At ALOHA, we understand that children learn differently and that their brains have two hemispheres – the left and right – which carry out very different functions. The left hemisphere is the logical side, responsible for language, analysis, numeracy, theory and deduction, whilst the right hemisphere is the creative side and encourages perception, emotion, imagination and intuition. Unfortunately, many children fail to integrate the two halves of their brain, which can have a negative impact on their academic progress. That’s why ALOHA has developed the Mental Math system, to help children bring the two sides of their brain together and make the most of their learning potential. At ALOHA, we understand that every child is different and that it is essential to encourage them to use both sides of their brain. Our Mental Math system has been designed to integrate the two hemispheres of your child’s brain, so that they can make the most of their learning abilities.

We understand that learning dance is not only about the technical skills, it's also about building character.
