Maverick Fit Kids

Recently I was reading by Devdutt Pattanaik and was blown over by the ease with which he explains the most complex and intriguing concepts. My elation soared as I completed the book and saw the image on the last chapter of the book (see image 1)

Since 2014, I have been researching, creating and advocating the concept of physical literacy in India. Born out of a conversation between Krishnaraj & me to introduce a more holistic physical education approach in schools in August 2013, Maverick Fit Kids has blossomed from being India’s first physical literacy informed curriculum in schools to the National Knowledge Partner of the Government of India’s Sports, Physical Education, Fitness and Leisure Skills Council promoting physical education - Spefl.official

While the concept of was available for reading and research over the Internet, it was embellished by a few interactions I was privileged to have when I travelled abroad over the years. I am indebted to Amit Malik who connected with me in 2020, and through him my connection with the International Physical Literacy Association (IPLA) UK. The IPLA gave an academic orientation to my intuitive understanding and implementation of physical literacy. The expansion on the physical, affective and cognitive domains while being physically active (see image 2) was a result of these interactions with the IPLA team from across the globe.

While the innate connection was always felt by me, the image from “My Gita” explaining the interdependence of the three yogas brought a profound moment of inexplicable clarity and gratitude. No wonder I resonate so much with the concept of physical literacy encompassing action (physical-Karma), emotion (affective-Bhakti) and understanding (cognitive-Gyana).

As expounded, action without emotion or understanding is devoid of involvement (affection) and meaning. Knowledge without emotion is devoid of purpose (exchange is the basis of life as detailed in ‘My Gita’). Yoga means to unite. Physical literacy is a way of life to unite our reverence for our body through valuing, understanding and implementing ways by which we can be active for life.

As we celebrate Maverick's 20th Anniversary, we bow down in gratitude to the Divine for making our lives worthwhile!

Nutrition - Not Diet!
Science has proved that every snowflake is different. Each human being has a unique biochemistry. A 'one-size-fits-all' diet is not really going to be effective.

Your body needs certain macro-nutrients and micro-nutrients that can be given specifically to you only when a nutritionist can assess your personal dietary needs. Ultimately, you are what you eat.

One man's food can be another man's poison. For instance, someone with traces of oesteoporosis may be blindly recommended by well wishers to increase calcium intake. But if originally, your diet has sufficient calcium, may be you don't need to increase calcium but increase the micronutrients to enable better absorption of calcium. By blindly increasing calcium intake you may end up paving the way for kidney stones!

An independent, individualistic dietary recommendations will certainly go a long way to keep you healthy.
