What Makes Adventure Chicks…Tahoe!!! So Special?

How is this program different from other fitness camps?

Adventure Chicks…Tahoe!!! is not the standard camp with 50 other camper’s housed in dorm-like accommodations served cafeteria style food. Adventure Chicks prides itself on being a very unique and well structured program offered to a limited number of 15 girls (ages 11-15) per session. This smaller group allows for a closer knit ‘family’ of girls all joining together for a summer fun learning experience. Our home cooked meals are decided on by the group so we may share our favorite recipes while learning how to create healthier versions of what we like best. We will have our own personal group chef but we will also learn to prepare many meals on our own….always a fun and creative experience!!! Nutritional guidance is a big part of our program and everyone will get the attention they need to reach their goals. Our smaller group allows us to enjoy the comforts of our beautiful Mountain ‘home’ in the spectacular vacation destination area of Lake Tahoe, California.

A limited group enables us to work as a team and one-on-one as we gain courage, build up confidence and work on some leadership skills while we are challenged with a variety of outdoor adventure activities. Certified Instructional Yoga and Personal Training sessions will be part of our program. We will learn to build our fitness skills on many levels with many different activities in order to find what we like and what we will continue with after the summer.

A limited group lets us decide as a team what the activity schedule will be for the week. We will try everything but we will all decide on where and when. There are so many choices available in Lake Tahoe…. Leadership training and assertiveness will always be a part of our daily programs.

Our limited group allows us to travel to many of the incredibly scenic surrounding areas where we will explore so many more natural wonders. The majority of our activities are based in the Tahoe area but there are some wonderful places close by to check out on a day trip.

Our smaller group of girls gives us the intimacy needed for our educational rap group discussions on stress management, dealing with the difficulties of adolescence, weight issues, nutrition, building confidence, learning better body image awareness, becoming more assertive, getting over shyness, ….the topics are endless and the setting is comfortable enough to be able to open up. It’s all about fun, it’s all about health…….it’s all about learning together in a beautiful place.

My personal goal and desire as Director of Adventure Chicks…Tahoe!!! is to teach girls how to incorporate mental and physical health into their lives on a daily basis. I want each girl to walk away with an appreciation of their good health, their uniqueness and to learn that we all have the ability in some degree to guide our destination and health by making healthy choices. Over the course of the summer we will all be reminded daily to absorb the beauty of each day we spend, reflect upon and appreciate our accomplishments big and small and to remember that each one of us is unique in our own special way. It sometimes takes people a long time to learn these simple lessons in life…some never do…

……and most of all…I want each girl to have a wonderful time exploring their own physical limits in this incredible place. I can never get over the beauty of these mountains and the crisp fresh air…I want to share this with all…and hope it becomes a lifelong memory as well as a healthy living learning experience.

Adventure Chicks…Tahoe!!! is a very special place to spend a summer. To learn, to grow, to meet life-long friends and to become a healthier individual…for life!!!
