Team Building
One of the incredible things about the events we for corporates is that the nights have a very strong a team building element.
But people don’t realise it’s a team building activity until after the fact.
That’s the secret to successful team building events: Your team doesn’t know it’s a team building event until after the fact.
And unlike so many team building activities- what we do is not competitive, it doesn’t single people out for attention or put people in teams to chose a leader for an activity, it doesn’t give people with prior experience any advantage, it doesn’t split people into groups, there’s no measure of who’s been better.
What we do with the dancing brings everyone together, without competing, without letting anyone dominate, and has everyone on an equal footing. And it breaks down barriers and has people literally swinging around on the dance floor together before they know it. You simply will not find a better team building activity.
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!
What an incredible experience we had in the Hunter Valley for a team building activity that involved learning individual dances and also partner/group dancing and witnessing the talent of the band members from Swamp Dawkins!
This was such an inclusive experience, even for those watching, and we had many laughs throughout the whole experience.
It didn’t matter if you have never danced before, by the end it felt like we all knew what we were doing! We are already looking into booking them again for a larger group next time. Thanks again!

A SEA OF LAUGHTER AND SMILES!!!
Swamp Dawkins were a fantastic band, all the way from the organisational phase to the performance at our company’s Hoedown.
They had everyone up and participating- it was a sea of laughter and smiles all around.

BLEW ALL OUR EXPECTATIONS AWAY!!!
Michael and the Swamp Dawkins group blew all expectations out of the water when they played at our Namoi Cotton Excellence Awards night in Narrabri.
When booking them I had read the reviews and seen some footage of previous gigs, and thought that they looked like a lot fun – and fun was what we needed. But their set and teaching us to bush dance was way better in real life.
People were dancing that we didn’t know could dance and others were foot tapping and immersed in the music. The only complaint we had on the night was that the band didn’t play for long enough – and we have noted that for next time.
Thank you Swamp Dawkins for adding an extra element of fun to our celebration!
