Teamevents with Escola de Samba
The Team for your teambuilding
Using the power of music and drumming to create community, motivation and communication is one of the oldest evolutionary secrets of human success. This power is still at work today. Music also reaches those areas in us that are inaccessible to rational arguments directly via the limbic system, an evolutionarily old part of our brain responsible for emotions. The result: What we experience in this way has a deeper and more lasting effect than any presentation, no matter how perfect.
- Use the power of Samba to open people up to your project
- Anchor content learned with music in deeper levels of consciousness
- Create an atmosphere of shared joy and enthusiasm
Teambuilding with Escola de Samba - Experience the power of team spirit with your team – holistically and sustainably.
