New Challenges

Creative projects and the arts generally have always been my life-blood.  Having founded a couple of charities, been a trustee of many, and having also been a director of arts-based companies, it is a delight to be able to help and support others.

Project Development

CONSULTANCY - The challenges of getting a venture off the ground can be demanding as well as rewarding. I may be able to help.  Without commitment, do get in touch if you think I can.
STAGING AND TEACHING - More coaching movement and dance therapy thesedays rather than the disciplines of a specific technique or particular dance routines.
PHOTOGRAPHY - I continue to develop photography skills as a creative art form.  I am available for commissions particularly if it is part of a larger project.
PORTFOLIO - Elements of some projects are added to an online portfolio in Behance from time to time and which may be of interest, for example a book launch or  research project.

Buddhism
As a long-standing Dhamma practitioner, I also have a close working association with Anandagiri Forest Monastery in Thailand and work directly with Ajahn Achalo, the abbot of the monastery.  The monastery is not a teaching monastery and therefore is for monks to live and practice although it is supported by a dedicated sangha (community).  Over recent years the monastery has grown considerably with the most recent building of a magnificent Chedi.  Ajahn Achalo continues to lead retreats in Malaysia and elsewhere, also most years he leads a pilgrimage to the sacred Buddhist sites of India. 
Our work together is to create an online sangha, a wider community around the world to practitioners who may not otherwise have much access to the Dhamma teachings let alone gain valuable and rare insights into the workings and development of a monastery.  The website we run together is Peace Beyond Suffering (I am the webmaster).  Each image above is a link to a specific area of the Peace Beyond Suffering website where you can find out more about the teachings, Ajahn Achalo, and Anandagiri Forest Monastery.
