Samba percussion and dance workshops for schools
An exciting collection of workshops available, tailor made for schools.
Adrian Wiggins and Sallie MacLennan have over 13 years of experience having worked with thousands of children from all ages and abilities.
They provide schools with anything from a half day workshop up to a week long project. The structure of a day can be adapted purely to requirements.
