HELPING KIDS BECOME LIFE CHAMPIONS

At the Arise & Shine Center we are taking education to the next level by empowering kids with mindfulness and life skills .  Our teaching isn’t just about imparting information.  We focus on Centering, which sets the stage for learning and then we proceed from there. We often see substantial results in short periods of time.

 

Our mission is to help kids become life champions through Centering.

 

The Centering Curriculum is based on authentic presence, bridge building, appeal to timeless principles and practice of social-emotional and life skills.  We teach kids to dream and think independently and outside the box, to honor yourself, all while staying grounded.  From breathing techniques to eye contact, we connect to our Self, others, and the world.

 

The Arise and Shine Center keeps what has worked in ‘regular’ school and charter school models, and discards what has not.  We focus on the new emerging metric of well-being and life-long happiness and growth.
