Here at The Trainers Guild, we have developed a slate of classes, camps, and activities that help support your child’s learning and growth while considering the real-world scheduling needs of you, a busy parent.

In an increasingly digital world, we know you want your kids to have in-person interactive experiences, make friends, and have fun learning. We offer summer camps, after-school programs, and private coaching programs that meet these needs.

Through our Pokémon Trading Card Game-based curriculum, we help children develop a wide range of valuable skills, all while having a blast!
