PlanetBravo STEM Camps

I always had an amazing learning experience while attending this camp for over 8 years. The staff are great and the course structure is invaluable.

Our kids loved attending Planet Bravo each summer. The courses were always fun and engaging for our kids and the instructors were always hands-on and very patient when our kids needed additional help. They also did a great job of transitioning to online courses during the Covid years. I would highly recommend!

This place is amazing for kids to learn and develop at! There is a good balance of learning about technology and socializing. One thing that I was fearful of is that this camp was going to be all in front a computer, yet there was a lot of time spent outside playing games as well. All in all, this program is great!

My son has been attending PlanetBravo since the second grade, and it has been his favorite summer experience of all time. Not only is the camp interesting and educational, but the instructors are so fun and nurturing. If you want to introduce your children to the world of Technology, send them to PlanetBravo!

I've taken the courses at Planet Bravo for a while. The experience is unforgettable, and it was a joy to participate in the activities over the summer instead of rotting away at home. I've learned a lot about programming from Planet Bravo, and it has helped me greatly in my AP Computer Science Principles Class.

PlanetBravo was educational, inspirational and fun for our daughter -- it combined learning, fun activities, and interaction with other kids. She started going as a camper when she was 9 years old, and continued to become a counselor-in-training, and then a counselor during her summers off from college. PlanetBravo helped shape her career path, develop her sense of confidence as well as her leaderhship skills. The small class sizes allowed the counselors to be fun, caring and supportive to the kids in the camp. I highly recommend PlanetBravo to parents with kids who want their curiousity sparked.

PlanetBlavo is hands down the best STEM summer program in the SoCal area! It has been around for 10 plus years, with experienced directors who not only know STEM, but know how to make it fun for children with all types of learning skills. Kids are excited to go to the camp and want to show off their work.
I sent both children to PlanetBravo for 3 summers each, and they loved it so much both returned to be Counselor in Training (CIT) and one also as an Intern. It is a positive, creative, and fun environment and I highly recommend it!

Fantastic program for kids with educational classes taught by fun and enthusiastic instructors. My kids enrolled in multiple classes for many years and always looked forward to attending them. LOVE Planet Bravo!!!

My kids have loved taking Planet Bravo classes for many, many years. They always offer a great variety of relevant educational subjects and make learning so much fun. This is a top notch company!

Absolutely the very best, transformative camp experience.

Best computer camp ever! Great counselors and programs for kids. Our kids have gone many years in a row and have always learned a lot.

My kids really liked the summer camps. Counselors were really nice. There’s outdoor playtime for the kids so it’s not just computer/screen time.

My son benefited so much from being a part of Planet Bravo! I honestly believe that it had an enormous and enduring effect on his overall academic and social performance, not to mention his critical thinking and play skills. He recently graduated with a degree in physics with honors, and we still talk about Planet Bravo to this day! Thank you to Danny and everyone else at Planet Bravo for creating such a wonderful opportunity for our kids.

Planet Bravo was the best Summer program my two sons ever attended. This was the only one they wanted to go back to year after year. They are now 18 and 16 and still talk about how great Planet Bravo was.

I went to planet bravo for many years and it set me up to never be scared to try coding all throughout my middle-highschool education. It was so much fun and I made so many friends while also getting practical skills and exploring skills that could lead me to job opportunities. It’s an amazing camp and a great choice for every kid. They approach learning in the best most fun way, and I never felt like I was being forced to learn something. 10/10.

Planet Bravo was a camp I loved when I was growing up. I would always be excited when on my way over. The amount of creative freedom this camp gives its kids is phenomenal. It allows for complete creative freedom allowing children and teens to be who they want to be in a safe and fun environment.

I love PlanetBravo. They taught computer lab at my elementary school, and I learned so much. The program helped me with math, science, and art. The teacher was really nice, and our favorite time of the week was time with Ms. Castro. Make sure your school has a PlanetBravo program or go to their camps.

Easy for me to say that Planet Bravo has had the biggest impact on our family and friends than any other program any of us did

Year in and year out, the camp counselors made camp feel like a home away from home. Wonderful memories and friendships

Our kids have attended PlanetBravo's camp in Pasadena many summers in a row and our oldest son participated in the internship program when he got older. PlantBravo provides a wonderful STEM learning experience for kids. The class options are spot on and they provide other fun activities as well during the day. Aftercare opportunities are provided for working parents. The counselors are amazing and provide lots of hands on attention to the campers. A+ experience!

Both my kids attended Planet Bravo when they were young, and they later became counselors. Now my daughter is a data scientist and my son was an applied mathematics major in college who's now using data to inform the design of better cities. I know their wonderful experiences at Planet Bravo contributed to their interest in STEM and it really deserves the award.

We have always had fun at the camps. Kids played games, had their on line classes and screen breaks. Fun!

Planet Bravo is awesome! My children all took several courses, and it was definitely their happy place. The counselors are so interesting, bright, and supportive. I was so sad when my youngest aged out.

PlanetBravo not only excels in its academics but really shines when it comes to working with its students. By focusing on the individual they have created an atmosphere that allows kids an opportunity to become their best version.

Wonderful program. My son started as a student and stayed to become an intern!

Our kids attended for many years. Always a great experience — learned actual computer coding guided by counselors.

Former camper here. This camp is one that I have the fondest memories of being at. The staff was always welcoming and kind. I never felt left out or bored, and I'm glad I was able to have that experience while learning so many new things.

Planet Bravo was great fun for both my kids. It launched them on the path to their current college majors - one in computer programming and the other in live performance sound tech. Highly recommend.

Planet Bravo is a quality camp where kids learn and have fun. The staff make an effort to see that each attendee has fun!

My son attended Planet Bravo for 8 years and then became a camp counselor. We can't speak highly enough about this program.

After trying a number of camps, Planet Bravo is by far the best one our kids have ever gone to. Filled with fun and learning, once we found Planet Bravo we knew every summer was set. From top to bottom, it's become more than a camp and feels like family with the care of instructors and the friends my kids have made over the years. Just absolutely brilliant!

AMAZING!! One of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Changed my opinion on summer camps, brought me a place where I fit in, introduced me to many new future career paths, and is a fantastic memory as I pursue my career and educational goals. The best summer program possibly to ever exist, and that’s without hyperbole.

Planet Bravo has consistently been our family’s favorite camp for years! Danny and his team have provided wonderful learning experiences and lasting friendships for our son. They have also given him a wide-ranging tech and arts education far beyond his traditional school and other camps.

My son, now a college junior, attended PlanetBravo every summer starting at age 7. He was able to be a counselor in training (CIT) and an intern when he aged out. He loved the program for many reasons: great staff, interesting classes, and a fun mix of computer time and outdoor activities. As a parent, I loved how well run the program was and the terrific staff! Highly recommend!

PlanetBravo is an amazing summer camp! It was my kids favorite summer camp year after year, well-organized, with a great technology focus and amazing dedicated instructors. My kids' strong skills in technology continue to this day due to the foundation built in the Planet Bravo summer camps. They are truly the best at what they do!

My kids went to full time summer camps from age 5 to high school and planet bravo was always their favourite!

Planet Bravo has been incredibly instrumental in my daughter's life, from starting as a camper at age 10, to becoming a "counselor in training" as a teenager, to working the camps as a summer job, and now as a full-time instructor in the schools. Planet Bravo nurtured her passions for computer science and gaming, gave her confidence in herself and provided her with incredible role models as she was growing up.

Planet Bravo camps supported the launch of my children's futures, one into computer science and the other into data science. The hands-on experiences gained by campers from enthusiastic counselors and staff have made Planet Bravo have made it the camp where STEM futures begin!

Our son has always been interested in STEM so of course as parents we wanted to do all we could to nurture his interests and talents. We're very happy that we found Planet Bravo as the six summers he spent at Planet Bravo were among the best experiences of his young life. He still keeps in touch with several people he met at Planet Bravo and the positive mentoring he received from staff played a large role in shaping the decisions he ultimately made relative to career goals. Our son will earn his Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from Columbia University this May (2024) and we couldn't be more proud of him. Thank you, Planet Bravo!

I've loved planet bravo for years. They provide many classes, and every single time I go, I learn a lot. It's fun, it's educational, and I've never regretted it. Unlike other camps, I feel like I've actually learned something that I can continue to do at home which is super cool!

Planet Bravo exceeds our expectations year and year after year. The counselors are engaging, encouraging, and fun. My kids love it; they learn, they have fun, they even get exercise. Absolutely the best camp out there.

Planet Bravo is absolutely the best! It the was the only camp my kids wanted to go to every summer. Interestingly or not surprisingly, they both obtained masters degrees in engineering.

Planet bravo is just the best. My name is molly shannon. My son loved it.

Planet Bravo was the hands-down most important formative program in our 3 boys lives. All three grew up to be computer science majors, two are professional software engineers and the third is a current CS/math major in college!

My camper attended for several summers as a camper, and then went on to CIT virtually during the pandemic, and in person afterward. Great experience all around, and what he learned re: Unreal Engine and Unity no doubt helped him get experience to create a portfolio that helped get him into a whole bunch of colleges/universities with game design or game development majors, one of which he currently attends.

Our kids all loved PlanetBravo. They learned great coding skills and made lifelong friends. The counselors were fantastic mentors who created a really fun atmosphere.

Planet Bravo is amazing. Both of my sons went to camp there for several years. The summer camps are so well run. The counselors are fun, smart and engaging. My boys not only learned a lot but they also had fun and met nice people. Every morning they were excited to wake up and go to camp. The theme days are great and the "other" activities were fun and engaging as well (including board games and dodgeball). It was also nice to see the pictures they posted for the week so we were able to see the kids working at the computers, playing games and having a good time. I would (and have) recommend Planet Bravo to anyone.

Planet Bravo has creative programming that stimulates kid’s creativity while expanding their knowledge and confidence in using available digital/tech tools. My daughter has learned everything from coding languages to film editing techniques, and loved every minute of it. It’s an exceptional program that teaches kids real world skills and makes it fun. Highly recommend!

Many happy summers at Planet Bravo! There were always courses my son found interesting led by encouraging and supportive counselors.

PlanetBravo provides a full range of STEM activities for all ages. The school programs and camps are engaging and fun. My kids attended from kindergarten through seventh grade, both in school and camps, and loved every day!

Planet bravo is such an amazing camp I went there for around 6 years and CITed for 2 and I'm probably going to go back as a counselor. The aura around the camp is just so much fun while also being productive and promoting healthy learning. Every counselor at the camp made sure the camper has as much fun as possible and they encouraged people to solve problems on their own instead of just giving campers answers. They also promote physical activity with many outdoor breaks with many games to play, keeping kids active.

Planet Bravo is such an amazing camp. Not only did my child receive a solid foundation in robotics and computer coding but they found a wonderful and supportive community!

Planet Bravo has been a wonderful experience for our child from his first sessions while in elementary school, through middle school, as a CIT in high school, and now his second year as counselor. The camp programs are designed to make every camper feel successful and accepted in a nurturing and flexible environment. Plant Bravo is a gem!

This was my kids favorite summer program throughout elementary and middle school. Not only did they love it, but it taught them skills that they still use today. I have one son who is about to go to college for engineering and another son who is interested in a majoring in CompSci. Absolutely Planet Bravo had an influence. I can’t speak highly enough about their experience in this program.

Best STEM summer camp in the Los Angeles area, worth every penny

For 8 straight years, this was my son's happiest place on Earth. When he aged out of the program, he returned as a CIT and then a counselor. It continues to be the best kids' tech program we've ever seen. We give it five stars but it should also be five hearts! Much love for Planet Bravo!

I was a camper at Planet Bravo for ~4 or 5 years and an intern there afterwards for two. The summer camp was by far the most enjoyable camp I attended in my youth and helped ignite a long-term passion for computer programming which is now my chosen career path.
In addition to STEM, Planet Bravo also promotes active play (via one hour of daily activities like capture the flag or dodgeball) as well as daily social activities which keeps campers active and promoted the development of social connections and a healthy, active lifestyle.

Planet Bravo is an exceptional company that offers top-notch camps to educate students of all ages about STEM. Their commitment to fostering a love for learning and innovation is truly inspiring.

The team at Planet Bravo goes above and beyond to ensure that every student receives a comprehensive and engaging education in Technology. The camps are not only educational but also fun and interactive, making learning a truly enjoyable experience for the kiddos!

With experienced instructors and a hands-on approach to teaching, Planet Bravo empowers students to explore and discover the wonders of STEM in a supportive and encouraging environment. The impact of their programs is evident in the enthusiasm and passion that students develop for Technology!

I highly recommend Planet Bravo to anyone looking to enrich their knowledge and skills in Technology. Their camps are a fantastic opportunity for students to grow, learn, and thrive in a positive and nurturing setting. Thank you, Planet Bravo, for your dedication to inspiring the next generation of innovators and problem solvers!

I wholeheartedly recommend Planet Bravo to any parent seeking an enriching and enjoyable experience for their child. My daughter has been attending this camp since she was 9 years old, and the growth, excitement, and sense of belonging she has experienced throughout her journey with the camp has been truly remarkable.

From her first day as a camper, Planet Bravo fostered an environment where she felt welcomed, valued, and encouraged to explore her interests in technology. The diverse range of activities and projects offered provided her with hands-on experiences that ignited her passion for STEM fields.

As she progressed through the program, from a camper to a Counselor-in-Training and finally to a camp counselor, she continued to benefit from the supportive community and engaging curriculum. The camp not only nurtured her technical skills but also helped her develop leadership abilities, communication skills, and a strong sense of responsibility.

One of the best aspects of Planet Bravo is the balance between learning and fun. While my daughter was gaining valuable knowledge and skills in various areas of technology, she was also thoroughly enjoying herself. The camp counselors go above and beyond to create a fun and inclusive atmosphere where campers can make friends and collaborate on projects.

Overall, I cannot speak highly enough of Planet Bravo. It has played a significant role in shaping my daughter's interests, skills, and character, and I am grateful for the positive impact it has had on her life. I wholeheartedly recommend this camp to any parent looking for an enriching and enjoyable experience for their child.

Excellent staff/instructors, great topics, nice blend of in-class instruction and fun outdoor games so kids aren’t just in front of a screen all day. Amazing how much they learn a week at a time!

My two daughters thrived during their time in the Planetbravo summer camps for multiple summers. They enjoyed the process so much that they returned to support campers in there high school years and set goals to be able to work there when they were even older to help provide great and engaging learning for other kids like they had.

As a working mom with 3 very motivated kids, finding summer programs to challenge them and keep them engaged while also having fun was a priority. They have been in a variety of summer programs over the years. Planet Bravo has by far been one of the best STEM based programs we found. I have not only been impressed with the content and instructors, but also Planet Bravo leading the way in female inclusive programs. My child attended multiple camps consecutive summers from 3rd grade through 9th grade and really loved each year! We have watched the program grow and it has only gotten better! I highly recommend Planet Bravo to any parents looking for a camp that is engaging and fun for boys and girls.

They run such an amazing program. With a wonderful staff who are invested in students. My kids learned a lot from computer coding to video editing. Planet Bravo teaches kids to think critically and analyze the situation in a fun and engaging way. Best program!!!

My son attended for multiple years. Excellent program for a kid who needs a camp with a structured program.

Planet Bravo and Danny Pezzotta have provided the highest quality in educational camps for my three sons for years. We’ve enrolled in dozens of programs and none has compared to the positive energy, quality of learning, professionally run program as planet Bravo. Danny and his staff have inspired my boys and instilled a love for programming and game design!

I've had two sons spend several summers learning and coding with PlanetBravo. I love the program for many reasons- they learn real skills and have a blast doing so, they balance the time between sitting at the computer and going outside for activities and fun, the counselors are personable and helpful making real connections with the kids in their care, it is a well run organization with clear communication, easy drop off/pick up, and passion for what they do. I highly recommend this summer camp for all ages.

Planet Bravo changed my kiddo’s life! Dani started attending PB summer camp when they were 8 years old. I of course, was a nervous mom, wanting to make sure they had fun & were safe. I had absolutely no need to be concerned. PB was a fantastic experience for Dani & they learned so much. From being a camper at Planet Bravo for many years, they are now at an 4 yr. arts college majoring in animation. And it all started at Planet Bravo Santa Monica!

My son attended Planet Bravo for years as a camper, then went on to work there as a CIT and counselor. He’s now in college studying Computer Science and Machine Learning! Thank you, Planet Bravo.

PlanetBravo was a wonderful program for my son! He had an amazing time, and he learned so much.

PlanetBravo is a fantastic camp with incredibly knowledgeable teachers who clearly love what they do.

PlanetBravo teachers are the best! I recommend them to all of my friends that have kids

A fantastic program in the summer and during the school year that teaches children everything about computers starting from the basics to advanced coding and video game development!

PlanetBravo is an amazing camp with fun classes and an awesome staff!

I’ve been going to Planet Bravo since I was in 3rd grade and now I’m a CIT helping teach other kids! I kept coming back because of the amazing teachers and engaging programs!!!

Been my favorite camp for the last 10 years. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without PB.

My 8-year old was nervous about attending PlanetBravo because she didn't know anyone and was worried she would be the only girl in her group. She loved STEAM week so much that she asked to go for a second week and can't wait for next summer!

Such a welcoming experience for all the kids, with great counselors who truly care about the kids and the subjects they teach. Our kids have an ongoing text message with their PB friends, literally counting down the days each year until camp starts the following summer.
