Excellent in Youth Sports, Culture & Educations.
JAE Academy Greece is a non‑profit association founded in 2016 near Ancient Olympia, dedicated to inspiring young people through sports, culture, and education; our Olympic Immersion Program (2026–2027) offers schools and Erasmus+ partners a unique opportunity to combine athletic youth training, cultural heritage experiences, and innovative learning in a safe environment just 2 km from Kourouta Beach, with full board accommodation, supervised group activities, and direct flight access via Araxos Airport that reduces transfer times to under an hour, making our program the ideal choice for international school trips, camps, and KA2 collaborations across Europe.
At JAE Academy, we believe every school trip should be more than travel — it should be a journey of growth; by combining sports, culture, and education in the heart of Greece, we create safe, inspiring, and unforgettable experiences that connect students to the Olympic spirit, local traditions, and international friendships, ensuring lasting impact for youth groups and Erasmus+ partners alike.
