3 monthly weekend workshops September 19th, October 17th, November 14th 2026 to be booked individually.
Step onto the wire and discover the art of funambulism — tightwire walking with a balancing pole. This unique workshop combines physical skill with mindfulness, helping you build focus, confidence and resilience as you learn to trust your balance and yourself.
You’ll learn the fundamentals of posture, balance and controlled movement, with the opportunity to progress to higher wires at your own pace. Challenging, rewarding and deeply empowering.
