Mallakhamb Workshops in association with Vivekanand Kendra

  • These Mallakhamb Workshops were for the marginalized children. The work with children from Arunachal Pradesh and nearby areas not only took the health message to the remotest corner of India, but also helped in mainstreaming and national integration.

  • Mallakhamb workshops were conducted in India, reaching across socio-economic groups to those most marginalized.   Mallakhamb reached outside the mainstream to orphans, delinquents and the differently-abled, specially making a mark with visually-challenged boys and girls. The opportunity to climb the pole/rope, to those who were hitherto never allowed physical activity, opened whole new horizons. Improved mobility resulting in better appetite, sleep, and weight control enriched their quality of life. Aggression was channelized. This work resulted in immense cognitive, emotional and physical development, and improvement in courage, confidence, improved self-esteem, helped several such students scale the heights of success.

The message of ‘health through Mallakhamb’ reached to this population.
