It was amazing to see the smiles of joy and energy created in that hour of time with over 50 seniors. Also appreciated the handouts after the workshop to help us remember how to stay positive in our daily life.

We can't stop talking about it. We found it helpful to reflect on what has power over us and how to break out of old habits/thought patterns. Thanks for sharing your expertise with us.

I had been fighting a sinus cold...and really did not want to get out of bed the day of the laughter workshop. Immediately following the workshop, I had a professional photoshoot scheduled and then on to my usual non-stop busy day. I had a choice, I could have cancelled everything for the day OR let's go see what this "laughter thing" is all about. Boy, am I glad I decided to go! This workshop was THE best thing I could have done that day! Afterwards, my spirits were lifted sky high... I went to my photoshoot with color in my cheeks and a smile on my face and then tackled the rest of my day with plenty of smiles to go around for all of the people that I encountered. Yes - smiles are contagious! (my sinus infection, good thing, not so much) Smiling Out Loud, Amy Chess What a difference this laughter workshop made for my morning :) …..

We had such a good time just laughing! Julie Ann had us up and moving around stretching and prepping for the laughter exercises. What a great way to spend an hour at the end of the day!

"Laughter Will Transform Your Organization" and "Change is Inevitable" were important segments of our opening Staff Development. Listening to how change does not have to be destructive to the system was timely. Watching an auditorium full of men and women expressing emotion through laughter was hilarious. I would highly recommend Julie Ann for small or large group sessions. We hope to utilize her skills in the near future.

Even though teachers don't always make the best students at begining of the year in service days, she had us all up and moving, laughing, interacting and breathing as a team in a matter of minutes. From first year teachers to the 30+ veterans, everyone participated. Julie Ann's energy and personality was infectious. Highly recommended.

There are so many benefits to simply "laughing out loud", and they all ring so true from my prior experience and learning. The breathing that is encouraged and necessary to laugh, brings new life into my body. It's like doing yoga without all the work! I highly recommend Julie Ann's teaching to anyone interested in wellness and happiness in their lives!
