About Us

About & Team

Superbase is more than just a cool space where kids play games and sports.

Overview

A new vision for raising thriving kids.

Superbase is part of the Golden Square — a new vision for community that calls for an ecosystem supporting the holistic development of young children (ages 3–17), identifying and harnessing their special talents and guiding their Mind-Body-Spirit journeys in a way that sets them up for a lifetime of happiness and success.

Our Founder, Arman Rousta, developed this system based on his own experience growing up as a student-athlete — feeling the gaps in our society and educational system, and wanting to find better ways to support youngsters on their journeys.

What We Offer

Programs for every kid — athletes, creatives, builders & explorers.

Superbase offers programs for young athletes, creatives, and nature/science-oriented kids — but everyone has to be active physically. We need to collectively limit "the screen-time disease" that our youth is faced with, while preserving sacred traditions and values that are sound.

We offer aftercare programs, camps, special experiences, and a competitive Academy for those who aspire for greatness and need the proper forum to develop high-level skills.

Instructional Sports
Coaching, drills, and unstructured play for kids of all skill levels.
Creative & STEM
Robotics, art, dance, building bricks, broadcasting, and more.
Camps & Aftercare
Summer camps, holiday camps, and aftercare with daily structure.
