BOUNCE is a world where the wall becomes the floor, a slam-dunk is within your grasp and the rules of gravity no longer apply. It’s packed with lots of things to do with kids and the family, it takes the rush of getting airborne and adds a bunch of new dimensions – from aerial manoeuvres to slam dunking, wall running and dodgeball warfare. The best part is it doesn’t matter if you’re under 5 or an action sports junkie in training – you’re never too old or too young to have an awesome time.
With more than 100 interconnected trampolines housed within huge, colourful spaces at a growing number of locations around the world, BOUNCE is a spring-loaded urban playground with a wide range of things to do with kids; where hard surfaces are replaced with circus-grade sponge, giant air bags and springs.
The world of Bounce is not only there for the young at heart either.  This venue is the perfect location for your corporate function or team building event where you can leave your shoes behind and join your colleagues for a few hours of fun.
Picture
All of our packages include…
  • exclusive venue hire for  4 hours with a tailored package within the venue for your guests (75-140)
  • A dedicated party host to guide you through the action, including dodgeball, slam dunk, free-jumping and the Big Bag.
  • Official BOUNCE grip socks for everyone.
  • All party food options are Halaal or Kosher on request 
Picture

There are so many different activities in various parts of the venue, so the party can be split into teams and either compete against each other or just have fun along the way.  The awesome activity areas include slam dunk, dodgeball, big bag, slack-line, obstacle, high performance and free jump.
There is also an extra option on 
offer where the guests can be part of a drumming circle to wind down after their time jumping - Step into the shoes of a Rock Star for an hour – a professional musician playing drums to your favourite songs. No need for any musical skills or talent – the entire experience is super easy and fun and no one is singled out!
  1. Learning some simple, fun, powerful beats and techniques that have participants tapping their steering wheels all the way home.
  2. Dividing into 2 or 3 teams each learning a different rhythm, then playing those separate rhythms together as one team creating a MASSIVE feeling of synergy.
  3. Playing pure-fun games that will have people in stitches (stitches of laughter, obviously) 

Hurry the Bounce Inc team are waiting to take your booking, whether it be for an end of year function, a team build or just some time with your work colleagues or employees away from the daily grind. Contact the team NOW

Creative Therapy for the Soul

9/10/2015

It has been said that one should never grow up and that we should try and stay in touch with our inner child.  The perfect way of doing this is to take yourself back in time and do some colouring in as suggested by the French a few years ago.

Recently, it was discovered that colouring in intricate patterns and designs is in fact good for psyche and since France started doing it back in 2013, the whole world is following suit and publishers everywhere are offering books full of fun for people in adulthood.  
In April this year, the two best selling books on Amazon were of the colouring in variety, so it seems the trend is here to stay for a while.

The benefits of filling the black and white pages with colour are thought to be distraction from everyday life and problems, relaxation and it is thought to be a form of meditation too.  I tried it out and had a blast choosing my colour order for the pattern and trying not to colour outside the lines...fun for hours!  In fact, I got so carried away 45 minutes went by and this is what I have to show for it.
Picture
There are many options available on the market, but we just love these ones from South African publisher Tracey McDonald.  Creative Therapy for the Soul gives you hours of colouring to de-stress your mind, body and soul whilst finding your inner child.
The beauty is there is nobody to judge you, so you can choose the colours you wish and take your time...whether on the plane, during a lunch hour or sitting by the pool, this is one activity that you will be hooked on from the start
Picture


The book is also available with an Afrikaans title too, although, it doesn't really matter what language you speak to pick up either of these books,  as art and creativity are a universal language on their own.

Happy colouring!
