When the classrooms are closed, our kid-friendly meditation studio is open!  The ZenTotz Program provides unique opportunites for children to practice mindfulness and awareness.

Our day camps combine mindfulness practices with hands-on arts activities, yoga, and creative games.  During the program schedule, participants will practice mindful movement, develop compassion, discover creative talents, taste healthy foods, make quality friendships, and learn the benefits of stillness.

The ZenTotz Program presents the building blocks of mindfulness, which is the act of paying attention to the present moment.  This practice encourages the twinkling light inside of each human being to glow brightly!  Founder Jenny Blackwood wishes to liberate youth from negative emotions including depression, anxiety, addictions, and excessive stress which may develop during adulthood.

Our award-winning curriculum was designed for children ages 4-11.

PKS offers weekly themes in Mandarin based on STEAM, STEM, Science, Math, Maker, and art. We accept students in Kindergarten with minimal Mandarin language experience.
