How it works

What to expect from your session

Most sessions run 45–90 minutes. We take care of the preparation and guide your team through an engaging mix of rhythm, interaction and shared music making.

Before the session

We confirm your group size, timing and venue, and discuss what you want the session to achieve. If your event has a theme, company values or a particular message, we can weave these into the experience.

On the day

We arrive well in advance to prepare the space for your group. A carefully planned setup helps the session run smoothly and your team get the most from the experience.

During the session

Our facilitators guide your team through a variety of rhythms and activities, using call and response, movement and plenty of humour. Throughout the session, people listen, respond and make music together, with changes of pace that keep the group engaged and the energy moving.

I loved that you didn't have to be musical. You could just join in and it worked.
