K-8 Educational Entertainment: Making learning fun through movement and play.
Hula Hoop Kid-Fit Program
After-School Enrichment Program (ASEP). A modern spin on the classic fun of the hula-hoop combines music and athletics in an active and engaging fitness program that encourages activity for the pure joy of movement. Class fosters high self-esteem and body acceptance in a happy and creative learning atmosphere. Students participate in non-competitive games and learn the value of teamwork.
Hula-Hoop Science Program
Students learn in a simple, engaging, and fun way the principles of physics by using hula-hoops tricks to demonstrate the mechanics of Forces and Motion. Physics principles explored: gravity, friction, rotation, torque, axis, centripetal and centrifugal force, and Newton’s laws of motion. In-school field trip program meets NC/SC Teaching Standards.
STEAM Program
Delightful STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) program based
on the book Nia and the New Free Library. The picture book tells the story of one girl who reminds an entire town of the joy of books and community. After story time, students will work as teams to build their own mini library just like Nia out of PVC pipes and connectors and then have a ribbon-cutting celebration! Program meets NC/SC Teaching Standards.

My girls have enjoyed Cara Zara’s after school program and summer camp multiple times and always ask for more. Cara is more than fun – she has the spirit that we all want to share with our children. The skills that are learned go way beyond just exercise. She teaches rhythm, self confidence and all around good, clean fun. I highly recommend this to all students. There is no such thing as too much fun.

I worked for many years with Cara in her role as a children’s entertainer and educator at Waxhaw North Carolina festivals that I managed. Cara is full of enthusiasm and high-energy that is contagious. Children and adults are instantly attracted to her lively spirit. Cara knows how to work a crowd and get everyone involved in her performances. The best part is you were actually getting a fitness workout while engaging in Cara’s activities without knowing, because she made them so fun and entertaining. Cara is a pleasure to deal with and I would whole-heartedly recommend her.
