Whip Cracking Workshops

I can teach you how to crack a whip. I can teach your sister how to crack a whip. I can teach your teacher how to crack a whip. I think you get the point? It's a totally cool thing to do and not many people get the opportunity to do this. Whips were the first man-made object to break the sound barrier. Yes - the crack you hear is actually a sonic boom.

Putting the obvious aside for one moment - you may not have realised how much fun and empowering whip cracking actually is. I have some amazing photos and testimonials from people who have gone from severely lacking confidence in their abilities to Indiana Jones in minutes. No kidding. Children love them too. Works great as family fun at a festival/fair workshop or as private lessons.

Danger Side Show

The Captain requires you to let her shout at you and your friends at parties. This show is borne of interactive and anarchic street performance and as such is designed to keep you on your toes and engaged throughout. Involving the use of various dangerous props but still managing to remain family friendly (unless it's after your 7-year-olds bedtime), this show unforgettably happens at all manner of events. Street Food Markets, Summer Festivals, Weddings, Fairs, Fetes and Private Gatherings.
