Excellent delivery, very clear overview of what is needed for VV (examples given throughout), delivered in a very friendly, informal fashion. The two hours flew in and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it!

Just Amazing!

Totally drawn into the visual storytelling!

High recommended!

I felt that Ish presented his workshop extremely well, he made me feel very relaxed and the experience of the workshop very enjoyable. Ish explained every detail very clearly in order to grasp the context of what is required to use VV. Ish encouraged everyone to partake and gave feedback and praise like a true professional. The whole experience was most enjoyable and has given me the confidence to practice the art of VV.

For anyone wanting to incorporate more body language/facial expression this is a must.  For me when translating a song to BSL sometimes the BSL just doesn’t meet the lyrics or the music which is why I wanted to do this workshop.  Absolutely wonderful session.

I couldn’t recommend Ish’s VV World workshop enough! Ish had me engaged for the entire 2 hours, the time really flew by! As a second language user of BSL this was a great session to learn about the linguistics that make up the elements of VV and to give it a go in a safe and comfortable environment. As well as understand the art and creative expression that is at the heart of VV performances. Ish provided us with a master class in VV, himself being so talented, I could watch his VV all day! Do not hesitate to get yourself booked onto a workshop.

Learning should be fun – and this workshop was not only great fun, but really informative and eye-opening. It’s given me thirst for more learning and research on the subject and I’m sure it will have a positive impact on my work as a BSL interpreter, as well as my ability to play and have fun with sign and VV

Ish was absolutely brilliant! I hadn’t expected a small group but worked really well and all were very encouraging and supportive. I liked how Ish signed back to us what we had produced for us to see how it would be better adapted. This was a good way for us to see how it can be done and areas to improve on.

Very good job on explaining very clearly.  That's easy to understand with fab demonstrations and examples.

Fab performance at the end!

Ishtiaq shows how it is possible to embody the character of a person, animal, or thing.  He visually creates a story in a way that is totally captivating.

I will definitely be recommending the workshop to the London and SE ASLI group.

It was an evening well spent. I enjoyed it as much as going to the theatre! Quality course with ample opportunity given for us to experiment and participate.

Very many thanks Ish.
