When your relationship to play changes, the world around you changes. For you. And for greater good.

The golden key to game-changing transformation is by changing our relationship to play. The process of this deep shift, including the ripples that manifest, is what we at The School of Play call Play Tectonics. Imagine a world where what is good for you is good for the system, too.

Play isn’t just an act of hope or faith. Play is an aria of consciousness. Play enables us to self-actualise through accompaniment and mutual support. This is why laughter is the sound of play. Laughter is the sound our heart makes when we are having fun.

Here’s a glimpse and tinkle of what True Play looks like, feels like and sounds like when you experience what we call True Play at The School of Play. Our definition of True Play begins with what play expert Dr. Stuart Brown defines as “safe play, fair play and being a good sport.” Play begins with getting clear on who we are and what we stand for.

We hope you enjoy perusing what emerges from each play adventure and perhaps one day you’ll come join us on the playing field, too.
