Workshops

Blues Jam Factory is a high impact and low maintenance learning tool which helps companies deliver their business message in any forum – from Corporate Conferences, to Planning and Strategy Sessions, Team and Company Mergers and Off-Site Meetings. A valuable additional string to the bow of Corporate Coaches, Trainers and Events Management Companies.

 

This unique workshop helps delegates with differing levels of skill and experience to work together on an achievable challenge - to learn to play the Blues Harmonica.  The learning strategies and thinking skills they develop will help them to absorb information more rapidly and to produce creative answers to problems.

 

Blues Jam Factory is generally a one hour workshop and includes:

 

  • Ben blows the audience away with a ‘Blast of the Blues’
  • Back to the ‘Grass Roots’ with everyone playing on a blade of grass
  • ‘Communication between Tribes’ -  whispered harmonica conversations
  • Chicago Blues – Mastering Blues techniques
  • Free-style group performances
  • Blues Jam Big Band Finale
 
The post workshop debrief is an additional service to draw out the shared learning experiences and how they can be incorporated into the workplace to achieve company objectives and enhance performance. This is a vital element of the Blues Jam Factory experience – for both participants and for clients. We work closely with several Professional Coaches who can facilitate this, alternatively clients may wish to take responsibility for this themselves.

The most important information you can give to Darrell and Emma in the planning stage is an understanding of what learning strategies and thinking skills you wish to communicate to your team. This enables us to ensure these are reflected in the workshop.

Exact prices are dependent on numbers, location, and requirement - generally from £25 per head.

 
 

Pippa Bassan, a PCC with the International Coach Federation and Certified NLP Coach, used Blues Jam Factory as part of a team building workshop.

It’s a brilliant idea that enables a group of people with differing levels of skill and experience to work together from a level starting point on an achievable challenge.By the time I started my debrief they were all relaxed and open to exploring the learning.  And it’s such a memorable and fun event that I’m sure it will stay with them for a long time.”
