These sessions help improve rhythm, coordination, and confidence, while also encouraging creativity and self-expression. Regular dance practice fosters teamwork and discipline, making it a joyful and impactful part of the school day. It’s not just about movement—it’s about movement with meaning and connection.

Yoga is an integral part of the daily schedule at EArtH Foundation, offering students a peaceful space to cultivate mindfulness, physical well-being, and inner balance. Each day, students engage in meditation and a variety of asanas, improving their flexibility, posture, and concentration.
