Early Morning Dance aerobics

Annual Summer Camps at Asian University

The first of the two annual Summer Camps has just kicked off at Asian University, with 136 youngsters staying on the campus to better their English, and have fun. A group of teachers from Pattaya are also improving their English communications skills at the University, and join forces with the Summer Campers for early morning aerobics classes.

Three of the campers, Mr. Naphat Kukiatkan, Ms. Tanchanok Sathirasethawong and Mr. Korakot Teerasawad, have written the following:

“Talking about sports that can make you healthy, some people might think about football, basketball, badminton or tennis. But have you ever thought about the kind of sport that moving your body all around and every part? That’s right, it’s an “aerobic dance.”

In this camp every Tuesday and Thursday we have to wake up early in the morning for aerobic dance. Everyone has to do it, including TA (Teaching Assistants) and teachers. We have to follow what our leaders do. It has many steps. The things that we like about this aerobics are, it’s good for your health and it’s fun. It doesn’t matter what have you done, but it matter that you have to do something. Every sport can make you healthy. So it’s good to do some.”

The four-week programme includes 22 hours of English classes each week, plus IT and mathematics. In the evenings and at weekends, there is cooking, arts and crafts, and Latin and Jazz dancing as well as day excursions to various local attractions.

The second four-week Summer Camp starts on 16 April, and there are still a few places available. Details are on the Asian University website.
