We will have a tour of the centre and safety talk at 3.30pm on the 7th and workshops are due to start at 4.30pm. However if participants are unable to attend the tour and safety talk, please let us know so we can ensure you receive all relevant information when you do arrive.

Workshops will run up to 3pm on Monday 10th June.

The retreat will aim to help artists develop their circus skill base, learn new disciplines and art forms and perfect their performance skills and act creation.

Workshops included are listed in the form below.

The retreat will be held at Northcote Heavy Horse Centre, Sandy Lane, Great Steeping, Spilsby, Lincolnshire. PE23 5PS. Northcote Horses is a small but dedicated animal welfare charity that houses a range of horses and other animals. Participants of the retreat will have the pleasure of meeting some of the animals and there will be an opportunity to get involved with their day to day care. Animals housed at Northcote Horses include horses, llamas, pigs, birds of prey, alpacas and poultry.

The number of participants at the retreat will be extremely limited.

This cost above includes all workshops, photoshoot with an edited photo and the opportunity to purchase more, food (main meals only) and camping space. Participants will need to bring their own tent and sleeping bags and any snacks they want etc...
