Empower Teens to lead their life | Experience CoVersity for a Week

What happens when teens are put in charge to lead their life? Visiting and staying at Campus with Aarohi community is a wonderful way for teenagers and their parents to experience self directed learning.

What Aarohi offers is a space, an environment, a culture of open doing and learning. This typically leads to you not only exploring many things but more importantly exploring, knowing and discovering oneself.

You would have an almost infinite choice of things to do along with learners of all ages. You may explore various interests like music, reading, writing, exploring nature, adventure, playing all kinds of games, drama, dance, electronics, masonry, carpentry, art and the list continues. There is also enough time and space to make friends or be with pets. You may try a hand at art or photography or baking cakes and breads or do barbecue. Get your hands dirty by working in the fields, growing vegetables, maintaining the nursery. Or simply gaze into the skies, into eternity and at times simply do nothing!

Teens lead their life by not only exploring many things but more importantly exploring, knowing and discovering oneself. Add to this the flavor of community living – which is a transformative journey for many of us.
