Description

Field Trips at OCR Academy are the perfect way to help students build confidence, teamwork skills, and get a great workout! Your class will receive training from a coach who will show you tips and tricks on how to overcome each obstacle with efficiency.

What’s Included?

Our field trips run for approximately 2 hours. Upon arrival, our instructors will greet the group and help organize belongings into cubbies. The experience begins with an Obstacle 101 session, where an instructor walks the group through each obstacle, demonstrating proper technique and ensuring safety protocols are understood. Once the walkthrough is complete, kids are given free time to explore the obstacle course, where our staff remains available to supervise and offer tips. Depending on the group’s energy and timing, we may also organize a fun challenge or mini obstacle race toward the end to wrap things up, keeping the experience fun, safe, and memorable.

Why do a field trip at OCRA

Today’s kids are constantly overstimulated by technology, and for many, traditional sports just don’t hold their attention. From an evolutionary perspective, children are wired to run, jump, climb, and swing. Before the internet, what did kids do for fun? They explored, played outside, and used their environment creatively.
At OCR Academy, we believe it’s essential to let kids do dangerous things carefully. The confidence they gain by overcoming physical obstacles helps them build the mental resilience needed to face real-world challenges. When a child says, “If I can jump off a 12-foot wall into a crash mat, I can do this assignment,” that’s the kind of mindset we’re aiming to instill.
We want our kids to grow up resilient, and that starts by giving them opportunities to face obstacles and overcome them, with the support of their peers and mentors.

Who will benefit from this program?

This program is ideal for elementary, middle, and high school students, offering age-appropriate challenges that promote physical literacy, confidence, and teamwork. College students, especially those preparing for careers in emergency services or first responder programs, can also benefit. Our Fitness Challenge is designed to reveal areas of strength and highlight opportunities for improvement, giving students a chance to grow, adapt, and build resilience before facing a formal fitness test. It’s a safe, supportive way to prepare both the body and mind for real-world physical demands.
