In the charming state of North Carolina, where the Appalachian Mountains whisper ancient tales and the Atlantic Ocean sings the song of the surf, there exists an extraordinary tribe of children. They are the brave and daring, the hilarious and slightly crazed, they are... the Gaga Ball Warriors! Hmm, you might wonder, what in the world is a Gaga Ball Warrior? Well, my curious friend, let me enlighten you. These courageous children are the masters of the most thrilling game that has ever graced the playgrounds of North Carolina - Gaga Ball. It's a game of fast feet, quick thinking, and a whole lot of laughter. Meet our main Gaga Ball Warrior, a sprightly lad named Bubba. Bubba, with his mop of wild, untamed hair that matches the smoky blue of the Carolina sky, was the reigning champion of Gaga Ball. He was as quick as a squirrel, as crafty as a fox, and as funny as a stand-up comedian on a sugar high. Bubba's signature move was the "Tar Heel Tornado." With a twinkle in his sky-blue eyes, he'd whirl around like a miniature hurricane, sending the Gaga Ball zipping across the playground and his opponents running for the hills. Every day, under the golden Carolina sun and the watchful eyes of the Great Smoky Mountains, the Gaga Ball Warriors would gather in huddled, excited groups, ready for their daily dose of laughter, friendly competition, and a whole lot of dirt. Whether they won or they lost, the Gaga Ball Warriors knew that they'd always end the day with a lot of fun, a ton of memories, and just a little bit of North Carolina sunshine in their pockets.

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.
