Big Kids Improv Camp

What?

Big Kids Improv Camp is a 3-day, 3-night transformative retreat for adults (19+) who like to integrate play with personal growth.

Over the course of the retreat, you'll dive deep into improv workshops led by some of Vancouver's most experienced improv performers and instructors—sandwiched between guided meditations, breathwork, mindfulness, and somatic practices that ground you in your body and the present moment.

But here's what makes this retreat truly special: the people.

When you gather with a small group of like-minded souls in the mountains, committed to play and growth, something profound happens. You'll form deep, authentic connections that extend far beyond the weekend.

These aren't surface-level friendships—they're the kind of bonds that last. The kind where you text each other months later, remembering an inside joke from the barn or a breakthrough moment during breathwork. The kind where you get each other because you've shown up vulnerably together.

Expect to:

  • Play hard – workshops designed to unlock spontaneity, creativity & joy

  • Breathe deep – guided practices to ground and centre you

  • Connect authentically – build meaningful, long-lasting friendships

  • Laugh freely – because fun is number one!

  • Be present – mindfulness woven throughout every moment

  • Grow boldly – shed what no longer serves you and step into who you're becoming

  • Belong – find your people in a community that truly sees you

Bonus: Farm animals galore!

This summer camp is for adults who are ready to say YES AND to play, growth, and unforgettable experiences.

It's summertime—the sun is hot and the light stretches late into the evening.

Being June in Squamish, we might see some rain (it's the mountains, after all! ), but we're adaptable people, and a little rain won't alter our experience—if anything, it adds to the magic.

We have a beautiful barn and large marquee where we'll gather and hold workshops, both planned and rain-dependent, so you'll be comfortable no matter what the weather brings. Rain or shine, we're here to play, grow, and connect.

The mountains don't wait for perfect conditions—and neither do we.

Where?

Glacier Valley Farm, Upper Squamish Valley, BC (12825 Squamish Valley Road)

Nestled in the heart of the Upper Squamish Valley, Glacier Valley Farm is surrounded by towering mountains, lush nature, and the kind of clean mountain air that makes you breathe a little deeper.

The moment you arrive, you can't help but feel grounded and held by the environment. This isn't just a location—it's a container for transformation.

Expect to see goats, chickens, pigs, turkey, ducks, lama, sheep, dogs, bison, bunnies, horses and emu throughout your stay. There's something deeply grounding about connecting with animals—they remind us to be present, playful, and perfectly imperfect.

This is where play meets peace. Where growth meets grounding. Where YOU meet the mountains.

Accommodation Options:

We're offering 3 types of accommodation to suit your comfort level and budget:

  • Carriage-Style Farmhouse Suites – cozy, charming, and full of character

  • Rustic Yurts – simple, serene, and connected to nature

  • Tent/Car Camping – for those who love sleeping under the stars

Each option invites you to slow down, unplug, and create a more aligned experience with yourself and the land.

Living in Squamish? Day passes are available! But we highly encourage staying overnight to fully immerse yourself in the magic of the retreat. The mornings here are something special.
