A circus and performing arts camp



The Camp Winnarainbow Kids Camp program is driven by its two core philosophies (The Show Show and The Life Show) and all of its activities are designed to reflect their goals.

The Show Show

Our performance philosophy emphasizes taking risks in a physically and emotionally safe environment. Drawing from the world of circus and theatrical arts, we teach timing, balance, and a sense of humor. We honor the creative spirit of each child in an atmosphere of approval and mutual encouragement.

The Life Show

Camp Winnarainbow provides a training ground to nurture leaders for a peaceful, harmonious and sustainable world by teaching responsibility for one’s own behavior and developing confidence, inner security and appropriate self-expression. We encourage respect for oneself, others, and the environment while valuing the uniqueness of each individual, within the diversity of racial, cultural, economic, and religious backgrounds that comprise our camp community.

Restless Limb Syndrome



What this guys has written in this post is so inspiring..! And as I always say... you can learn so many things from people with a kind of paralysis... you can get so much energy from them..! It is like they turned their disability into a blessing..!

Patch Adams - the representative of optimism



- ...and how do you keep your optimism Doctor..?
- hmmm... let me tell you this... I have never done anything hard in my life... I have never had any struggle... there is no tension in my life... I believe that if you are you, as the designer made you, made your person good, and then use that person as you decide... is this gonna be hard? How the hell can this be hard..? I have not watched TV for 40 years, I am reading 100-150 amazing books per year, I am exercising 1 hour per day, I love my life, my sons, my work..! Hard is doing what you are not! Hard is working in a job you hate, when you look in the mirror and you do not go "WOW!". When you love yourself, whatever anyone says about you... you do not care... you don't even think about it... because you love yourself and you are wondering how to spend it..!

RadioArt - The Art of Antistress Music



Do you need to take some rest and relax from your stressful studying times? Listen to this wonderful radio station.

Master in Music Therapy


IDEC - Universitat Pompeu Fabra

Barcelona
INTER-UNIVERSITY MASTERS

IDEC-Pompeu Fabra University 
Blanquerna-Ramon Llull University

The programme aims to train specialist music therapists so that they can work in a wide range of situations in both education and healthcare. Our philosophy is based on the premise that the music therapist is a person and a professional with a strong connection to music; someone who is committed to using it for healing purposes, to help people who have special requirements and/or who need special support. The knowledge gained by students on this master should leave them prepared and professionally competent, while also maximising personal growth. This is a university degree and therefore aims to provide future specialists with the knowledge and theoretical and practical competencies necessary for professional practice, as well as the methodological rigour and spirit of constant perfectionism that will help them to further develop this profession, whether in practice or in research.

Potential candidates

The course is mainly designed for people working in the fields of education, health and/or music: teachers (pre-school, primary, secondary, special needs and music teaching), speech therapists, physiotherapists, nurses, community workers, psychologists, educationalists, school counsellors, doctors and qualified musicians.
