About us
In today’s fast changing environment, especially in the post-pandemic era, Sri Sri Sanskar Kendras (SSSKs) nurtures children to get back in touch with our value system, strengthens their life-skills, and develop them into better human beings.
Sri Sri Sanskar Kendra Programs create a strong foundation and enrich children with human values while creating an appreciation for traditions. This gap felt by the parents, society, and the nation is bridged by Sri Sri Sanskar Kendra Programs.
Sanskar Kendra compliments and strengthens the learnings in schools, institutions, and at home.
Respect for elders, caring, sharing, increase in concentration, better focus, improved discipline and patience, along with effortless participation, cooperation and teamwork is visible in children through regular practice and participation in these programs.
These values, attitudes and life-skills go a long way in their progress in life, paving the way to become value-based leaders.
The loving and playful sessions, full of joyful learning are such a healthy respite and nurture children to blossom fully. Most teachers and parents share that children enthusiastically look forward to these lively sessions.
Our inspiration
Just as a sapling needs watering to blossom fully, young children need ‘sanskars’ for nurturing human values.
— Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar ji
