Gurukulam for Kids
The Agasthyam Gurukulam training is a holistic journey for children, nurturing their evolution not only physically but also mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. In this one-month residential program, kids immerse themselves in a disciplined, supportive environment where every aspect of their growth is nurtured. Through Kalaripayattu and traditional practices, they develop physical strength and agility, while also sharpening mental focus and resilience.
The program emphasizes emotional intelligence and self-awareness, teaching kids how to handle challenges with patience and grace. Spiritual values are woven into their daily routine, helping them connect to deeper principles of respect, gratitude, and oneness. With 129 years of tradition behind us, Agasthyam’s Gurukulam experience is more than training; it’s a journey of inner and outer transformation, empowering them to grow into balanced, self-assured, and resilient individuals.
Join us to give your child a month that will enrich their body, mind, and soul in a way only Agasthyam can.
