Children are inspired to become the BEST they can be and often we receive amazing art work and testimonials as a result .

"When an egg breaks with an external force, life ends.

When an egg breaks from within, life begins.

GREAT THINGS ALWAYS BEGIN FROM WITHIN"

--Anonymous

Change from within is what SoulKids is all about.

I am a SoulKids Mentor, and when I read this quote, it instantly became a part of my life and I realized along the way that it helped me when interacting with people of all ages.

Today, I can say with confidence that I am a better wife, a less controlling mother and a more positive person.

I have read many inspiring quotes but this one truly touched my soul.

They step out of their comfort zones and do things they would never have imagined before!

During the training Mentors become more confident, more joyful, more creative, more able to say " YES " to life !

As one Mentor said " I feel more alive than I have ever felt and I cannot wait to scream this message from the tops of all mountains in the world"

Thankyou to all our Mentors - they took a step forwards and said YES to life ...and now will be able to give back to the children the world over .

Join them on 10/11 July and see the amazing effects they have on children.

2009-09-24T12:52:00.001+08:00

We Made It !!!

Yes we are SOULKIDS

Graduates !!

Learning is FUN on SoulKids!!

2009-09-24T12:47:00.000+08:00

Words cannot describe the fun the children have on SoulKids......and whilst having fun they learn valuable life lessons !

Martin- Mr Cool and Controlled !

2009-09-24T12:42:00.000+08:00

This just in from Martins mum marcia- thanks for sharing !!

-------------------------
Tuesday morning after the SoulKids weekend when driving to school, Martin asked his mum: “when can I go back to SoulKids?” and Marcia asked him why? So he said: “well, I have a story to share.

Yesterday at school, two of my friends wanted to do a race: who would reach the classroom first would be the winner. They started running but I just kept walking. But they were attacking each other, trying to prevent the other from succeeding.

They were keeping each other down, just like the Crabs story of SoulKids.

And although I just walked, I was still the first to arrive in the classroom!”

Marcia and her husband David were really impressed. “Amazing” she said to me, “you guys ( on SoulKids ) are making an impact!”

----------------------

How wonderful- stories change the outlook on life for SoulKids !!

The Crab story teaches children not to spend time and effort in pulling others down / being jealous, but to spend time on looking at your strengths and encouraging others !!

Well done Martin - you will go far and cross many finish lines in FIRST place !!

Nancy got her feet wet !!!

2009-09-24T12:38:00.000+08:00

Congratulations to NANCY!

She graduated as a SoulKids Mentor only a month ago, and already she is out there with the children and changing lives.....

Nancy truly WALKS the talk ...she is a shining example to us all and we are SO SO PROUD to have her on the team !!

Daan the Courageous !!

2009-09-24T12:34:00.000+08:00

Daan attended SoulKids at the weekend and then on the Monday this happened.....from his father!

------------------------

Daan went to school on Monday morning and he insisted on bringing his SoulKids certificate. On Monday mornings the school starts with the so-called assembly where all the children of the school (aged 6 – 12) gather and children who have something to share can take the stage.

Daan (7 years) walked up the stage, showed his certificate and told the audience that he had been to SoulKids last weekend and that what he had learned was how to really enjoy his life!

A few children reacted very negatively.... but Daan just stood there ,putting into practice his new learnt skill how to deal with negativity: hear it but do not accept it.

-----------

Well done Daan - OUR SUPER HERO!!!!

A true SoulKid in action !!

Daan - you are VERY SPECIAL !! Go Go Go !!

Love

Sally and Vikas

More SoulKids in action!

2009-07-12T07:07:00.001+08:00

Congratulations to Richa, Safiah and Ai-Ling for running a fabulous SoulKids workshop in June.

Shaun loved the Giant story- you must overcome your fears to face reality.

Keep on trying and never give up !

Jon loved the Sunflower story - just be yourself and do not imitate others.

He also learnt ways to block negative words and to become more self confidence.

Where as the Parents commented that SoulKids is a magic word....if children were not behaving appropriately - the parents just say " and what did you learn at SoulKids ?" and immediately the children change !!!

JUST LIKE MAGIC !!

Everyone has fun - the children , the Mentors and the parents get new tools as well !!

The course may be over- the memories linger!

2009-06-27T07:47:00.001+08:00

At SoulKids , the children understand that they are Special ,and that they have the potential to follow their dreams.
They feel that they are Special and they love being with the Mentors.

2009-06-23T15:06:00.000+08:00

At SoulKids , the children learn the importance of TEAMWORK
They have the opportunity to lead as well as to follow.

Sometimes they may be " blind " other times " injured" and each time the TEAM has to achieve its task.
Children learn through FUN and activities and the life lessons remain with them forever.

Determination

2009-06-23T15:01:00.000+08:00

Children are taught the importance of saying YES to life and to NEVER giving up !

Look at these 2 beautiful girls who are demonstrating " Bruce Lee's" dedication and commitment to being the BEST they can be!

The children step out of their comfort zone and do fun things - learning life skills along the way !

I AM SPECIAL !!!!

2009-06-23T14:58:00.000+08:00

AT SoulKids - everyone gets to know that they ARE SPECIAL !!

Look at the passion in the faces of the Children !
They leave SoulKids knowing that they are SPECIAL for who they are !!

SoulKids brings out BEAUTY

2009-06-23T14:55:00.000+08:00

SoulKids brings out the BEAUTY from within !

The children are GLOWING with happiness on the course.

Here is an Inspirational poem by Arjun- one of our SoulKids !

He loves SoulKids so much he just keep coming back to see us all !

Dreams of our heart

Dreams of our heart can be fulfilled by hard work
Hard work is just good ol’ inspiration
Inspiration is belief
And belief is just the power of our mind

Children are being tortured as we speak,
Their life is very bleak,
We can help them,
We can’t change their lives for them,
But we can help them,

Love, safe home and education
Not just deprivation
They are their rights
Children are scientists of the future
Not slaves of our desires

Embrace nature, that’s it
Don’t harm it, embrace it
Help it take care of itself

Wars are just like two people feuding
There is never a winner, just losses
Not of material things, of lives
To many, war is glory
To few, war is pointless

There are many paths to be walked,
Many choices to be made,
But we must choose the right one,
Listen to the dreams of our heart,
See with the eyes of compassion,
Walk the path of fire with courage
And reach the dreams of our heart.

Message from the latest children who went through SoulKids !

They loved their Mentors- Anton, Anu and Richa.....

------------------------------

Thank you so much for introducing us to soul-kids! it was
incredibly enjoyable, and fun. it opened my eyes to things i have never noticed
before, or things i never understood or always took for granted. It can also
appeal to children beyond fairy tails and Lula-byes (I hope that's you spell it :p).
It is amazingly inspiring and it changed the point of view of my
life. At first I honestly thought it wouldn't be as fun or amazing as it really
was. as i said it opened my eyes, and WILL open so many more.
If you and other soul-kids instructors ever wonder if you ever made a difference in any one else's life, you have!
Any one of the children that attended soul-kids now has the knowledge and
insights on how to take care of problems and solve any kind of conflict because
of what you have taught us.

I just want to say, thank you!!!
Sophia Uy

7 year old Roshni and her twin brother Rikhil commented as follows;

Rikhil and I loved the stories you told us.
We want to go back.
Can you please email when we can come again.

Thanks

A Message from Our Founder

2009-03-04T14:46:00.001+08:00

It is said that we grow to our highest potential only when we have the courage to step out of our comfort zone and to help others to be the best they can be.

As long as we are thinking only about ourselves, no matter how much we progress, we still remain limited within the circle of our own comfort and mind. We remain small.

When we expand our vision and actions to include future generations, we actually leave behind the best in us for all time to come. This is the legacy we must pass on.

In these difficult times, we must give to future generations what we have learnt the hard way - the skills to be happy, confident and successful.

This is what SoulKids is all about. We grow to be the best that we can be, and we become mentors who pass on these valuable life-skills to children everywhere.

This is the way to become bigger than what you are now; this is the way to be the best you can be. I invite you to accept the challenge. Become a SoulKids Mentor for generations to come.

Thank you.

Vikas Malkani
Creator of SoulKids™

Richa- from India

2009-02-20T15:10:00.000+08:00

"Its so inspiring to work with such a dedicated team of individuals - all of whom have so much passion about working with Kids and taking SoulKids to as many children as possible !"
Thankyou to all our newly graduated SoulKids Mentors ! With love and gratitude Sally and Vikas .

Another SoulKids Mentor - Richa was interviewed and her comments are below.

1 - What made you want to train to be a SoulKids Mentor?

What differentiates two persons is not their academic or financial background but their attitude towards life. And no one teaches children how to live life or approach life. I was looking for life skills which would empower children to live life to the fullest and I found it in Soulkids. As a Soulkids Mentor I am able to teach children the essential life skills which allow them to lead a happy and successful life.

2 - How did it affect the way you communicate with and listen to children?

Every child is a unique individual and has his or her own thinking. Instead of overcoming it with my own thoughts I am 'listening' more to them. My role is to provide them with diverse experiences and not conclusions. It is no more just an adult-child interaction but a conversation between equals, only difference being that one has experience and the other crazy ideas...

3 - What is the most rewarding part of being a SoulKids Mentor?

Difference between a happy child and a 'forever' happy child is his unyielding self-belief. As a Soulkids Mentor I help him realise that self-belief. If I can make a child believe in himself then I think I have achieved what I set out to do.

ARLENE - from Canada.

2009-02-20T15:06:00.001+08:00

Arlene Wiggin from Canada- talks to the press in a recent interview!

1/What made you want to train to be a SoulKids Mentor?

I attended a talk by Vikas Malkani, the creator of SoulKids and was inspired by what I heard and could see the true passion and purpose behind this program. I was ready for a personal journey to enrich my life and I signed up immediately. I also felt that I would be a wonderful attribute to SoulKids with my genuine love and passion for children along with my previous teaching experience. Children are fascinating and rewarding to teach and a delight to learn from. Their pure innocence, willing to learn and thirst for knowledge enriches one’s life. As a mother of three teenagers I felt that the course would help me to become a better, more understanding and patient parent.

2/How did it affect the way you communicate with and listen to children?

I now talk and listen from my heart. I talk less and listen more. I have become a much better communicator with everyone in my life. Children learn by example so I make sure that I am the best that I can be. Lead by example and others will follow.

3/What is the most rewarding part of being a SoulKids Mentor?

The opportunity to be able to share what I have learnt from my SoulKids Training. This program has been transformational for me. I am truly passionate about sharing the teachings of SoulKids with children and adults too.

Anton - From Holland

2009-02-20T15:01:00.000+08:00

Our team of Soulkids Mentors is very international !!
Here is an interview with ANTON BROERS

1 - What made you want to train to be a SoulKids Mentor?

My wife Cate took a meditation course with Vikas and after the second class she came home and said: “Anton, I have found the course for you! It is about life and it is with children.”

Cate knows me well - she knows I love children and she knows it is my prime objective to live a meaningful life - so I did not really need more information. After visiting the introductory talk by Vikas I immediately signed up.

The SoulKids mentor training transforms your life. The end result is great – the ability to teach children valuable life lessons that grow them into confident, happy and successful kids. But before you are a mentor, you will have to change yourself. A mentor walks the talk, i.e. lives as he/she teaches. The training reveals life’s most important lessons in a very easy, kids-friendly, fun way. So I signed up not only to become a kids mentor but also to grow myself and to learn about how you can live the life of your own dreams. And I have received all of that. The mentor training is true inspiration.

2 - How did it affect the way you communicate with and listen to children?

I have always been a very playful person, young at heart. Playing with children, including my two sons Max and Daan, is one of my biggest hobbies. If you visit the swimming pool at our club on Sunday afternoon, you will see what I mean. So I have always had that connection and that easy communication with children. The training has given me the insights and the tools to stimulate children and also to help them overcome what they perceive as problems. I now have the words, I know better ways to explain or express myself in an easy way to give useful guidance to children in whatever situation.

Let me give you an example. My son Max took the SoulKids class. He knows all the stories – only heard them once! – and he only needs reminding of the story title to remember the relevant lessons. One of the stories is about the Grand Canyon. And the key lesson of this story is: life gives you what you give life. So if you are nice to people, they will be nice to you but also if you are rude to others, others will be rude to you.

So Max comes home and he is complaining about a boy who is calling him all kinds of names lately. We listen to him but apparently he just needed to tell his story because soon after he starts to play with his brother Daan. Things get out of hand a little and Max starts scolding Daan. “Max”, I asked him “do you remember the story of the Grand Canyon?” And he confirms he does. “So do you understand why this other boy is being rude to you?” I continue. “Yes, dad. I know. I get back from life what I gave to Daan just now. I will watch my mouth from now on.” And guess what? Daan is (almost) free from being called names but the same goes for Max. The boy does no longer harass him.

3 - What is the most rewarding part of being a SoulKids Mentor?

The most rewarding part is the possibility to make a real difference in the lives of children. SoulKids transforms children and sets them up to live the life of their dreams, to live a happy life. And the great thing is that, as a mentor, you always see opportunities to inspire children (and adults). You can have an impact on other people’s lives every day, not only in the SoulKids class.

Secondly, becoming a mentor has changed my own life. I am much more focused now on my own life dreams and much more aware of what it takes to make them come true. And in my professional life I have become more effective and I have greater methods to inspire and stimulate my team.

SoulKids Mentors interviewed

2009-02-20T14:56:00.000+08:00

Recently a leading magazine did some interviews with Mentors...
Here are some snippets from JENNY ONG ! Enjoy !

Mentor:

1 - What made you want to train to be a SoulKids Mentor?

Initially, I was intrigued with the SoulKids program because it sounded like fun! I figured that if I didnt qualify to do the program myself ( as I am too old and not a kid any more ) , the next best thing was to get into the program by being a mentor!

Later on, as I found out more about the mentor program through Vikas' presentation, I realised that it was something that all of us needed to understand and learn the wisdom, in order for us to lead a meaningful and successful life, inwardly and outwardly. We have always wanted a better world, what better way to do it than to be the change we want to see?

2 - How did it affect the way you communicate with and listen to children?

I was brought up in an environment where children are seen and not heard. As a adult, my interaction with children is minimal as I do no have children of my own, nor does my job require me to work with them. As i was going through the program, i discovered that real communications with children are very important, and it matters alot to children that we listen to them, and communicate with them on an equal platform. Now, I find myself gravitating towards children, whether they are my friends, my relatives' or even children I meet at the supermarket or the restaurants with their parents, and they too respond and engage me in conversations easily and actively. It's amazing what you can learn from children.

3 - What is the most rewarding part of being a SoulKids Mentor?

That I can still be whatever I want to be as a adult! I am now living a most wonderful experience, of being the most positive person I know, living a stable, joyful and successful life inwardly and outwardly. The gift of being able to share with children this wisdom and help them be aware of the infinite possibiilities of their potential, is very humbling and powerful at the same time. On top of this, my own relationships at home, with my friends and colleagues, have all transcended to one that is more loving, accepting and open.

Comments from Tatsuki- aged 9

2009-02-20T08:31:00.000+08:00

Tatsuki is from Japan - and here are his comments from a recent magazine interview all about SoulKids and his experience.

1 - What was the most inspiring thing you learnt during the course?

I like the story of “Fear Giant” the most. It is a story of young soldier who fights a giant. I learnt that I can overcome my fear if I open my mind. Also, I learnt that my fear is gone when I move forward and face the fear.

2 - Which part of the course was the most fun?

I enjoyed the game of carrying adult persons together with other kids the most in the SoulKids course. It was the game of practicing the team work. My team was asked to carry the teacher (Vikas) who was very tall and heavy. I did not think that we could do it, but when we collaborated as one team, we could successfully carry him .

3 - Which part was the most challenging?

I remember that one of the games was the most challenging for me. It was the game which guides and leads a team member who wears an eye mask (so he is blind) and we can only do verbal communication. I played the role of leading the team member who cannot see. I talked and guided him to step up and down obstacles, go straight, turn right or left, jump across obstacles, and reach the goal. It was tough for me as I felt I was responsible for him, and I did not want to misguide him.

4 - Did you feel different after the course? If so, in what way?

Yes, I did. I learnt the power of team work. Even if it looks very challenging task, I now believe that it is possible to do it with help of the team member. I can trust my team member when I play sports like basketball.

5 - Why would you recommend this course to your friends?

It is because the SoulKids course is really fun. We can listen to interesting stories. We can have friendship with others – in fact, I had good friends of two boys. We can talk and play with Mentors.

International and Inspirational

2008-08-20T13:51:00.000+08:00

I wanted to congratulate the latest SoulKids Mentors who started their training last weekend.

We have a fantastic team of motivated individuals who are all keen to first learn more about themselves and their own lives/ motivations/ desires/ loves /beliefs / conditionings / fears/ limitations ....
and then to move on ... grow ..... and ultimately to " walk the talk" by supporting SoulKids and children everywhere to be the best they can be!

We are a truly international group with participants from the following countries:
Singapore, England,Holland,India,Switzerland, France, Japan, Malaysia,Canada,Norway,and the Philippines!

We welcome everyone with love and gratitude into the team ...and already we are all leaning " WE are SPECIAL " just the way we are !

Thankyou for the FUN , ENERGY and PASSION shown during the training!

SoulKids are talented individuals!!

2008-07-15T21:53:00.001+08:00

Look at this beautiful painting " Indian Beauty " by ARJUN - one of our SoulKids - aged 11.
He is so talented and we are all SO ..SO.. SO.. PROUD of him and his ability.
Arjun - you are SPECIAL and you ROCK !!!!

When asked where his inspiration came from this is what he wrote...

I draw my inspiration from the world I live in and the world that I observe. There are many inspiring things in daily life like the landscape, people, nature, flowers & animals. I am also observing how people look, think and interact with their environment.
For this painting, my inspiration came from the Indian-Himalayan countryside where cows graze happily and mountains stand tall, where frogs do wonderful acrobatics and children skip along. In this picture two women have come to the riverside to bring water home to their families. A flock of swans migrate from wintry lands in search of warmer places.
This painting reminds me that we human beings are but only one of the many species on this planet earth. And if we live harmony with nature then we have a spiritual experience and we live in balance and happiness.
Arjun Chatrath

Our Mentors are Special too !!

2008-07-06T23:35:00.000+08:00

Meet Eng Heng and Sharon....2 wonderful Soulkids Mentors.( in the centre,pictured with founders- Vikas Malkani and Sally Forrest)

Their comments show that they receive so much from giving to the Soulkids !

Sometimes in life we just think about what can we GET from life...here are wonderful examples of people who focus on what they want to GIVE ...and then as a result get so much !!

In SoulKids, we believe you are never too old to grow and learn and that you can learn from everyone and anyone !
The children on SoulKids teach us many amazing things and we are so grateful to be a part of it !

From Sharon.."SoulKids has been a great experience for me. I was able to teach the children life skills and to reach out to more children.
From teaching the children, I have learnt to be better myself in whatever I do. I feel joyful because the feedback and testimonials of the children and parents show me there is positive transformation."

From Eng Heng " Besides learning how to reach out to children, SoulKids has been an eye-opener for me in my personal growth.
With each training class, I have learned to know myself better and to grow to be a better person.
My experiences of seeing children transform and grow positively has truly touched my heart. The testimonials from them and their parents further bear evidence of the benefits they have gained."

Thanks to the wonderful SoulKids Mentors like Eng Heng and Sharon, for making a difference in the lives of so many children!

Step Out of your comfort Zone

2008-06-23T10:57:00.000+08:00

During SoulKids , the children are given the opportunity to grow by doing things they do not normally do....they relish the experience to "Step outside their comfort Zone"

More pics and comments....

Maybe we should do a class for ADULTS...how many of us try new things daily? Or do we stick to the safe/known/routines of life.....

My daughter is more open, attentive and listen and also speaks more confidently. It's amazing. For within a day she is able to shift her beliefs and confidence level. She enjoys every moment and is looking forward for the second day as it's learning through fun way - Mary, mother of Eunice Tan, 9

"It's a joy to be able to share life-skills with children and see them discover their hidden potential...."

2008-06-08T19:51:00.000+08:00

Soulkids was a great experience and an opportunity for me to learn to control my mind, my feelings and my emotions. I used to be a bit hot tempered and a bit soft in the mind. I used to get picked upon often and I used to be a bit afraid of bullies. during soulkids, i learnt to strengthen my mind and to always face my fears. I also realized that everyone is special in their own way. Through all the lessons learnt at Soulkids, I have become a more self aware and self confident person. i am conscious that my words affect people and my thoughts affect me. I am grateful to Vikas & Sally for teaching me on how to live a positive life.

- Arjun, 11 years old

Testimonials

Shruti Somani, mother of Sudeeksha (aged 8)

“The program emphasized on building leadership qualities in children. It combines leadership with awareness and I know these young people will definitely turn out to be very successful people and fantastic human beings.”

Brijinder Singh, parent

“I earnestly believe that if there is anything a parent can give to their child, it is self belief and that is exactly what my child received by attending the classes conducted by Mr. Malkani and his team.”

Namrata Suri, mother of Parul (aged 7)

“Your program is fantastic, the effects tremendous. The kids do not need to be pushed by mothers to go to the class!”

“If your child is suffering from a dip in self confidence, get his confidence levels surging with Vikas Malkani’s self confidence SoulKids workshop”

Hindustan Times Newspaper, India

“The confidence skills imparted at the workshop are superlative. The emphasis laid on believing in one’s own inherent abilities is a very positive reinforce. I personally appreciate the stress laid upon building a people-orientated positive personality.As a result of doing this workshop, my daughter expresses herself more confidently and makes a conscious effort to overcome her own fears and not to accept defeat in any sphere of her life. I am sure these qualities will help her go a long way”

Gaurav Wadhawan, father of Parul (aged 7)

“The program is very effective. It has shown her how to be a good leader and successful in life, and most importantly to be a good human being. I suggest to all parents that their child attends. Start them as young as possible and watch them grow into effective leaders and very good human beings.”

Mona Monga, mother of Devika (aged 11)
