The sun-kissed state of Florida, sandwiched between the salty Atlantic and the gently whispering Gulf of Mexico, is a paradise where kids don't just build sandcastles, they also smash and serve volleyballs. In this land of orange groves and coral reefs, volleyball is more than just a sport, it's a way of life, as essential as sunscreen and as exciting as a rollercoaster ride in Orlando's fun-filled theme parks. Meet our hero, Volleyball Vinny, a funky flamingo with a fabulous feathered fro! Vinny's not your average bird. Oh no, this flamingo can flip, flop, and fly for every volleyball that sails under the everglade skies. He is the self-appointed coach, referee, and cheerleader for the volleyball-loving kids of Florida. A typical day might see Vinny squawking his signature "flaminGO" cheer as kids leap like leopards and dive like dolphins, their laughter interspersed with the rhythmic thud of volleyballs. The sun might kiss their noses red, but nothing stops these tenacious youngsters. Whether it's the hot sandy beaches of Miami, the vibrant parks of Tampa, or the tropical playgrounds of the Keys, you'll find them there, mirroring Vinny's footwork (or should we say, web-work?). They're a lively bunch, these kids. Some say it's the Vitamin D, others say it's the orange juice, but we know the truth. It's the magic of Volleyball Vinny. With a wink of his beady eye and a flick of his pink plumage, he fills them with a zesty zeal that's as infectious as a giggling gator. They don't just play volleyball, they live it, breathe it, dream it. So, if you ever find yourself in sunny Florida, listen out for the cheerful cacophony of kids at play, and remember, it's not just a game, it's a Volleyball Vinny adventure!

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
