At Rocksport Residential Programs, experiences are designed in accordance with ayurvedic doshas to enhance self-discipline and promote an active lifestyle. The day is divided into 5 phases that aligns students with their natural body clock and helps them master the art of being their most productive selves.
6:00 – 9:00 AM
This is the time of the day when rigorous exercise, breathing and meditation are most beneficial. Staying active and eating healthy keeps students energised throughout the day
Yoga
A 30 minute yoga session every morning prepares students mentally and physically to overcome challenges through the day.
Morning Exercise
An hour of exercise which includes stretching, jogging, push-ups, sit ups etc. acts as a perfect warm up for the tough physical activities that await.
Woody Buddy
There are interesting things to learn about trees, its leaves, fruits and flowers. At camp, students get to explore the flora-fauna in the jungle and gather collectibles in a nature journal.
Sunrise Trek
Watching the sun rise is an experience in itself. Students trek for a few meters up the hill to witness the first rays of the sun.
Confidence Courses
Students test their own limits by taking on obstacles such as Commando net, Tarzan swing, Balance beam, Mowgli walk and Hop scotch.
9:00 – 2:00 PM
The best time of the day to get things done and complete the most difficult tasks. The hardest challenges and the most important tasks can be easily completed during this phase.
Mountain Biking
Students ride an all-terrain bike (ATB) on off–road conditions. This activity teaches them the skill of endurance, balance and control.
Caving
Students explore natural underground passages and secret chambers formed by dissolved limestone rocks. It’s like seeing their geography textbooks come alive.
Raft Building
Students soak in some high-paced action as they partner up and build a raft. They paddle firmly to row past the finish line and emerge as champions!
Body Surfing
Students surf through gushing water streams and let loose to enjoy the chills as they bounce their way from one place to another.
2:00 – 5:00 PM
This time of the day is most suited to do creative thinking, problem solving or other activities that require brain power. Doing mental activities can reap wonderful rewards at these hours.
Face Paint
A clown, a ghost or a fearsome lord of the sea! Students get a chance to paint each other’s face with organic colours and don a new avatar for the day.
Samba
Students are encouraged to create music out of waste. They pick up whatever is lying around them and produce melodies.
Survival Skills
Students explore the jungle and are given the feel of raw living as they learn about survival skills. They are given the tips and tricks of making shelters, finding water underground, etc.
Lashing
From building emergency stretchers to playful catapults, it’s all about creating masterpieces from ropes and sticks.
Knot Making
From the figure of eight to the clove hitch, students learn about various adventure knots used in mountaineering.
Village Visit
Students visit the nearby village to experience rural life from close quarters. They interact with villagers, observe their lifestyle and come back with a fresh perspective to life.
5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
The most ideal thing before the day ends is to sit back and reflect. Sitting in solace, introspecting or writing a journal allows learning and helps prepares for another productive day.
Journal Writing
Students are encouraged to pen down their thoughts. It enhances their skill of expression.
Silent Hour
It’s an hour when students are encouraged to remain silent and reflect on themselves. It helps them emerge as more calm and focused human beings.

7:00 PM – 10:00 PM
These last few hours of the day should be spent doing calming activities with friends & family. Activities such as singing and sharing stories promoted bonding amongst peers, releases stress and prepares for a restorative night.
