The Origin of SoulKids

SoulKids was created by Vikas Malkani, the founder of SoulCentre and a best-selling international author.

Vikas is a teacher of life skills, having inspired countless individuals that have come to him, to live life fully and to live to one’s highest potential.

Having worked with many adults to understand their challenges in life, he noticed that many of the issues adults faced stemmed from childhood beliefs.

He dedicated himself to developing a program that would work with changing the beliefs that children carried about themselves, about what was possible and about what they could achieve.

As such, SoulKids was developed in 2003 and has since been successfully expanding in many countries due to numerous requests from parents and schools.

SoulKids was brought to Singapore in November 2004 by SoulCentre, founded by Vikas Malkani (India) and Sally Forrest (United Kingdom).

Due to overwhelming demands for more classes, Vikas Malkani embarked on a SoulKids Mentors Program in early 2007, to empower and train Mentors who carry his ‘energy and spirit’ to be able to benefit as many children as possible with the SoulKids training.

The Power of SoulKids







SoulKids is unique because we teach life-skills such as independence, discipline, teamwork and self-awareness.

SoulKids is supra-academic as we supplement traditional academic training - we are targeted towards making the child a better person.

The children are nurtured to develop a healthy level of self-esteem that arises from within them and is not dependent on external possessions or events.

This confidence and sense of responsibility is then channeled to creative pursuits.

SoulKids works in making the child whole and complete by giving them a better understanding of themselves, how their minds work and how they are responsible for their own action.

The result is that children experience an increased sense of self-awareness and self-esteem.

In short, SoulKids is different as it works with the inner-child, creating transformation from within.

Once children are different from the inside, the results naturally show in other aspects of their life.

Children who have undergone the training find the program to be extremely enjoyable and entertaining.

While having fun, they learn the lessons that allow them to live a successful, happy and joyful life.


Some of the qualities that SoulKids aims to bring out in every child are:





- Discipline & Dedication
- Self Effort (Being Action oriented)
- Responsibility
- Confidence ( Self-Esteem instead of External Esteem)
- Creativity
- Positive Thinking
- Gentleness (Kindness)
- Faithfulness
- Patience
- Peace and Inner Calmness
- Joy (Happiness)
- Love (Compassion)


Parents have the opportunity to interact with the Officially Certified SoulKids Mentor after the course during an interactive session, to learn how to supplement their own parenting ability and support the learnings and new skills seen in their own children.

What is SoulKids?

SoulKids is a specially designed experiential program targeted at children aged 6 to 16.
It aims to transform children in very short period of time.
The inner beliefs and thought patterns of children are explored and positive changes made.


Training techniques include games, play, exercises and stories to develop a myriad of skills.
The program is aimed to help children step into the world as complete, confident individuals.
Classes are conducted in 2 different age groups (6 to 11 & 12 to 16 years).


The children get opportunities to mix with other children of different ages where they learn to work as a team, understand to lead and to follow, and work with people who are not like them.


The 2 full-day class is usually held over the weekends and we also have weekday modules that work from Monday to Friday, each session being of 2½hrs duration.

There are also special classes for companies and groups where a 1 day intensive program is taught.
Teaching techniques also include positive self-talk, developing self-reference, connecting with the senses, nurturing stillness, building confidence, facing their fears and learning team skills.
The SoulKids program is available in 3 different specialized modules.


1. Self–Confidence

2. Creativity

3. Awareness Quotient


In all the 3 modules, apart from the specialized training given on the chosen subject, children become aware of how their mind works and how they are responsible for their action.


By working with children of different ages and in teams, they learn what it means to be an effective leader and a supportive team-player. They become aware of the need to communicate effectively with one another.


SoulKids is a transformational program and some of the life skills they learn are the following.
They learn to strengthen their self-belief and increase self-confidence.

They become aware of how their mind works and how they are responsible for their actions as well as to take action to achieve their desires .

Life/Nature is the greatest teacher and learning and improving becomes a way of life.

They emerge with a better understanding of themselves and become a better person through this program.
