In #RestorativeJustice everyone’s voice should be listened to. Check out the brilliant work of our colleagues at CYCJ Scotland on what kids under 12 think of RJ and what justice means to them.

Tomorrow! So looking forward to this!
Join us for an unforgettable day of world trad dance and music. Part of Pomegranates Festival 2024. Trad Dance Forum

FREE in-person and online so you can enjoy this from anywhere!

Here’s the running order of the day:

I’m super excited to be joining the Pomegranates workshops leaders this year in demonstrating the dance steps for Southern Italian Tammurriata as well as the festival's finale performance at the Scottish Storytelling Centre to mark UNESCO’s International Dance Day on the 29th of April 2024👏

The Pomegranates Fest is back! Last year had so much fun trying out 12 dances spanning almost all continents: Europe, Asia, Africa & the Americas. This year’s line-up looks as varied & inspiring, can't wait to delve into a rhythmic wonderland of vibrant folk dances and melodies!

Restorative Justice is a powerful tool that can help reduce trauma and aid in the recovery process after experiencing harm, and yet many people are still unfamiliar with it. Well done Why me? for this great campaign! Let's continue raising awareness of RJ.

Had a blast at Psychology of Magic show at Edinburgh Science yesterday! From mind-boggling optical illusions to transforming a tea towel into a chicken, Richard Wiseman’s charismatic personality and incredible magic tricks had us all in stitches!

Education lies at the heart of any transformative change. Starting with families, schools, children can learn how to be restorative, creating a shift in mindsets & contributing to building a sustainable, community-minded society we all want to live in.

Happy #WorldPuppetryDay to all who are fascinated by this ancient art form! From playful children’s shows through stand-up comedy, to challenging performance art – there is barely a genre or subject that can’t be enriched by the animation of the inanimate🎭

Yesterday had a rollicking good time at Southern Italian folk dance workshop, enjoying the swift and lively steps of the dance of the spider from Puglia region, there’s still this familiar upbeat hum playing in my head..
Looking forward to the next workshop in April! 💃

A beautiful Saturday morning on Royal Mile, with great company and entertainment! Love street performance and puppetry ☺️ This one was quite naughty, jumping out on some unsuspecting people just passing by, generating a few good screams and a lot of laughter for us the audience

Had a brilliant Sunday afternoon with lovely folks, music & dance from the Southern Italy at the Stockbridge Library. Thanks for Trad Dance Forum for organising the workshop!
Fancy trying out? Join us at the next one on 3rd of March at the Counting House, Edinburgh!
