That'll be more sort of social dance skills, giving you the confidence to to dance with anyone on any dance floor. And then he'll also teach a daily drop in class where he'll be exploring different metaphysical energetic principles.
We are delighted to have Andrew, formerly an international Latin and Ballroom dancer, choreographer, licentiate qualified dance teacher and championship adjudicator, Andrew is more publicly known for being a professional partner on the BBC hit show Strictly Come Dancing in 2005.
He has a fundamental belief that all life is a dance and therefore the same universal laws that apply to dance, also apply to life. Andrew skilfully and intuitively weaves the principles of dance with life so as to enable people to understand and find more balance, presence, harmony and joy. We can't wait to see everyone swinging and swaying with joy!

How can you beat the post-holiday come down?
What if holidays weren’t just about escaping a life that we must return to? But instead, one that nourished you and left you ready to make positive changes?

“ It’s about transformation – it's where you don't just step away from your life; you get ready to step back into it renewed." 🌟
Imagine how you would feel if you could leave us not just refreshed, but also inspired to be the best version of yourself.
Are you ready for a holiday that lasts?

Love Yourself, Love Life!
Join Julian Russell from Sat 18 - Fri 31 May to increase the well-being in your life. In the sunny setting of Greece, among a large choice of courses. You can explore how the beauty of the world is all around us, all the time. We do not have to go anywhere else; we just need to look more deeply into the mystery of the moment and the place. We will envision how to have more of this when we get back home.
Week 1 will work with your inner resources, discovering them, developing them, and making the most of them. So that's for things that are going well in your life, you'll be even more empowered and even more in the flow than you have been previously.
Week 2 we'll go deeper into what stops you from having the life that you truly want. You'll apply the resources from the first week to work with your, your inner obstacles, your emotional wounds, or whatever experiences you've had, that need healing in your life.
If you're ready for a change, this is your sign to take the leap. Embrace your magnificence and start creating the life you imagine.

The Improvisation for Creativity course is happening 1st - 8th September 2024 in the beautiful setting of Atsitsa Bay in Greece!
Led by the experienced and talented Liam Brennan, this unique workshop is an exhilarating ride into the world of improv – a space where the unexpected is the norm, and the script doesn't exist.
Improv isn't just for the naturally witty; it's a craft that thrives on collaboration, listening, and the joy of building something out of nothing with your team. It’s about embracing the moment, saying "yes, and..." to the ideas that flow, and finding the fun in every twist and turn.
Overcoming Fears: Moving beyond the fear of needing to be instantaneously witty; improv thrives on teamwork and the exchange of ideas.
Collaboration is Key: The beauty of improv lies in listening, collaborating, and building upon the ideas of scene partners, leading to unexpected humour and connection.
Celebrating Mistakes: Errors are not just accepted but encouraged, acting as the thrilling heart of improvisation.
No experience in acting or comedy? No worries! This course is crafted for anyone looking to infuse their life with a bit of play, improve their communication skills, or simply enjoy a week filled with laughter and learning.
