Beatboxing Workshop

Tuesday 20 August 9am-1pm, Bradford on Avon Youth & Community Centre

Join Jack Salt for a morning exploring the mysterious craft of beatboxing!

Beatboxing is often assumed to be a skill that you either have or you don’t have. The truth is we are born with everything we need to explore it… a mouth, vocal cords and some imagination. 

This workshop will demonstrate how anyone can do it and how satisfying and liberating it is to communicate in a world beyond words. 

Participants will be introduced to beatbox sounds, rhythms and breathing in an accessible, playful way and are then encouraged to experiment, making up their own beats. 

Jack is a motivational teacher with many years experience whose mission is to inspire people to develop a new confidence-boosting skill which will help them connect more with others.

  • For ages 7-13
  • 8.45am drop-off available – please select at check out
  • Please bring a nut-free snack and drink.

A limited number of fully funded places are available for children eligible for benefit related free school meals.
