Team Building Drumming Corporate Event

Posted on 6 September 2018 by Social Media Manager

Team Building Drumming

Why is Team Building Drumming Beneficial?

Our team building drumming events are hugely popular for good reason – they have a really positive effect on the workforce. Drumming is an ancient art form that has been enjoyed by communities across every culture for thousands of years. The power of drumming is no secret but why should you consider team building drumming for your next corporate event?

Team Building Drumming, drumming energiser, drumming ice breaker

“It was such a pleasure to work with you all, the experience was fantastic and we have had nothing but widely positive feedback.” Claire Paterson – Retail Support Assistant UK & Ireland -Tiffany & Co.

Remember that your business is a community of people. If that community of people is united, caring, respectful and supportive then they will also be a very happy and productive team. As well as that being appealing because you care about your staff’s wellbeing, it also means they will be more effective at their jobs and earn the company more money.

But you know that because you’re here looking into team building ideas. So why does team building drumming work so well?

It creates a sense of unity and community

During a drumming team building session hierarchy dissolves, age, physicality, language, culture, gender and ability barriers are all removed. Everyone is equal. Here each member listens to each other, respects each other and works together in the common goal of creating rhythm.

Encourages creativity

We encourage people to remove their inhibitions, stop thinking and start feeling. The left and right brain are engaged and this allows creativity to flow. This same brain function is what brings great new, ‘thinking outside of the box’ ideas in the workplace.

Analogies between drumming and the workplace become clear

Participants learn the value of their contribution to the team as well as how important the WHOLE group is to the overall result. It also encourages listening and respect of the rest of the team.

Ready to learn

Drumming is effective at getting people to the ALPHA state when brain cycles slow down and we are most able to learn. Here we are super focused and receptive to new ideas. This makes a team building drumming event an excellent option for an energiser session during a long conference to reinvigorate, focus and engage the jaded minds.

Accessible to all

Even those who think they have no rhythm at all will get involved and experience a successful session. The team building drumming events are created to work for everybody so that everyone succeeds and has a huge amount of fun. No one is singled out or made to feel silly.

These are just a few of the benefits of team building drumming and above all it’s a really high energy, fun session that leaves people smiling and energised. We have several options whether it’s African drumming, junk percussion or the pitched boomwhcakers which take on the extra element of harmony and allow us to create a piece of classical music with the orchestra.

Team Building Through Music

Why is Team Building Through Music So Popular?

Our events that involve team building through music are ever increasingly popular and incredibly effective at doing what they need to do; Giving people an amazingly fun, memorable event whilst driving home key messages and helping people strengthen their bond whilst learning how to work effectively together.

Many companies are looking for new team building ideas or different team building activities to get away from the old clichéd team building ideas that make people groan. That’s why Rock and Roll Experience exists because we know all about the power of music and how it brings people together. This company was started by professional musicians who love bringing their passion into the workplace to help create strong teams through team building

“It was such a pleasure to work with you all, the experience was fantastic and we have had nothing but widely positive feedback.” Claire Paterson – Retail Support Assistant UK & Ireland -Tiffany & Co.

All of our team building through music events are completely adaptable to meet any budget, any time frame, any location, any group size, and suitable for any person.

The teams are guided by professional musicians and expert facilitators to find solutions to challenges and to work together towards the common musical goal.

Check out our team building overview video below which shows you some of the different team building with musical instruments options we offer and remember all our events are for any age group, any physical ability, any skill set and best of all no experience is necessary. In fact we prefer it that way because then everyone is really challenging themselves and being forced to succeed well out their comfort zone.

Beat Box Team Building

Beat Box Team Building

Beat Box Mania is an exciting new event

Timescale: 30 minutes to 1 hour / Group size: 5-2,000+ people

The Beat Box Mania beat box team building event brings the energy of urban hip hop culture to your work place. Here our beat box expert facilitator introduces your delegates to the hip and happening art form of beat boxing whilst displaying the fundamental skills needed.

beat box, team building, conference, energiser, ice breaker, hip hop

Once your group have been taught these skills and, amidst much laughter, got to grips with performing them they are tasked with creating their own rap over the top of their rhythms.

This is hilarious and ridiculous but simultaneously brilliant at getting the teams to work together to create the finished performance. Out of the silliness is borne a determination to pull together and succeed and the only way to do it is support each other and get creative as a team.

This can run as a short ice breaker or energizer session, as well as a longer team building event.

“Just wanted to get in touch to say how brilliant the day was. The activity was really fun even the people who thought they weren’t going to enjoy it did! Happy days! The facilitators were brilliant throughout the afternoon and kept us all in check when we needed to be! The song choice went down really well and everyone really got into it. Overall it was great and as a company had a great time! Thank you so much for helping organise it all.” Rachael Walsh Office Manager Trinity McQueen

We can run this anywhere, get going in seconds and leave the room in seconds. It needs zero equipment except for a microphone and it’s suitable for any groups size and any duration from 10 minutes up to an hour. This makes it perfect for those conference sessions when a fast entrance and exit is required.

Line Dancing Energiser and Ice Breaker

Posted on 5 February 2018 by Social Media Manager

Line Dancing Conference Energiser or Ice Breaker

Try something different this year and make your delegates shout yeeha!

What is this talk of line dancing at a conference?

You might be familiar with our popular Thriller dance event that works as a very effective conference energiser, ice breaker or team building session. But although that is one of our most popular line dancing, country, conference, ice breaker, energiser, team building events, getting down like a zombie isn’t appropriate for every occasion.

But fear not, there is more than one way to dance. And that’s why we offer our popular dance event in different genres so we can cater for your crowd.

We use the same winning format that we have used for thousands of people in the Thriller event but we tailor it to different styles. This allows us to break the ice, getting everyone engaged and on-board for some fun outside of their comfort zone. We then start learning the steps and rehearsing them up towards the big performance finale.

We have run our events for a large number of well know brands such as Mars Wrigley, John Lewis, Marks & Spencer, Sainsbury’s, Tiffany and many more. But we also cater for smaller groups and often work with much smaller companies.

And that is the beauty of a dance or singing event in that we are using out bodies or voices so we can work with small groups up to several thousand and the event still works just as well.

And because the events are so effective whilst also being very uplifting and fun, we consistently get great feedback such as:

The event was amazing, brilliant and faultless. We could not have had a better experience. Every colleague I’ve seen today has thanked me for organising it and I’m so pleased that we could do this. It was simply the best team building experience this staff team has had in the 9 years I’ve worked here. Brilliant – thank you.” Joe and all the staff at INPUT Pain Management – St Thomas’ Hospital

And,

“It was perfect! The facilitator was brilliant and everyone really enjoyed it as well as taking something away that we will use in the future. We couldn’t have asked for anymore and we will definitely recommend The Rock and Roll experience to others!” Ellie Steel – HR Co-ordinator/PA – Zenergi

So if you want to take advantage of our Thriller, Line Dancing or any other style of dance for your next conference, simply get in touch to tell us what you want. Then leave it to us to create something that your delegates will remember for all the right reasons.

Conference Energiser 2018

If you want great ideas for your Conference Energiser 2018 London corporate event then you're in the right place.

Some of the companies that have experienced our corporate events

Conference Energiser 2018

Make your 2018 conference one to remember….for the right reasons!

We all know that keeping all delegates engaged through long conferences is one of the biggest challenges. Sitting still, listening to people speak all day is a struggle even for the most focused minds and even with the most interesting of topics. We are simply not designed to sit and be talked at for long periods of time and if you don’t break that up people will switch off. And at that moment your message is lost in the air. If you know that already you’re probably desperately searching for conference energiser ideas right now.

This is why we are called upon to deliver conference ice breakers and energisers to keep those energy and engagement levels high throughout the day to make sure your key messages are remembered and don’t send people to sleep.

“I loved how different it was from anything we’ve done before or anything that’s available elsewhere. I liked working with your booking team on building the event and found the whole process really easy. You guys took any pressure away and delivered a fabulous event on the night.” Amy Moore – RSA Group

Our conference energiser 2018 offering is stronger than ever with event options that are unique so you can avoid people feeling like they’ve experienced it before. They also have scope for us to tailor them to your event so we can incorporate any key messages or themes so the whole day feels consistent and ties together seamlessly. And of course they will get your delegates pumped up, energised, buzzing and in a moment where they have achieved something special as a group to create a shared positive experience.

This will make your overall event much more effective and optimise the whole effort.

We can deliver these in a time frame to suit you whether it’s a speedy 30 minute ice breaker or a two hour team building session. We can come in half way through the day to re-energise the group or deliver the session at the end to top it all off on a high and leave people buzzing and talking to each other about their shared experience.

These events have been enjoyed by big names such as:

Tiffany & Co.
KFC
Sainsbury’s
Boots
Asda
Ikea
RSA Group
Pfizer
Shell
Dairy Crest
GE Aviation
And many more…..

Our popular events for your conference energiser 2018 are:

The Rock and Roll Choir Experience

“It wasn’t just creating a choir, the energy and the way in which you engaged with the crowd was brilliant. Even on the toughest of days, you all managed to get most of them involved! I absolutely loved it every day! I only wish we had more than 45 mins!!” Rebecca Nicholson – Retail Support Manager UK & Ireland -Tiffany & Co.

Our vocal coaches teach your delegates the harmonies for a famous rock song. We have scope to tailor the lyrics to your event and we have the pick of hundreds of songs so we can choose something relevant to your company or corporate message. Even the most reluctant singers get stuck in and enjoy the uplifting feeling when our expert facilitators have warmed them into it.

The Thriller Dance Experience

“I don’t want to lose the moment of praise so before I sign off for the weekend I wanted to say thank you. You took a last minute request in your stride and couldn’t have been more helpful. The event was a huge success and the team loved it and that was largely down to the choreographer and her lovely, bubbly personality – she is an asset to you and it wouldn’t have been the same without her. The team were a bit anxious to find out what they were doing but everyone embraced it and was surprised at how much they enjoy it. Overall a huge success and a great night had by all – thank you.” Hannah Eborall – Executive Assistant – LifeSearch

Our choreographers teach the moves to the iconic Michael Jackson dance routine. We have the option to include a zombie make over or just keep you looking like humans and enjoy the energy of the dance. Once again any reservations about the event soon dissolve and even the people with two left feet are surprised at how much they get into this and have a great time.

The Boomwhacker Experience

“The event was amazing, brilliant and faultless. We could not have had a better experience. Every colleague I’ve seen today has thanked me for organising it and I’m so pleased that we could do this. It was simply the best team building experience this staff team has had in the 9 years I’ve worked here. Brilliant – thank you.” Joe and all the staff at INPUT Pain Management – St Thomas’ Hospital

Using pitched percussion tubes, the boomwhacker experience shows the power of working together as we move through a fun rhythmic session which ends up as an orchestra performing a piece by Mozart. Nothing demonstrates how the sum is greater than the parts than working together to create a classical orchestra from a modest plastic tube.
