Street Skills & Expressive Arts with Peak Pursuits

Street Skills as Social Development Tools

Peak Pursuits have been incorporating Street Skills into their work with young people for a number of years. It has proven to be a very successful and rewarding means of engaging the participants on our programmes and residentials. Many of the young people find themselves achieving and discovering abilities that they never knew they had.

As with our outdoor adventure activities, the aim of the Street Skills is to provide a tool for the development of the participant. The music, graffiti art and street dance workshops aim to break through barriers, providing a focus and enabling new forms of self expression.

By encouraging awareness, boosting confidence, self esteem and fostering a spirit of co-operation the participants work towards their finished piece of music, artwork or dance routine. The creative process challenges and empowers the young people and through this process useful life skills are nurtured.

All sessions are run by expert practitioners who create a fun environment in which the participant can learn new skills and develop their social skills. Peak Pursuits offer Street Skills as additional activities within their existing programmes and residentials or as a programme in its own right.
