It was nothing like they were expecting – it was better!!

Brief: Team building, 25 June, Approx 60 people - That initial enquiry was rather sparse so after one more email back and forth we jumped on the phone.

Feedback: Firstly a huge THANK YOU again from all of us! I can’t say how much it has helped that it was easy doing the early stages planning with you and chatting through what we were after.

We had amazing feedback from our guests on the drumming. Some were understandably nervous when they saw the words ‘teambuilding activity’, but said it was nothing like they were expecting – it was better!! One of the Grad Sponsors said it was the best activity he’d ever done hands down and he has been to a LOT of offsite type events with teambuilding stuff.

It was enjoyable and easy to pick up, a great leveller for everyone in the room and hopefully nobody felt self-conscious. Even those few people who joined us late could jump straight in by watching what others were doing, fantastic!

I personally couldn’t stop smiling, my face hurt afterwards! I spoke to some people I’d not met before when we split off into our groups for the finale and had a great laugh with the people I did know sitting near me.

The instruction from you all and the activity hosting from you Rich was friendly, upbeat and you put everyone at ease straight away. The room was laid out well so everyone could see and hear.

I think I speak for all of us when I say we’d absolutely keep you in mind for our future events, such a pleasure having you join us and great fun on the night.

Liverpool - End on a High!

Brief: “We are organsing a conference for our client, 110 people conferencing in Liverpool and need a spectacle to end the day on…” Katie. E

Result: “I had my de-brief with the client and they were super happy with everything“

Notes: After a couple of emails, a creative call, we created the plan! During the last few seconds of the conference we began drumming to “interrupt“ the CEO (this was pre-planned). The curtains were they pulled back and our team drummed to open the interactive drumming team building experience! Four of us swiftly handed out the instruments while our lead facilitator began the interactive part. Total duration - one hour. Result - high energy drumming spectacle with all 110 of the company drumming their hearts out!

We also did some background drumming post-event while everyone had a drink and an evening meal - great fun and meaningful!

London Bridge - 4 Part Series

Brief: I’m looking for a series of events to put the entire company through, connecting them all again, lifting spirits, after these few years we’ve all been through.

Result: “Just a quick email to say thank for a great team building activity, everyone really enjoyed it – including those who were convinced they wouldn’t!“ Sophie. J

We delivered: Four drumming team building events for around 25% of the company at a time - each receiving a similar team experience. The client needed to keep around 75% of the team onsite working while 25% experienced our drumming team building in London.

We initially helped try to source the venue offering some ideas and past venues we have successfully facilitated in. In the end the client found a beautiful venue right by London Bridge where each event was delivered.

Drumming Team Building, London

Dragons Den Drumming Team Building

Drumming Team Building with the Dragons was quite the adventure…. around a decade ago now, and still significantly brilliant day to remember!

As always, the Youtube comments are priceless, here are a couple of our favourites:

“Duncan is giving me 'A drummer stole my gf in high school and i still hate him' vibes”

“So this is what Gareth Bale was doing when Zidane wouldn't play him”

“It was almost like they were preparing to sacrifice Duncan to some god.”

Duncan was a bit of a grumpy boots, Deborah highly engaging and a delight to chat with. James took a minute to warm, Theo in hindsight actually seemed a bit taken aback and Peter led the way!

It’s a good couple of years ago now and obviously the business has evolved greatly…. And, yes, we are still drumming strong!
