Rhianna, Oxford Dance Camp

” Dear Justine, I just wanted to say a huge thank you (again) to you and the group for the energy, enthusiasm and the love for performing in front of the Chesham Crowd. You were all quite magnificent and they all loved you. ““

Parveiz, Chesham Coronation Celebration

” I’ve been drumming with Justine in Wycombe for eight years and it’s now a very fundamental part of my life. When I joined I was a complete novice but felt part of the group straightaway by learning a simple rhythm in the first session. Drumming is a very joyful and creative means of expression that is also great for stress reduction – definitely a mood enhancer!  As a drummer you’re also part of a community made up of all kinds of people which I feel is very positive. “

” Just had to write and say a HUGE BIG THANK YOU for creating magic at TVAP last Friday at the adults Christmas event. I’ve been involved with the Playground for over 20 years taking children and a young adult there and also as a volunteer. Without doubt the drumming proved a very special hour and I’ve no doubt at all that you’ll be back. WELL DONE Justine – you radiate sunshine and enthusiasm and Thank You also to your fellow drummers. “

Linda Niven, TVAP

” I would like to thank you for a fantastic evening of drumming, the Scouts had a great time. It can be very difficult to hold the attention of younger people for 2 hours but you managed this without a problem. The mixture of playing and talking about the culture and history worked really well and the coming together of everything they had learnt through the night was a tremendous sound. Thank you again for taking time to come and visit it us. “

Scout Leader,  1st Radnage Scouts

” I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful workshop this morning.  It was better than I ever envisaged. There was such a happy vibe in the room and even the sceptics in the team were won over. You have a gift of including everyone. I have had so much positive feedback from the team today and at Trust Head Office this afternoon lots of people had heard about how good it was. I would certainly recommend you. “

Team Manager, Hertfordshire Partnership University FT

” All staff really enjoyed a staff training session in which we practised a number of rhythms which we then performed for the whole school in an assembly – much to their delight! The teachers felt truly energised by the training and it was a rare treat for us to participate in some adult learning that had such an immediate and joyful outcome. The children in Upper Key Stage 2 also enjoyed workshops which they are still talking about. “

Jo McMorrin, Headteacher

” Justine you were amazing! The children had a great time learning about the drums, where they were made and how they were made. You arrived early to get set up and the equipment you had was great, each child had a drum each. You communicated well with the children ensuring they understood your instructions and did so in a fun way! Thank you for coming to our Holiday club & we look forward to seeing you again in the future. “

Haleema Ahmed, University of Hertfordshire

” Justine’s classes have had me hooked for many years! She creates a fun energy and explains things in a way that allows you to fully understand the layers of rhythm. I’d highly recommend her workshops because she’s so experienced with keeping students of all skill levels engaged! “

” The African drumming work shop was superb. All the girls took part and nobody had time to get bored. Within minutes everyone was able to keep a strong beat going and it was fantastic to hear the girls, whose ages ranged from 5 to 14, playing “tunes” with Justine and Barry. The adults were spellbound and people in the hall above us, instead of complaining
about the loud, strong beat, asked for details so they too could enjoy a session of drumming in the future.  Everything went smoothly and to perfection from when Justine and Barry first arrived until they departed. “

Brown Owl, Woodford Rainbows, Brownies and Guides

” Sincerest thanks for a really engaging and enjoyable workshop! Your session was pitched perfectly for our pupils, who clearly loved every minute. You have given us a fantastic start to our new topic! Many thanks. “
