Briefing:

• The client has two options in this combination activity which lasts 90 minutes.

   Option 1:             
  The whole team will do 45-minutes of Interactive Drumming and then another 45 minutes of Interactive Belly Dancing.

  Option 2:
  We will divide your group of delegates into two equal separate groups, a drum ensemble and a belly dance troupe.

  We will provide a drum and various percussion instruments for the drummers. 

  Each dancer is provided with Eastern hip scarf.

  The drummers will learn an Eastern drum rhythm, while the dancers learn an authentic choreographed belly dance sequence.

  For the first hour the delegates will learn their specific rhythms/dance routines, and for the last ½ hour, our head facilitator will bring the teams together to perform their own industrial theatre.   

  The drummers will perform their rhythm for the dancers to dance to.

   The drummers will supply the rhythm and the dancers will perform to the beat of their colleagues.
  Individuals will also have an opportunity to perform solo.

  This will end on a high note, with the company performing as a team, with enthusiasm and synergy, culminating into an evening of drum and dance - an experience never to be forgotten!

“Everyone is energized, motivated and focused”

Requirements :

• A level area to form a drumming circle.
  A leveled space for the dancers to learn their routine (Separate from the drumming circle and far enough so that the dancers can hear the facilitators).
• An approximate indication of male/female split figures – hip scarves for the ladies and some Eastern Dance props for the men.
• Take weather into consideration. Arrange a plan B with the venue incase of sudden weather changes.
• If at night (outside), make sure the lighting of the venue is good.  Great Idea – Arrange a big bonfire to the Drumming around at night.
