Welcome
The mission of The Noble Path Foundation is to ensure a healthy future for our children by raising healthy children to inhabit our world.
Our Nourish to Flourish and AIM High programs are designed to help young people reach their highest potential by educating them on the importance of what they eat, how they move, and with whom they interact.
We offer fun and engaging social events in a safe and comforting environment; encourage creativity
and leadership skills via workshops and mentorship; and promote a variety of enrichment activities with community partners to broaden interests and cultivate wholesome habits.
Our goal is to provide a total wellness approach to offset the many challenges the youth of our communities face each day. We strive to put them on a path towards a brighter future and better health.
What's New
We’ve got a barn burner of a Battle Royale for TGIF - and it’s a special Bday edition to boot!!
We have 10 new games that will test your skills while they keep you smiling! Come join the competition and help us celebrate William and Matias’s birthdays… See you there!! 🥳
We interrupt our news feed to share some thoughts from our fitness team and to remind everyone that physical health and wellness is also a huge part of what we advocate for here at TNPF.
Offering free small group training classes for teens, sharing education on the importance of what they put on the ends of their forks and into their bodies, and always providing fresh fruits, veggies and nourishing snacks is how our Nourish to Flourish programs work towards raising healthy kids to insure a healthy world!
Our creative buffet of crafts last night had teens doing henna tattoos, embroidery, friendship bracelets, and perler beads - but the best part is always the casual and comforting camaraderie that permeates the room.
It’s amazing what happens when you remove judgement or bias or preconceived misconceptions of who people are, what they should believe our how they should look, behave, or dress. What you’re left with is simply the truth and beauty of each unique individual. The wondrous thing about TNPF is that it’s a space where kindness rules and everyone knows they can just be happy - and that’s enough. 🫶🏽
A BIG bonus of taking our free guitar lessons every Wed from 4:30-5:30 is that you’ll also get opportunities to watch your teachers perform!
You can catch Ryan @retphillips at The Station every Tuesday night playing bass with his band, Cosmic Blues. Marco @marco.caldarone will be performing March 13th with his 8-piece band complete with horn section, Jaguar Milk. We hope you’ll join us - for guitar lessons and some live music!

We will NOT be doing one of the following games this Friday for a special Birthday Edition of Battle Royale. Can you guess which one? 🤣🤣🤣
Giant thanks to @officialdonjuncal and the crew at @obeyclothing @darkseas and @losermachine for letting us crash their work day! The teens from AIM High were treated to a VIP tour of the design, marketing and work spaces, as well as the printing presses and warehouse. It’s a rare behind the scenes look that most people never get to see and we’re super stoked the gang enjoyed it!

If you are (or have) an 18-25 yr old who is currently searching for a career path, you might want to check out Cindi’s article in the latest edition of the San Clemente Journal, which hit newsstands on Friday!
Titled “Transitional Age Youth: Preventing a Failure to Launch” (link to article in bio), it describes many of the challenges facing this often overlooked demographic of young adults as they search for both financial and emotional independence from their parents.
Geared for the 18-25+ crowd, AIM HIGH+PLUS will also be a 7-week series (like our regular AIM High for 13-17 yr olds), but with more mature, adult conversations on the issues that are of specific interest to this age group. Topics will include:
* How to Build a Resume/Business Plan
* Investment Strategies for Gen Z
* Nutrition for Mental and Physical Health
* Coping Skills and Managing Stress
* Identifying Healthy vs. Unhealthy Personal Relationships
* Avoiding the Cycle of Substance Abuse.
In addition, each week we will also be featuring round-table discussions with leading experts in a variety of genres to introduce the group to possibilities they might not have even considered. Professionals in music, journalism, movies, screenwriting, engineering, publishing, medicine, nutrition, sports, trade, finance, social work, mental health, entrepreneurship and much more, will be sharing the paths they took to get where they are today.
The series begins Monday, June 2nd and runs through Monday, July 17th. Registration is now open and we will be limiting this inaugural session to 15 participants. You can sign up via the link in bio or call 949.981.4998 for more information. As with every program we offer through The Noble Path Foundation, this ground-breaking course is entirely FREE.
Hope to see you this summer!
