We really appreciate Nicks flexibility in running a drop-in style workshop for us, it fits in great with our day and gives more people a chance to experience the circus workshop. \nWe know from positive feedback that children and parents really enjoyed themselves and we will definately be booking with Shooting Stars again!.

The organisation was excellent as was the equipment brought along for the groups to work with.\nThe range of abilities within the group was wide, from adults who do some teaching of the skills to those who had done nothing previously. The instructor coped with all in a skilled manner.\nthey handled the whole weekend in a very professional manner, skilled themselves, calm, confident and very good instructors whom the children and adults could relate\nIn all a most successful weekend from which our children can build their future work in the drama field.

It is always a worry when you've booked something for the first time because you never know if it's going to be right for your children but Leanne was brilliant. The children and staff both enjoyed her workshop and thought she was very entertaining. She kept the children engaged and gave the staff chances to be as involve as the children.
Leanne has left a lasting expression on the children and skills they can continue learning. We would love to book again.
Thank you.

we hired shooting stars for the members of our special needs group.The instructor was very professional and friendly, the children and adults alike were very excited and everybody participated in the activities.,of which there were a vast range,from soft scarfs to juggle up to a unicycle and stilts. Every body had an excellent fun filled evening with much laughter and many achievements,we would strongly recommend shooting stars to every body and would definitely book again. .

Thank you so much. A great time was had by all - leaders and children alike. We all achieved skills we didnt think we could and the Brownies cant stop talking about it!
Chris was brilliant at giving instructions and then working with individuals and small groups to encourrage more, or to extend to further skills. The huge variety in the 1st hour kept us interested and amazed, and the free hour went all too quickly! The Brownies were also good at helping each other. I would recommend this to everyone.

Thank you very much for your contribution to a great party. What was so nice is that you were discreet and not loud entertainers which is exactly what we wanted as it didnt overexcite the kids just engaged them really nicely. We also really liked the way you interacted with the kids helping them to feel they were doing it for themselves rather than you were the experts and they were just incapable. Sometimes you did it for them but they didnt even notice..
