While some brands tend to take it slow, post climbing up to catch their initial goal, it is not always true for others. Some names emerge out of passion and it is the passion that drives them to traverse through crossroads and decisions that are dense. Mind Mentorz is one such name which never stopped, or even paused upon meeting their immediate goals. The now-well -known chess coaching institute in Bangalore believes in the proliferation of cognitive skills in kids through consistent stimulation, has come a long way.
“It took three years to reach where we are, but the journey started when I was just seven” Praveen Sagar, Co-founder of Mind Mentorz, remembers being introduced to chess. He is an AGM (Arena Grandmaster) and shares the love for chess that drove him to be an integral part of the institution. He also believes in the relentless effort that Mind Mentorz puts to guide each child to find her/his passion. “We need to strengthen the cognitive abilities in children, so they receive every opportunity and mould them to help themselves. This is crucial in the developing stages.”
You can never have enough knowledge, there is always something that you do not know. Mind Mentorz enriches kids with ‘Edutainment’ - spreading knowledge through the medium of entertainment - a simple idea that has accelerated with time and picked up the pace. And now, after three years of focused efforts, the seed has sprouted and grown and is swaying to a different wind of change. Mind Mentorz is all set to franchise and explore further frontiers.
Setting Out for Franchising
According to the founders and brothers, Praveen and Pradeep, Mind Mentorz has come a long way. The idea of franchising came much later, once the academy succeeded in establishing its name in and around Bangalore. And the idea of spreading out and reaching a wider segment did not happen in a day but took sheer dedication and a bunch of like-minded people who share the same passion and purpose.
Not only chess, but the academy also stresses on other cognitive development programs like Robotics, Rubik’s Cube, Scratch Coding etc, that train the mind to deal with and respond to situations and circumstances in a balanced manner.
Kids absorb such complex recreational activities much more actively than the youth or the adults, making it easier to train them. The new-gen parents are also as much aware of the health benefits of mind gym as the founder brothers who believe that learning surpasses age limit. They are also very particular about both the physical and the mental health of developing kids. Mind Mentorz serves a medium that provides activities to engage children through recreational schemes and simultaneously develops their mental, emotional and behavioural patterns.
Mind Mentorz is the true definition of passion turning to profession. The trust, conviction and support of the parents and the kids, have always been the strengthening pillars of the academy and still serves as the wind beneath the wings that are aiming to spread out and soar high.
