E3 Artists have just taken on new hip-hop dance act Flava who have just completed a month’s period performing ‘Flash mob’ style dance routines at Alton Towers Theme Park during their Scarefest celebrations. Flava are perhaps best known for reaching the semi-finals of ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent in 2008. They achieved national recognition and capitalized on this hard earned opportunity to do what they love, which is, to dance and perform. “The raw talent and the choreography are as good as anything I’ve seen in America. They are one of the best dance acts I’ve seen in this country. They are terrific.” – Simon Cowell.

Further details regarding Flava will be posted on our main site soon. For booking enquiries regarding Flava you can contact our London based agents on 020 7836 4759. E3 also work with a range of other hip-hop style dance acts available for hire at both private and corporate events. Call our office for details.

Life coaching has surged in popularity in recent years and we’re often asked here at E3 Group for recommendations on behalf of our celebrity clients. As we do not manage or represent any service professionals we advise all clients to take a look at the International Coach Federation website, which is a nonprofit organisation offering resources for professional coaches and for those who are seeking a coach. We also recommend Sapere Life Coaching Brighton, run by Graham Russell. Graham has a history in the television industry but has also trained as a Co-Active Coach® at the Coaches Training Institute in London and now offers a structured life coaching programme suitable for anyone in the entertainment business and beyond.

Last week we reported how the Jayne Middlemiss win on Celebrity Master Chef generated a flurry of interest from event planners looking to hire a celebrity chef. Booking a professional chef for a demonstration, team day or training course has become an increasingly popular option for corporate events and one which we regularly facilitate here at E3 Artists. However, some businesses are not always prepared for the price tag associated with hiring a well-known chef. Fees for top chefs start at around £2,000 for the day.

However, for those who are planning an event without a celebrity budget there are other options. E3 Artists has recently teamed up with catering and hospitality specialists Anne Stewart Ltd. They make it possible to hire a chef for all types of events and circumstances including private cookery lessons, birthday parties and weddings. For further information please contact our London office on 020 7836 4759.
