Ikigai Kids in Education, Youth Sports, Youth Groups, & Afterschool Enrichment
To every educator, coach, program director, mentor, and leader who gives their time and heart to kids — thank you.
I know firsthand it’s not easy. To truly make an impact, many of you even reach into your own pockets to cover resources. I’ve done it myself for years at Molalla Striking Arts and will likely continue to. Even if you don’t, at Ikigai Kids, we believe wholeheartedly in the value of community and in supporting the work you do.
But here’s something important: the influence you carry is powerful. Kids watch you. They learn not just from your words, but from the example you set. Be the person you want them to become, show them, and teach them. That’s a responsibility and an opportunity. Ikigai Kids is here to help you meet that responsibility head-on.
Options for Educators & Leaders
Option 1 — Free Sample
Download a free sample pack of Leo the LifeSkill Lion Learns Focus. No strings attached. Share it with your team, your class, or your group. If just one child has one more conversation about the value of focus, that opens a door — and sometimes that’s all it takes.
Option 2 — Bulk Discounts
If you’re coaching a team, running a youth group, or leading a program, you can access a 30% discount on bulk license purchases. Please coordinate the bulk purchase with us directly through email here.
And if your organization can’t cover the cost and you’d have to pay out of pocket — email me first. It’s my honor to help, and the least I can do to thank you for giving your time to kids.
Option 2A — Nonprofits, Schools, & PTAs
If you’re part of a nonprofit organization, school, PTA, or club (and sometimes even if you’re not, case by case), we’ll take it further: 50% off retail price. Please coordinate NonProfit/School/PTA bulk purchase with us directly through email here.
Want to go one step more? Turn your discount into a fundraiser. Raise money for your club, school, or district while providing kids with a fun, meaningful child development tool that helps them internalize skills until they become instinct.

Option 3 — Full Programs & Licensing
The workbooks are powerful, but they’re just the beginning. They’re supplemental tools for our plug-and-play LifeSkills Program.
You can purchase the group microlessons that align with the workbooks.
Want the Group Focus microlessons that line up with Leo learning Focus? There are nine more where that came from. Purchase individually, or get the entire set at a bundled rate.
Looking for more? Join our community for full access to the complete library — Life Skills only, or entire age appropriate programs like Inspire! (Ages 4-6), Encourage! (Ages 7-9), and Thrive! (Ages 10-13).
And for those who want the complete system:
The Ikigai Child Development System — our proprietary program blending the 9 Pillars of Ikigai with SEL objectives, community building, and martial arts. It’s designed to open the door for kids to discover who they truly are, so they can live on purpose.
Let’s have a conversation about how Ikigai Kids can best serve your organization. Email for schedule information for a free consultation here.
Coming Soon: Ikigai Afterschool Enrichment
We are currently enrolling and actively developing the Ikigai Afterschool Enrichment Program — a plug-and-play model created to disrupt the afterschool industry.
Why? Because too often afterschool care means crowding kids into a room, handing them a screen, and calling it a day — while charging families $850 a month and paying staff $17 an hour to manage 8–10 kids at a time. That math doesn’t add up for kids or parents.
Maybe I’m ambitious. Maybe it’s early. But I believe we can do better — and that kids deserve better. This isn’t about judgment; I know working parents are doing their best. It’s about raising the standard.
We’ll post updates on this page as the program develops so you can follow along with us, starting right here in a small town in Oregon with a big idea.
