In many of our events, the team activities we provide are selected to fit closely with the relevant conference or meeting message. Often, it is the close connection between an activity and the theme of the event that really inspires our clients to choose us, and the activity. We can spend many email and phone calls [Continue Reading]
Antiques Auction Dinner Entertainment in London
The Marriot County Hall Hotel was the venue for last week’s Antiques Auction evening event, which is located on the shores of London’s South Bank, next to the London Eye. We created our fictitious antique auction house in the beautiful library room. With amazing views of Westminster, Big Ben and the Thames, the room was specifically [Continue Reading]
Bespoke Team Building Events
There is simply no point having the word ‘creative’ in your company name and not putting it into action when a client requires something completely new and bespoke!

Affordable Activities for Big Teams
We’ve had a few weeks of relatively large conferences where we have been asked to deliver activities to groups of 300 or more delegates. With additional Haka and One Voice team singing events going on too, it’s been all go! There is something undeniably impressive when large groups combine their efforts to play, perform and respond [Continue Reading]
Transformational Team Building Using Singing
For years, we steered away from offering team building singing events. I suppose we saw them as a more difficult ‘mountain to climb’ with clients. Because almost every event we deliver has an instant effect and obvious positive reaction, getting participants over the years of embarrassment about the sound of their own voices once seemed [Continue Reading]

At the moment, and for no obvious reason, we are experiencing multiple bookings for the same or [Continue Reading]

A Week of Rhythm-based Team Events
Rarely do we get a whole week, day after day, of our most popular rhythm events, but this is exactly what happened last week. Sunday evening started off at Heathrow airport, on our way to Finland. With two high-stacked trolleys, we heaved and swayed in between other travellers to get to check-in with over 30 drums [Continue Reading]
Client List Brings Back Memories
Almost by accident this week, I looked at our client list on our website. I’m sure it’s the same for many of us when we sometimes overlook the legacy of what we do and all the companies that have used our services over the years. As I glanced at the list, I was instantly flooded with [Continue Reading]
‘Beat the Stig’ Driving Team Building
I know nothing about cars. In fact, I can just about find the oil dipstick! Yet, I can sit engrossed watching the TV programme Top Gear for hours. I’m obviously not alone, judging by the viewing figures and the success of the bestselling books and DVDs connected to the show. The programme’s popularity has led [Continue Reading]
