How is the Shichida Programme structured?

​​

We welcome children from 6 months to 7 years of age, during the most important years of brain development. Our Brain Stimulation Course is carefully structured into three progressive levels, allowing each child to build a strong foundation before advancing to more challenging training. Rather than progressing simply by age, children are placed according to their developmental stage and training progress, ensuring every child receives the most suitable level of stimulation. Each lesson is thoughtfully designed to strengthen memory, concentration, imagination, language, creativity, intuition, and learning ability, while nurturing confidence, independence, and a love for learning. Home practice is an essential part of the programme. Through just a short amount of weekly guided interaction, parents reinforce what is taught in class, creating meaningful opportunities for both brain development and parent-child bonding.

​

What does the Shichida Programme feature?

• One consistent parent accompanies children below 5 years of age.

• Weekly 75-minute lessons comprising 55 minutes of training activities and 15 minutes of parent consultation.

• Small classes of 4 to 6 children, allowing instructors to closely monitor each child's progress.

• Each term consists of 12 weekly lessons, followed by a one-week break before the next term.

• Regular developmental reviews ensure your child continues progressing at the right pace.

Do you offer trial lessons?

We do not offer trial lessons because the benefits of whole-brain development cannot be fully experienced in a single session. Unlike activity-based enrichment classes, the Shichida Method develops abilities progressively through carefully structured lessons, consistent home practice, and close collaboration between parents and instructors. Many of the most meaningful changes, such as improved concentration, confidence, emotional stability, memory, and learning habits, develop over time. To help parents make an informed decision, we invite all prospective families to attend our complimentary Preview Session, where our Principal explains the philosophy behind the programme, how it works, and what results parents can realistically expect.

​

Is my child too young for this Programme?

Not at all! Research has consistently shown that the earliest years of life are the most important period for brain development. During this critical window, children's brains form connections at an incredible rate, making them especially receptive to meaningful stimulation. Beginning from 6 months of age allows us to nurture your child's natural learning abilities during this precious period, laying a strong foundation for future learning and character development.

​

Is one-lesson-a-week enough for my child?

The weekly lesson provides the guidance and structure, while home practice creates lasting results. Parents spend less than 20 minutes each day carrying out enjoyable activities at home. These simple exercises reinforce what has been learnt in class and become part of your child's daily routine. To support parents, every family receives parent training and ongoing guidance from our instructors, so you will always know how to maximise your child's learning at home. The greatest progress we have witnessed came from the partnership between our instructors and parents.

​

Can older children still benefit from this Programme?

Absolutely! While younger children experience the greatest brain plasticity, older children continue to benefit significantly from whole-brain training. Many of our older students have developed stronger concentration, improved memory, greater confidence, enhanced creativity, and better academic performance through the programme. It is never too late to strengthen your child's learning abilities and unlock their potential. Several of our Shichida children from our testimonials are great examples of success stories!

​

Do we need to purchase additional materials?

No! Every enrolled child receives the support materials and worksheets required for each term at no additional charge.

Families who wish to extend learning at home may choose from our range of recommended educational materials, to loan from our extensive library or for purchase, but these are entirely optional. Our Principal can recommend suitable materials based on your child's individual developmental needs.

​

Can children with special needs join this Programme?

Yes! Every child possesses unique strengths and untapped potential. Our programme focuses on recognising and nurturing those strengths through positive encouragement and appropriate brain stimulation. Many children with different learning profiles have benefited from the Shichida Method by developing greater confidence, improved focus, stronger communication, and increased independence. We encourage parents to speak with our Principal so we can better understand your child's needs and recommend the most suitable learning pathway.

​

Will my child still need art, music, or sports classes?

Our Shichida Institute research has shown that Brain Stimulation Training is the first and most important development in a child. Our programme complements, not replaces, other enrichment activities. Our primary goal is to build the foundation that supports success across all areas of learning by strengthening the brain's ability to absorb, process, and apply information. As children become more confident, focused, and emotionally resilient, they are often better equipped to enjoy and excel in other interests, whether in music, art, sports, languages, or academics.

​

How do I enrol?

Simply submit an enquiry through our website. You will receive additional information together with an invitation to attend our complimentary Preview Session, where our Principal shares the philosophy behind The Shichida Method, explains how the programme works, and answers any questions you may have. Following the Preview Session, you may proceed with your enrolment application. Once approved by our Principal, we will advise you on the next available class. Lessons are available on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. As class sizes are intentionally kept small and vacancies are filled on a first-confirmed basis, we encourage early confirmation to secure your preferred schedule.
