CORPORATE

Barbara-Anne Puren, founder of healing arts centre began her work as a creative arts practitioner and facilitator in 1993. Over the years, she has developed her own unique brand of combining all of the arts modalities to create unique and dynamic team building events. 
During these events, Barbara-Anne focuses on the development of key personal and social skills such as enhanced verbal, visual and physical memory skills as well as improved aural perception linked to language development.
She has a host of corporate clients who after completing these creative team building activities, have a better understanding of each other's strengths, weaknesses, and interests.  This new understanding helps the participants to work even better together, which is vital to any company.
Creativity and Art has proven invaluable for diverse team situations including team building, brainstorming, stress management, to name but a few.
Here through the creative process much is achieved through active participation of team members. Using a blend of the arts modalities from music to movement as well as visual arts, engaging with the creative process, art materials are combined with brainstorming, interactive team work and communication to target your specific goals, strategies, and objectives.
Words are brilliant but can be limiting in terms of self-expression and communication, our workshops and team building exercises present a fun, uniquely developed, practical, creative, and experiential way of expressing. This vastly benefits both the individual and the team in using their imagination - which stretches the mind far beyond the verbal capacity.

By pursuing creative endeavours we:
Reduce stress levels
Improve problem-solving
Enhance team communication as well as interaction and building of relationships
Increase motivation and respect amongst team members
Create a safe space and freedom to test out new and innovative ideas
Get to know your team in ways that are inconceivable through verbal interaction
Heighten social intelligence of the group
Explore the integration of left and right brain activities
Raise the empathy quotient of the team
Build confidence and self-validation
Focus on spontaneity, relaxation and most of all fun

Healing arts centre workshops and teambuilding events encourage the process of discovering and developing the creative potential and integration of these ideas in a fun and practical way for enhanced team effectiveness.
Creativity allows for active participation for all team members. Absolutely NO art experience is necessary, as our events focus on the interactive process of creativity in teams rather than the outcome of a ‘perfect’ work of art!
Various products are available to suite your specific requirements and can be structured to fit into your schedule.
