Vacation rentals in Jamaica

Welcome to mi experience and to Jamaica! I've personally been dancing since I was a kid, doing ska, bogle & more dances with my grandparents. I truly believe dancing is a celebration of your body and a connection to your soul. Yea mon, it well good fi yuh! Here's the structure of my class. We'll start with a warm-up for 5 minutes as we get to know each other a bit. Then we'll get into the hardcore dancing. I'll show you the old and new Jamaican dances. We'll do that for 30 mins then warm down for 10 minutes. I'll also share some history about Jamaica. You'll also have the chance to win Jamaican recipes or a pdf copy of my children's book. It will be so much fun, sweat and overall, happiness. If you want to book a time you don't see here, let me know. Feel free to do several classes and bring your family and friends. The more, the merrier :) I am looking forward to having an irie time with you! I can also tailor my class for children. Groups are welcomed! If you're a couple, I can have it spiced up for you. Join me for any celebration - birthdays, get-togethers, valentines, company events and I'll add that special touch. I can work with your team to tweak this experience to suit your event

On this experience you’ll learn the true story of how chocolate becomes the world’s favourite sweet, a bitter sweet tale of hard work, artisanship and how business can be a force for good. We start with our special welcome to Jamaica. We’re located on the edge of the Blue Mountains overlooking Kingston. We’ll look down across the city towards the harbour as I give a brief history of the island and the historical use of cacao. We then get to know each other before we make our inclusion bars. I’ll tell you about how I went from a BBC Correspondent to a chocolate maker before I explain how we go from the raw ingredients to the finished yummy product. I’ll show you how to hand temper chocolate, from our original development kitchen using a bowl, a table and a spatula. Before I walk you through creating your own custom made inclusion chocolate bars. We then go right into the farm, driving over a river bed, to have a closer look at the cacao estate. We’ll introduce you to the pods up close, we’ll look inside the fruit and I’ll explain how the beans are fermented on the farm and how the nibs are processed before we unveil your bespoke bars. This Experience is great for team-building. Book a private experience for your group. Is your group larger than my listed max group size for private groups? Send me a message. Other things to note Due to the fact I'll be using multiple cameras this will be best to watch on a PC so that you can maximise views and also see your fellow experiencers. Especially when we get into the tasting segment.

Our tour helps you to experience authentic daily life from a Jamaican point of view. Damion is your guide. He grew up in the ghetto and understands the local life, side streets and hidden gems. We meet at Historic Devon House (home of the first black millionaire) from there we take a Local authorized taxi. Our first stop is Liberty Hall where you will discover more about Marcus Garvey and why he is an important figure in shaping the country. Weaving through side streets we get a real feel for garrison (ghetto) life and then visit an inner city food co-op that is helping locals grow fresh produce and eat right. The Rastafarian "Ital is Vital" food philosophy is described and where many visitors choose to try the local fare. From here we take a local taxi, another great experience, to Trenchtown including the Cultural Yard. This is where Bob Marley lived and the birth place of Reggae Music. After you tour the site you can enjoy the Yard with local storytellers, who paint a picture of inner city life and the importance of music in the culture. An authentic experience you will never forget! Record studios can also be explored. Your guide will give you this option at the beginning of the tour. Other things to note Your guide will do everything to ensure you see and meet local people in a safe and secure manner! If you enjoy your tour PLEASE consider tipping the guide. This is his primary source of income!

Afterwards, you can enjoy a drink from the bar if you'd like before being seated in the specially designed cooking studio. Then you'll feast on a cooking show and five-course meal with a bottle of wine per couple. We'll serve chicken, seafood, vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free, and we can accommodate for any allergies. Other things to note Dress casual and wear some comfortable shoes to tour the farm. The farm is a bit elevated so if you choose not to walk, you can just enjoy Zimbali.
