I teach children to disconnect from the noise and build the inner discipline that protects them for a lifetime. ## Photos and videos - ![Twenty minutes of silence is mandatory for my young students, with no exceptions. It doesn't matter if they yawn, sleep, or fall. They must learn to be aware and mindful in their own presence, a skill that will serve them for their entire lives.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/60d385fd-2433-4752-a917-27f1904afdc8) - ![This is the reality of teaching children meditation.

For children who are too young for formal meditation, this is the closest and most effective alternative. It connects them to our culture and their own inner sound.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/3e133eec-bbaf-4abd-9cf8-d1cc210a021d) - ![Each child progresses at their own pace.

Whether they yawn, fidget, or sleep during that first 20 minutes of silence, they are learning the most important lesson of all: how to be present in their own company. I do not offer daycare; I offer a space where they learn to conquer their own impulses, one breath at a time. Many parents ask how I get energetic children to sit for an hour. The answer is simple: I treat them with the same respect and discipline I give adults. We do not use 'gamified' yoga to keep them entertained. We use the resonance of Sanskrit shlokas and the practice of chanting to ground them. ### Why this approach works * **The Foundation:** We start with chanting to focus the mind. Once the sound settles, the body follows. * **The Schedule:** Classes are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 5 PM to 6 PM at my studio in Rajarajeshwari Nagar. * **The Expectation:** I do not sugarcoat the process. It takes time. Some students take months to sit in silence, but when they do, the transformation is real. They stop reacting to every distraction and start acting with intent. If you believe your child has it in them to develop this kind of internal stability, bring them to the mat. We have a strict shoes-off, phones-off policy. It is a temple-like atmosphere with teak flooring designed for focus, not play. Come prepared for your child to work, evolve, and grow. ## About Harsha Nagaraj I guide children to find their center using the same ancient principles I teach to adults. It requires a balance of being tough, soft, and rough, but watching them transform from restless to steady is the most rewarding part of my day.
