Regardless of the activities and sports our campers participate in everyone benefits from trying new things and having fun! Camp Pocono Trails makes the process of getting fit a very positive experience. Our sports programs focus on camper participation, not winning and losing. Campers receive athletic instruction from a first-rate staff, where positive reinforcement is continually at work to encourage kids, whatever their skill level. Building self-esteem is key. The environment is always non-threatening and stress-free. Our counselor-to-camper ratio never exceeds 1-4.

Every camper will have the opportunity to try new types of exercise, improve their fitness skills and gain confidence in order to continue with exercise at home. Going to the gym or joining a class at a fitness studio can be intimidating. Camp Pocono Trails makes exercise fun, exciting and welcoming for all fitness levels. Whether a camper has never exercised before coming to camp or has exercised for many years, everyone is encouraged and supported. Certified group fitness trainers are able to adjust and modify certain movements to different skill levels while teaching in a group setting. Campers are eased into the exercise program and as their skill and fitness level increases over the summer, so too will the difficulty of workouts. Types of exercise offered include Zumba (follow along dance-based cardio), kick boxing, boot camps (using body weight to build strength), high intensity interval training, mixed martial arts (MMA), running, and supervised strength training in the weight room.

Each day there are five scheduled activity periods. These activities range from traditional sports like basketball and soccer to new trends like Zumba and mixed martial arts (MMA).
