I am a creative wellbeing facilitator and project co -ordinator,  with a passion for delivering performance arts projects to enhance personal and community wellbeing.

I do this through playful , creative invitations in a safe space , enabling participants from all backgrounds to develop resilience and creative skills, offering  a vehicle to meet new people, and to think about things differently.

Although I enjoy working with artists from many art forms, my specialism is Circus and performance. Circus is becoming known for engaging hard to reach people, giving them tools to develop physical and mental skills. The rewards of circus are plenty. Circus skills can be used to teach life skills, including perseverance, teamwork, trust and positive risk-taking. These life skills apply outside of the circus and taking part in workshops can give a sense of self-worth while boosting confidence. Circus is collaborative, not competitive. It offers core strength, upper and lower body workouts, as well as balance, hand-eye co-ordination and mental acuity workouts. It is social and supportive, fun and engaging. It encourages having a go, and rewards perseverance and tenacity. In addition to the health benefits of circus, it develops creativity, and helps with concentration and focus. Social Circus methods can be used with youth at risk, marginalised groups, those with neurlogical and physical diversities.

I  believe everyone should have an opportunity to flourish and prosper—to thrive together.
