Our portfolio

The COVID-19 lockdown had a devastating impact on the arts, and particularly for freelancers.

Volunteering with us on a mass batiking session? Making headdresses or lanterns at a community workshop? Dancing en masse at one of our performances?

Percussionists attending Global Grooves courses may come across Jordan Ferguson, an enthusiastic leader, teacher and band director who, like many of our friends and family, joined our ranks after discovering the Future Leaders programme.

If you’ve ever watched one of our performances and been stupefied by our dance, it’s a good chance it’s been performed or choreographed by Louise Gibbons.

Keiran Pearson is a London-based percussionist and music teacher who is also frequently gigging and writing music.

Have a booking with us? If so, you’ve probably spoken to our producer, Kate Rothery.

When our Artistic Director, Holly Prest, met a twelve-year-old Farheen Saloojee, both knew that this would be the start of an ongoing, musical relationship.

Freya Bennett-Nielsen is a valued member of the Global Grooves Office, working and organising the wonderful programmes held by Global Grooves.

This winter-time celebration brings together everyone from our beautiful, unique community.
