Having earned a Higher Diploma in Education from National University of Ireland, University College Dublin in 2005 and being a Board Member of the European Juggling Association, an active member of the Board of Management of the Galway Community Circus, Stephen is intimately involved with the teaching of circus skills as a teambuilding and educational tool. Stephen has developed a series of teambuilding games and activities, suitable for corporate teams, sports teams, project groups and other adult groups interested in learning teambuilding skills together.

Highlighting operational, tactical or strategic initiatives within the team environment to build a team's ability to work closer and more efficiently together can form part of these teambuilding seminars. The workshops and seminars are fun and enjoyable while maintaining the goal of building relationships between team members or solidifying team communications.
