North Carolina, or NC for short, is a state so full of charm and sunshine that even the sunflowers tilt their heads in fascination. It's known for its mandible-dropping mountains, serene sandy beaches, and let's not forget the world-famous, lip-smacking barbecues. But what really thrills the kids of NC, more than the mouthwatering barbecues, is the ever-enticing sailing activity. Let's take a fun ride into the world of these young North Carolinian sailors, shall we? Picture this. A swarm of kids, all as eager as ants on a sugar rush, waiting to hop onto sailboats. Their eyes gleam with excitement, their hearts flutter like hummingbirds. Now, let's meet Captain Puddlewhisker. He's got a beard as fuzzy as a caterpillar and he's as funny as a clown on a unicycle. He's the imaginary guide for our little sailor gang. He's quite a character, that Puddlewhisker! With his imaginary pet parrot, Squiggles, perched atop his floppy hat, he commands the sail with a sense of humor that could make even a crab crack up. Under Puddlewhisker's guidance, these little marine masters conquer the azure waters of NC with their boats, leaving trails of laughter in their wake. It's a sight even funnier than seeing a sea gull trying to tap dance! These kids have so much fun sailing, they swear they see mermaids laughing along with them, and dolphins clapping their flippers in applause. So, if you ever find yourself in NC, don't be surprised if you see a child, standing proudly at the helm of a boat, steering it as confidently as Captain Puddlewhisker himself, while laughing like they've just heard the funniest undersea joke.

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.
