Our adult beginner course is well under way, we ha Our adult beginner course is well under way, we had a great session today. The course was in extremely high demand this year so unfortunately we were only able to take on 12 people; we'd love to be able to take on more.

Here (vid) are our beginners today doing a warm up game we came up with called Superheroes. This was a pretty short game today, we only did a small number of heroes.

Edit: unfortunately half the video was cut off 🙄🙄 warmup details in the comments...
