MISSION
We are an all-inclusive
learning experience for
growth and development
of children and adults.
Seven principles that draw out the essence of our programs:
- Honour each learner, irrespective of age and need.
- The learner is at the centre of his or her own learning goals and its planning.
- We fuel each program, democratically, with goals OF the learner, BY the learner and FOR the learner.
- A complete experience of growth addresses the growth of the whole brain and whole body simultaneously.
- Every goal is achievable, and no goal is insignificant, be it academic, postural, behavioural, social, professional or skills for daily living.
- Abilities must be strengthened at the core and not just at symptomatic level.
- Transparent and honest communication with parents, learners, schools while maintaining the essential confidentiality.

Benefit from the Program: My child has become more focused, responsible & independent in her studies
Our Administration & Communication: Has always been smooth, comfortable & Approachable.
Our Teaching & Facilitation: : TA team has always been understanding & given my child time to get comfortable, patiently & calmly molded her to achieve her goals. They have helped her identify the process of studying & thinking on her own rather than feeding her with ready solutions.

I am extremely satisfied with the approach and Thinkashram has enhanced my son’s learning hugely. English is one of the IB subjects that he is managing with ease. His confidence towards this subject has grown immensely.

It is wonderful to work with Vaishali and her team. She understands the child’s issues accurately and does a fantastic job in fixing them.

"As a parent, to consult multiple people, sometimes leads to just more confusion rather than actual answers. But what really helped with kinesiology was that the root cause was addressed and not just the symptoms; this was really like magic."
– Parent of a 5 year old
Regardless of being in a pandemic when your child is going through something it is a stressful period and the pandemic only made it worse for us. But I feel that kinesiology really helped us to set a clear path and clear goals and we were extremely happy with results."
– Parent of a 5 year old
"I felt that since our child is so young this was a very gentle process and most of the things that we did were either easy movements to do or even passive where we could help. The 'homeplay' activities that we were given to us were so easy, it really helped us participate in the process with ease."
– Parent of a 5 year old
“Repetition of sentences has reduced; has become calm; open to new activities in school; he also did a really complicated school activity on his own with ease; uses both hands now: makes eye contact when talking even with strangers; anxiety has gone down; open to eating a variety of food.
– Parent of a 3 year old
“She reminds me to do the movements with her at home; becomes very calm and sleepy after the movements; actively participates in the movements"
– Parent of a 3 year old
"She is tolerant of other children being around her; overcoming her fear of the potty seat and sits happily on it for a good 10 minutes in the morning; allows me to comb her hair and even tie it and put clips; stayed well at her grandparents’ place for 4 days for the first time; makes eye contact; loudness of her speech has reduced"

She sits and engages in activities for twenty minutes. She does the activities independently – sieving flour, peeling potatoes; There is a huge improvement in her ability to stay calm and attend to tasks as well as improved sensory tolerance"

Just an hour back today a teacher on Samaira’s bus told me about an argument that happened between the girls on the bus where Samaira was involved. Apparently, she handled it very maturely and articulated her points so well that the other child also felt heard. The teacher asked me what I did in the last 2 years that Samaira had this 180 degree change in her personality. And I am like it’s Vaishali and her Brain Gym

As Alina is completing 9 years this Friday, I look back at her journey and can’t thank you enough for making such a huge impact in her life and mine. She is growing and her creativity is on another level these days. Her bonding with her father is improving and she is more accepting of people and their views with ease and grace these days.
