Activities
We offer a selection of activities in the form of Taster Days, Workshops, Awards and Retreats as well as free activities which you can undertake in your own life and in your own space. Awakened Learning Space is an opportunity to connect with other open-minded people who do not conform to the standardised approach to education or mental wellbeing healthcare and are seeking a deeper Understanding and more enriching way to live and be in this world.
Sound’s Creative
35 years of life as a multi-instrumentalist musician has gifted me with a great wealth of not only skill but also wisdom, which I enjoy teaching to others. I offer a range of creative musical activities and tuition for children and adults alike, to develop the sense of hearing, the skills of deep listening and transformational listening, the quality of appreciation as well as a certain depth of interest with which to move through this world. A life in music, or at least a life attuned to sound rather than solely to vision, offers a child so much more breadth of life, so many transferable skills and compassionate connective qualities which, when combined provide a very potent Manual For Life.

Nature’s Being
Playing, working and just being outdoors naturally makes us feel more alive, more awake and present. Being in Nature balances the senses and enriches our experience, making life more enjoyable and wholesome. It offers us a break from our everyday routine, incessant association with thoughts, to-do lists and overpowering emotions brought about by overthinking. Being in Nature awakens and balances the senses and enriches our experience, making life more enjoyable and wholesome as we realise our Oneness. Learn More…
Kindness As One
Offering ways to become aware of our innate loving Being and move through this life with kindness and compassion for each other and the environment of which we are a part, as One. I offer you the opportunity to step outside of your comfort zone and spread love and kindness around the world through various activities and ways of living. Learn More…
Eyes Closed
Encouraging a deeper and more wholesome way of learning by completely removing the visual aspect of perception and so awakening the senses of hearing and feeling, in both the sense of touch or as inner emotion. Activities range from pre school age through to professional music-meditation training. Learn More…
Bilingualism
Learning additional languages makes our minds more open and flexible and arouses a willingness to connect with others. Bilingualism also allows a greater integration with people from other cultures outside the English speaking world. Learn More…
Awakened Parenting & Awakened Home Schooling
An opportunity for parents to progress and deepen the understanding gained from parenting advice in books, videos and from health visitors and take it to a deeper, more aware Understanding. There are no more ‘proven best methods’ or ‘rights or wrongs’ here, and there are no things you should do. There is just an understanding that you as the parent knows best and to understand the deeper spiritual process which your child is moving through as they grow.
As word of Awakened Learning Space spreads, I intend to grow the programme to serve the home schooling community as an obvious and beneficial alternative/addition/complement to mainstream education. Learn More…
