Drumming For Beginners (7:00 PM - 8:30 PM)
The drumming is fantastic. It’s like a wonderful meditation. It feels so good to focus on the rhythms and there is a great sense of achievement when the music really rolls and flows. A real relaxing stress-buster and it clears the mind – and it makes you feel – HAPPY! – M Ker, Glasgow
The Djembe drumming proved to be really uplifting
because, being an old codger with no musical skills, I had not expected
to be any good at all but with your very patient and understanding help I
felt that I coped reasonably well. It is very satisfying when you
finally feel that you are starting to get into the rhythm and get (most)
of the notes right and I can certainly see what you mean when you
describe the benefits of drumming - P Urquhart, Bridge of Weir

Drumming is so much more than just making a noise... it can help
concentration, focus, co-ordination, counting, confidence and listening
skills. You may also find it relaxing, energising, meditative and most
of all…….fun. Wow!
So, why not come along and see for yourself?
The class is taught by Fiona McLaren (SoundJourney) and is suitable for Beginners
and Returners.

As well as playing djembe you will also have the chance to play dundun
(bass drums) and bell patterns during the course.
NB: Please sign up to let us know that you are coming and drums will be
offered on a first come basis.
Lastly, dont worry if you think you dont have rhythm - anyone with a
heartbeat has rhythm!
More testimonials:-
I highly
recommend this energising and fun class. It is so well taught that even
people with no rhythm, like myself, can play the first week! - T
Stephens, Glasgow
I see it more as a "therapeutic"
device, something relaxing and liberating. Sometimes I came to class
very tired or maybe in a bad mood and it was relaxing , cheered me up
and I went back home satisfied. It had a good effect on my sleep too!

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (11:30 AM - 1:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Monthly Laugh N De-Stress (Glasgow City Centre, West End, Lunchtimes & Stirling) (12:30 PM - 2:15 PM)
JOYWORKS EVENTS: FAST BECOMING THE ORIGINAL WAY TO DE-STRESS
MONTHLY LAUGHTER WORKSHOPS
Using laughter yoga (simple tension releasing exercises based on mime and play) drama games and relaxation participants leave the session feeling energised connected and often on cloud nine!
Events are facilitated by Sharon Miller. She has just returned from India where she was invited to stay at Dr Kataria's home (the founder of Laughter Yoga) she visited the original laughter club founded in 1995 in Mumbai with Mrs. Kataria. Fifteen years on there are now 6,000 laughter yoga clubs all over the world. Joyworks is the first in Glasgow - now in its second successful year.
Sharon utilises twenty years extensive experience of working in the arts and education, rehabilitation and mental health for both government and non-government agencies to ensure high quality experiences to remember.
Come along for an original way to meet new people, to forget about physical pain, to alleviate depression, discover new techniques for work or for a fun way to invoke a natural high!
The most fascinating fact about a laughter workout is based on the scientific fact that our bodies can’t tell the difference between ‘real’ laughter and ‘fake’ laughter. So participants get all the physiological benefits of a good laugh, without comedy or humour.
I leave feeling good about the world and its people...A warm feeling of wellbeing hits me and I realise I’m glad I came tonight. I have giggled until my cheeks were sore, and enjoyed a raucous belly laugh or two. As I walk out into the night air I can still feel the warmth of Miller and her laughing strangers.

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a
unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Family Show at 3.00pm and Evening Show at 7.00pm
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second
Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to
two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (7:00 PM - 8:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (7:00 PM - 8:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Drumming For Beginners (7:00 PM - 8:30 PM)
The drumming is fantastic. It’s like a wonderful meditation. It feels so good to focus on the rhythms and there is a great sense of achievement when the music really rolls and flows. A real relaxing stress-buster and it clears the mind – and it makes you feel – HAPPY! – M Ker, Glasgow
The Djembe drumming proved to be really uplifting
because, being an old codger with no musical skills, I had not expected
to be any good at all but with your very patient and understanding help I
felt that I coped reasonably well. It is very satisfying when you
finally feel that you are starting to get into the rhythm and get (most)
of the notes right and I can certainly see what you mean when you
describe the benefits of drumming - P Urquhart, Bridge of Weir

Drumming is so much more than just making a noise... it can help
concentration, focus, co-ordination, counting, confidence and listening
skills. You may also find it relaxing, energising, meditative and most
of all…….fun. Wow!
So, why not come along and see for yourself?
The class is taught by Fiona McLaren (SoundJourney) and is suitable for Beginners
and Returners.

As well as playing djembe you will also have the chance to play dundun
(bass drums) and bell patterns during the course.
NB: Please sign up to let us know that you are coming and drums will be
offered on a first come basis.
Lastly, dont worry if you think you dont have rhythm - anyone with a
heartbeat has rhythm!
More testimonials:-
I highly
recommend this energising and fun class. It is so well taught that even
people with no rhythm, like myself, can play the first week! - T
Stephens, Glasgow
I see it more as a "therapeutic"
device, something relaxing and liberating. Sometimes I came to class
very tired or maybe in a bad mood and it was relaxing , cheered me up
and I went back home satisfied. It had a good effect on my sleep too!

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (11:30 AM - 1:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a
unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Family Show at 3.00pm and Evening Show at 7.00pm
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second
Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to
two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (7:00 PM - 8:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (7:00 PM - 8:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Drumming For Beginners (7:00 PM - 8:30 PM)
The drumming is fantastic. It’s like a wonderful meditation. It feels so good to focus on the rhythms and there is a great sense of achievement when the music really rolls and flows. A real relaxing stress-buster and it clears the mind – and it makes you feel – HAPPY! – M Ker, Glasgow
The Djembe drumming proved to be really uplifting
because, being an old codger with no musical skills, I had not expected
to be any good at all but with your very patient and understanding help I
felt that I coped reasonably well. It is very satisfying when you
finally feel that you are starting to get into the rhythm and get (most)
of the notes right and I can certainly see what you mean when you
describe the benefits of drumming - P Urquhart, Bridge of Weir

Drumming is so much more than just making a noise... it can help
concentration, focus, co-ordination, counting, confidence and listening
skills. You may also find it relaxing, energising, meditative and most
of all…….fun. Wow!
So, why not come along and see for yourself?
The class is taught by Fiona McLaren (SoundJourney) and is suitable for Beginners
and Returners.

As well as playing djembe you will also have the chance to play dundun
(bass drums) and bell patterns during the course.
NB: Please sign up to let us know that you are coming and drums will be
offered on a first come basis.
Lastly, dont worry if you think you dont have rhythm - anyone with a
heartbeat has rhythm!
More testimonials:-
I highly
recommend this energising and fun class. It is so well taught that even
people with no rhythm, like myself, can play the first week! - T
Stephens, Glasgow
I see it more as a "therapeutic"
device, something relaxing and liberating. Sometimes I came to class
very tired or maybe in a bad mood and it was relaxing , cheered me up
and I went back home satisfied. It had a good effect on my sleep too!
- P Vacca, Glasgow
Venue: University of Glasgow | 64 Oakfield Avenue | off
University Avenue | Glasgow | G12 8LT

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (11:30 AM - 1:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

sport. These classes are suitable for all levels but are aimed at those
just beginning their training.

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a
unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Family Show at 3.00pm and Evening Show at 7.00pm
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second
Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to
two per
paying adult)

Teams also play fun games outside of the cubicles,

brand-new, bigger and better than ever seen before!
We are looking for a lively studio audience of
children and adults to share in the fun and cheer for the team they want
to win! (All children must be aged 9-13 years old)
Copycats will be recorded in June and July 2010

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (11:30 AM - 1:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a
unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Family Show at 3.00pm and Evening Show at 7.00pm
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second
Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to
two per
paying adult)

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (7:00 PM - 8:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre (7:00 PM)
The Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, home to a unique exhibition of Kinemats
(kinetic sculptures), is the extraordinary home of these tiny carved
figures and pieces of scrap which dance to haunting music and
synchronised lighting, as machinery and shadows come alive.
The enchanting drama of Sharmanka (meaning barrel-organ)
originated in St Petersburg and began in Russia in 1988, as a result of
the collaboration between the sculptor/mechanic Edward Bersudsky and the
theatrical critic and director Tatiana Jakovskaya. However, increasing
economic depression and the withdrawal of local authorities' support for
art meant the exhibition eventually had to leave Russia in 1993, when
it found its way to Glasgow.
Labelled by The Sunday Times
as "Bizarre, hilarious, ghoulish...unmissable," the magical show is
growing in size and popularity, undertaking commissions and exhibiting
both in Europe and the USA. New kinemats are added every year.
Venue: Trongate 103 | 14 King Street | (Second Floor) | Glasgow | G1 5HD
Cost: £4.00; concessions £3.00; 4-16 yrs free (up to two per
paying adult)

River City Tours, Dumbarton Studio (10:00 AM)
The River City Tours return in June and July 2010.
On the tour you get the chance to walk through Montego Street and
explore the front rooms of your favourite characters. You find out more
about how a television drama is put together and get the chance to take
photos to remind you of your trip to Shieldinch!
Tours take place during the summer break in filming so the cast will
not be present. Sometimes changes to the sets take place during the
summer break so we cannot always guarantee access to every set.
The tour lasts approximately one and a half hours and does involve a
lot of walking, so please wear sensible shoes. You will also be on our
outside set some of the time so please dress comfortably for the

Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals (11:30 AM - 1:00 PM)
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with
the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and
use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The
overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving
a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with
less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and
mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling
play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport
occurs rapidly.
