will get 2 weeks of camp and can cover all aspects of the emotional and movement literacy programs.

My child has a severe food allergy. What precautions will be taken?

We will be outside for the week, so most less severe allergies can be mitigated by being outside.

If necessary, we will touch base with all parents who have a child participating in the week and ask that they not pack any of the food item of concern without disclosing the name of your child.
