In conversation with Ms Shiny Surendran , one of Chennai’s most well known nutritionists, we talk about the nutritional requirements of children between the ages of 5 to 13- through the period of play to introduction to more structured physical activity/sport and then to performance in sports.
This conversation is useful for parents keen to understand the energy demands of their growing child, and how to meet it adequately in a world descending into worse eating and lifestyle habits. We will also talk about the psychology of eating and related disorders and discuss solutions for it.
Ms. Shiny is a lecturer, author, speaker and consultant in sports nutrition. Her studies and experiences have been extensive. Please slide to the second image for your reference.
Joining her is the founder of The Movement Studio, Ms Prerna, with a decade’s experience in academic and dance education for young children. Trained in Bharatanatyam and Kathak for 12 years, Prerna began her training in Ballet, Jazz and Contemporary dances after completing her Indian dance studies. Her focus is primarily on pedagogical techniques, safe dance practice, strength work, and the development and improvement of dance and movement curriculum to make it accessible to all children. Dance for her is about the development of the body (strength, grace and balance), mind (education in dance history and the anatomy, open discussions around art, culture and history) and the spirit (joy of expression, finding community, play). She collaborates with a variety of artists to bring the best for “her children”.
The talk will be hosted on Facebook live and uploaded to YouTube.
