Experience Yoga
With CAMP SUMMERS USA

Working as a specialist yoga counselor at a summer camp in the United States is an opportunity to bring calm, movement, and well-being to the experience of children and teenagers. Camp life is full of activities, friendships, sports, and stimulation, so yoga can offer something different: a moment to breathe, stretch, focus, and connect with one’s own body. As a specialist, you will be able to design sessions adapted to different ages and levels, without aiming for perfect poses or competition. Your mission will be to create a respectful and inclusive environment where each participant can move comfortably, learn simple breathing techniques, and discover useful tools for managing their energy and emotions.

Responsibilities

Your tasks may include preparing a quiet space, setting up mats or approved materials, and leading sessions with gentle warm-ups, basic poses, balance exercises, stretching, breathing, and relaxation. You may also propose mindfulness games, movement activities, themed sequences, and outdoor activities when conditions allow. It will be important to explain each pose clearly, offer modifications, and remind participants to listen to their bodies and not force movements. Some groups will respond better to active, playful sessions; others will appreciate calmer practices at the end of the day. Your ability to adapt the pace, duration, and language will make yoga accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Profiles with training or experience in yoga, movement, physical education, wellness, dance, children’s activities, or working with young people are valued. The specific requirements depend on each camp, but empathy, patience, responsibility, and the ability to adapt activities are essential. You will work in English, live alongside people of different nationalities, and develop skills in leadership, communication, and group management. If you enjoy helping others find balance and creating positive spaces, working as a yoga counselor at a U.S. summer camp can be a very rewarding and meaningful professional experience.

SAFETY FIRST

Yoga can help campers develop body awareness, balance, flexibility, concentration, and the ability to relax. It also offers simple tools for dealing with nerves, frustration, or excess energy, always from a positive, age-appropriate approach. As a counselor, you will be able to encourage respect for oneself and others, avoiding comparisons and celebrating participation. Breathing and mindfulness activities can improve listening skills and the ability to be present, while group activities reinforce an atmosphere of mutual care. Your calm and approachable attitude will be key to helping participants feel comfortable, even if they have never practiced yoga before. The goal is for each one to discover a personal way of feeling better.
