In the golden state of California, where the sun shines like a big round orange lollipop and the beaches sparkle like crystal sugar under your feet, there's a group of sprightly kids who are not just ordinary kids. They're the California Marathon Munchkins! Their leader is a cool imaginary character named Dash, a quick-witted kangaroo with a jetpack. Each day, Dash and the Marathon Munchkins lace up their magical shoes that make them as swift as roadrunners. They zip through the magical redwood forests, leaving a trail of stardust behind, and dash along the sun-kissed beaches, racing with the playful waves. You see, they’re not just running for fun; they're training for the biggest event of the year – the Golden Gate Marathon. Oh, what a sight it is when the Marathon Munchkins race! It's like watching a rainbow come alive, each munchkin in their bright colored gear, running with the spirit of a thousand cheetahs. And Dash? Well, Dash becomes a blur, a lightning bolt of fun who inspires the munchkins to enjoy their run. Their laughter rings out across the valleys and their cheering echoes off the mountains. And at the end of each marathon, they gather at their secret clubhouse (a magical treehouse shaped like a giant sneaker!) for a feast of energy-boosting snacks: plates piled high with pancakes, bowls brimming with fresh fruits, and glasses filled with sunshine smoothies. So, if you're ever in California, keep your eyes peeled. You might just catch a glimpse of Dash and the Marathon Munchkins, streaking across the landscape, spreading joy, laughter, and the spirit of running with every mile they conquer.

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
