Tie-Dye Drama Arvostelua 

Ella provided outstanding support for the kids, who absolutely loved each session and eagerly anticipated their weekly time with her. Her kindness and empathy made her an exceptional facilitator, helping the group grow in both confidence and creativity. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Ella is a great facilitator. The children were really engaged with the sessions and got a lot out of the experience. They particularly enjoyed the refugee week workshop!

The most fabulous support for the children - they thoroughly enjoyed every session and looked forward to their time with Ella every week! Ella is such a kind and empathetic facilitator who guided the group in developing confidence and creativity. Cannot recommend enough!!!!

Ella was able to hold the room extremely well. She made excellent relationships with the children she worked with and did so very quickly. She was responsive to their needs and adapted to what each session brought. The content of each session was engaging and child friendly, the children were stimulated and emjoyed the sessions. Ella was reflective and collaborative, she took time after each session to talk with staff about how it had gone and make any changes as necessary. It was a pleasure to work with Ella and the children are still talking about their drama workshops now.

I think TDD was a really fun experience for myself but especially for the CYPs who joined. They had the opportunity to use their imagination and finds creative ways to explore their different ideas. I love that a lot of the sessions, whilst there was a premise already set, the children were able to contribute their ideas & character developments freely too. Ella did a great job at being really personable to the children whilst helping them to see that there is an expectation with their behaviour during the sessions.

Something that could be even better for next time would be the option to use props (maybe for the final showcases or sessions?). Just as a way to excite the children more and give them something to physically use as inspiration for their ideas. It's always fun to play dress up so I think they would love it!

Finally, it was great being in the sessions with Ella and supporting her with the children. It was always a lot of fun and I really saw how many of the children really came out of their shell, confidently stood up in front to perform, and also helped each other to do their best.

All in all, a wonderful experience with TDD and I look forward to seeing her again should that happen in the near future. Thanks Ella! :)

The Tie-Dye session facilitated by Ella was AMAZING!!! So much fun for the kids (aged 8-12) and adults involved. The arrangements were seamless and kids loved the event invites. The session kept the kids who all have different interests entertained, engaged and enjoying themselves. The kids all said how much they enjoyed the creativity and energy of the session and asked when they could do it again!

Tie-Dye drama sessions are fantastic. The children have been able to explore real life issues such as friendship and conflict using drama. The children have also enjoyed using their imagination to take them to different places each week. Great work Ella, Thank you!

I first completed a Tie-Dye Drama workshop with Ella in lockdown and I can honestly say I haven’t had so much fun in ages! I bought the workshop as a gift experience for my niece and nephews as I thought this would be a perfect way to bring us together.
Our workshop was called Festive Fiasco! The children were engaged from the outset with Ella’s fun, encouraging and positive nature. She inspired the children and bought out their creativity which was heart-warming to see. She praised them each individually and after the session was complete they all asked when they could do the next one!
The hour flew by and I would highly recommend the workshop for children and adults. I booked another session for the family for an early Christmas present and once again Ella didn’t disappoint!!

Our kids, 6 and 9, (normally very distractible!) were fully engaged during the online workshop by Tie-Dye Drama.
What we liked:
* a range of different activities (appealing to their different interests and thinking styles)
* opportunities to move and express themselves in fun ways
* genuine and meaningful praise, encouragement and skillful workshop management from the Tie-Dye Drama facilitators
* collaborating with other kids from different backgrounds & learning styles

All in all, a fantastic experience! Highly recommended 👍🙌

Thank you for a fun hour Ella! We all had so much fun in the session. Loved how interactive the session was and great that the grown ups could join in too. You were brilliant at encouraging the kids to be imaginative and you kept their attention the whole time. Would definitely recommend the session. 🙂

The children enjoyed the sessions and I could see their confidence develop as the weeks went on. I loved seeing the children try new things and step out of their comfort zone.
