The Founder

TARKA was founded in 2016 by Rufus Gordon-Dean, after leaving the Household Cavalry. The creation of TARKA stems from Rufus' love of exercise, which he believes is the key to happiness, a positive mental state, your physical well-being and your outlook on life. He wanted to imbue this into young children, who are increasingly sedentary and living their lives in front of screens.

RUFUS GORDON-DEAN

From studying the approach of Scandinavian countries in how they educate their young and their pioneering leadership in early years education, Rufus created TARKA.
