Buchanan's journey began by sharing his knowledge with preschool owners and principals in Mumbai on 18th Sept, targeting children aged 1.5 to 7 years. What followed was an ambitious six-city tour of India, including Hyderabad (Sept. 19), Bangalore (Sept. 20), New Delhi (Sept. 21), Chandigarh, and Jaipur (Sept. 22).
In an exclusive interview, Buchanan explained the core of the RSGK program, describing it as "a meticulously designed Australian program created by pediatric occupational therapists, tailored to meet the unique needs of young children." Notably, this program has seen immense success not just in Australia but in several countries worldwide.
The heart of RSGK lies in imparting fundamental movement skills to young children through 13 diverse sports activities. Buchanan emphasized, "This program is one of the finest globally, offering significant physical, social, emotional, and psychological benefits to young children. It also imparts invaluable life lessons and discipline."
Ready Steady Go Kids India has already set up five centers in Mumbai and Vadodara, and their vision for the next five years is nothing short of audacious: to establish over 150 franchisee-based programs nationwide, complete with a specialized curriculum tailored for preschool children. Moreover, preschools all across India can seamlessly integrate this program into their offerings, ensuring easy access for children and parents alike.
Jay Shah, Co-founder of The Sports Gurukul and CEO of Ready Steady Go Kids India, weighed in on the current state of sports in India. He believes that the lack of a sporting culture in the country isn't solely due to a lack of facilities or funds but primarily due to a dearth of innovative ideas and initiatives.
Buchanan's RSGK program offers a unique blend of physical activity, social interaction, emotional development, and essential life skills. It's a holistic approach that caters to the complete growth of a child, something that's often overlooked in traditional educational settings.
With its emphasis on instilling a love for sports and physical activity from a young age, RSGK has the potential to address several challenges faced by India's youth today. Rising rates of childhood obesity and a sedentary lifestyle are pressing concerns. RSGK can help combat these issues by making physical activity fun and accessible, right from the preschool years.
Furthermore, the program's structured curriculum and professional guidance ensure that children not only enjoy sports but also learn important life skills like teamwork, discipline, and goal-setting. This combination of physical and mental development is a recipe for success, setting children on a path toward a healthy and fulfilling life.
From a business perspective, RSGK is a promising opportunity for entrepreneurs and preschool owners. The program's proven success in Australia and 13 + other countries demonstrates its market potential. The demand for quality early childhood education that goes beyond academics is on the rise in India, and RSGK fits perfectly into this niche.
In conclusion, John Buchanan's Ready Steady Go Kids program is more than just a business opportunity; it's a movement to empower India's youth through sports and holistic development. With its innovative approach and ambitious expansion plans, RSGK has the potential to positively impact the lives of countless children and create a thriving business ecosystem in India's early childhood education sector.
