Past Workshops and Events

Southern African Dance practice held by Miles Ncube offers an exciting and engaging dance workshop that emphasizes the rich cultural heritage of African dance, song, and rhythm. Miles’s sessions are designed not just for physical movement, but as a holistic approach to personal development. It’s not just about learning dance; it’s about transforming lives through movement, music, and community. Join us to experience the joy and empowerment that comes from engaging with this vibrant cultural heritage.

As with folk songs, the spirit of folk games lives in the oral tradition. They are passed on from human to human, morphing and shape-shifting through the generations and across the lands. They are adapted for different groups, settings, times and cultures. In contract to the capitalist impulse to generate passive income from proprietary rights, these games belong to everyone.

In this workshop we’ll explore design principles and practical processes for playing WITH folk games. We’ll make up some new games which may have never been played before…

Not the big-shoes-squirty-flower-kind of clown, think releasing your unique inner clown, that  free, fun, spontaneous and playful part of yourself that copes with life without being concerned about getting it right or being clever. There’ll be play and games galore courtesy of Clowning Facilitator, Laughter Leader and ray of sunshine, Carol Thompson.
