Discover the Math and Movement Summer Camp
Welcome! Rueda de la Vida is a Vancouver non-profit on a mission to make dance — and learning — accessible to everyone. Math X Movement is our children's summer camp, where kids learn math fundamentals through their bodies as much as their minds: counting rhythms, moving through shapes, and dancing to Latin music all week long.
The camp was inspired by our founder Rohana's five-year-old neurodiverse son, who thrives with movement-based learning. Built for kids ages 5–8, the camp runs as four week-long sessions in July, each combining dance with math fundamentals.
We encourage neurodiverse children to apply!
What we get up to
Music Lessons
Counting beats in 2s, 4s, and 8s across Latin music styles — feeling the numbers in every rhythm.
Dance Activities
Campers design their own dance steps inspired by shapes — geometry you can dance.
