Workshops

Holly’s workshops are designed to be of benefit to both professional performers seeking performance skills training and the brave and curious seeking self-development. Through skillful holding and carefully paced progressions of games and exercises, Holly creates the ideal conditions that allow creativity, play, insight, wonder and discovery to thrive.

Holly has been devising and delivering workshops for adults since 2007. She draws upon her huge history of training and experience in many areas, including: improvisation, clowning, fooling, dance, physical theatre, voice work, creative writing, dramaturgy, dramatherapy, mindfulness, playwork, group process, nonviolent communication and laughter yoga to deliver bespoke, bountiful group experiences.

Holly’s workshops range from 2-hour play sessions to 10 day residencies.

Upcoming Workshops and Events

After 16 years of running my own courses, I'm taking a much needed break and moving to Devon to live and volunteer in a meditation retreat centre for 9-12 months from the end of June 2022. If you'd like to know more about this decision, click here.

I'd like to thank everyone who attended my workshops and supported the development of my work over the years. I was 27 when I started offering spaces for adults to play, explore, experiment and witness each other's glorious humanity. I'm 43 now! I can't quite believe how much time has passed, but here I am; slightly dumpier with a lot more grey hair and with permanently etched laughter lines.

Thank you to the hundreds of participants who have allowed me to guide you through awesome, continuously surprising, deeply joyful, life-affirming processes. Your presence, generosity, courage and vulnerability have shaped me into who I am and I'm forever grateful to you for putting your trust in me and my process.

If you'd like to follow my adventures into meditation retreat land, keep your eyes on my blog or you can sign up to the newsletter at the bottom of this page.

Big love,

Holly x
