MUSICIANS of ALL AGES!
MUSIC...is a great art form with which to engage participants in individual and group work, therapeutically. Within the BA(Hons) Creative Therapies programme MUSIC has a high profile and students have been learning how to involve group participants in activities that raise their self esteem and benefit their personal wellbeing. From the rhythm of a beat to the colours of sound, MUSIC holds the capacity to reach out beyond race, creed, gender, age, culture, ability & disability and make a difference to people's lives - how they feel about themselves. If you're a musician who is trying to figure out the 'next step' in your career or 'life' path, why not join us & let's make a difference to the wellbeing of others - let them share in your passion for music...!

Creative Therapies Dance/Movement Tutor Batel Magen at the Brewery Theatre, Bristol

                       WED 7th - SAT 10th of JULY


About Neshima Dance Company:Artistic director Batel Magen leads new Bristol based dance company Neshima Dance Company in an exciting new project ‘Dancing in Tongues’, which includes two new pieces ‘See what you say’ and ‘Jigsaw’. Both pieces include highly physical and sensitive movement repertoire containing theatrical elements and voice. Musical scores for both pieces are originally composed and created by international, national and local artists.

Neshima, meaning ‘breath’ in Hebrew lives up to its name by incorporating and embodying the use and quality of breath in its repertoire. Neshima is a conceptual based company whereby it explores a range of concepts as the main stimulus for movement.


Dancing in Tongues offers the dancers and the audience the opportunity to delve into the physicality and complexity of Language, Non-Verbal Communication and Relationships.

Dancing in Tongues is currently touring in Bristol offering a 3 day education residency in 7 performing arts schools in Bristol and the surrounding area. Each residency will focus on the concept of the project title and conclude with Neshima making a curtain raiser with the participating students which will then be performed alongside the company during the performances at the schools. Each school will have an evening performance open to the public.
