About Us

The educational attitude is a positive attitude of the teacher combined with the attitude of acceptance towards oneself, the children, youth and parents. The Art of Living method builds up on the methodology that acceptance is the healthiest way to support a change in a human being. As a teacher, the aim is to be an inspiring example for children from whom they can learn. Therefore the adults need to work on their own attitudes to be a living example of what they are teaching.
