Who is Bond? What are we?
Why does this matter?

Our whole child approach to mental health connects bodies and minds through research-based techniques and interactive experiences.

Who

Bond is a small business with big goals. As mental illness and obesity have both continued to escalate over time, we came together to answer the question: How can we make a meaningful impact on as many kids’ health as possible? The answer is by preventing rather than treating mental and physical illnesses. Bond teaches children how to take care of their minds and bodies.

What

Bond is a subscription based online program intended to be used throughout the week to encourage healthy habits for children’s bodies and minds. Families have a variety of video options, lengths and content enabling them to choose what best fits their needs and schedule on any given day. We recommend families engage with the habit
building videos daily.

When

Bond can be used anytime a device is available. We recommend you substitute some screen time for activity and mindfulness based Bond time. Anytime kids are stressed, overly anxious or having a hard time regulating their emotions we suggest trying a mindfulness video. When kids need to get off the coach and get some exercise we recommend our cardio, strengths, stretch and dance videos!

Where

Bond is completed in the classroom nexts to desks facing the projector, TV or computer; wherever the video is playing from. We encourage teachers to join their students in the process to build the classroom community and guide the students when/if necessary.

Why

Every person on our team has personally experienced, or been close to someone who has suffered with mental illness. The growing rates of mental illness and deaths by suicide are startling. As a community, we must take action. We created our longitudinal curriculum to amplify mental health, happiness, and physical and emotional resilience. Our goal is to prevent rather than treat mental illness — a far more effective approach.

How

The classroom teacher will receive a username and password. Each day they will log onto bondtogether.org and access their daily video. The students will stand next to their desks and follow along with the video through the cardio, stretch, dance and mindfulness training sections.
