I am an Early Childhood Educator and I bring my 12 years of expertise into the experiences I design & facilitate.

At the end of the day, we are all just big kids in need of love, encouragement and a safe space to explore and discover ourselves. This is the container I provide.

The JOYFEST Experience.

JoyFEST is a community building catalyst. Play helps us catalyze bonding as we rebuild trust with one another. Play catalyzes natural, authentic connection. It liberates the human spirit. This is more important now than ever as we recover from the pandemic and revive our collective spirit.

When was the last time you laughed so hard your stomach ached or smiled so hard your face hurt?

It’s time to ENGAGE the whole community with JoyFest!

ENGAGE with JoyFest is like the best time of your life... but so much more.

Everyone around you is on the same team, encouraging you, and inviting you to express your heart out.

It's a feeling of being yourself while being a part of something really special. You feel zero insecurity regardless if you know anyone or not. You are filled with joy. You feel accepted.

ELEVATING YOUR EVENTS - Community Engagement.

It’s all about that vibe, yes that vibe, we bring the vibe.

Our teams are highly innovative and our participants are a part of the creative process.

ENGAGE with JoyFEST is all about showing up to create an elevating experience together. We welcome and encourage everyones creativity which we leverage to build a co-created program that enhances the collective spirit.

Get ready for an amped up and endorphin producing good time! It’s time to play again!

"There is something innately magical about the JoyFEST experience".

 

There is nothing worse than throwing a stinker of a party or event. You know the kind.. Everyone is biting time until the event is over. People are disengaged and reaching for more booze to make the event tolerable. Don’t let this be you “Party Planner Person”. We help you offer experiences that will be talked about and remembered for years after!

Success for every person comes down to a NEW decision:

Are you ready to experience something different?

    “always - better - together”

  • We motivate crowds safely by leading them with a carrot instead of hitting them with a stick. We engage the crowd playfully. This is how we are helping our city rebuild unity and trust.

    We keep the crowd joyful. We elevate cooperation and collective spirit through music, activities (not limited to and including: dance, walking, biking) and destinations.

    Joy, kindness and respect are powerful catalysts for inspiring cooperation.

    We are a team of community leaders, skilled group facilitators, artists and musicians.

  • In our planning we will explore and collaborate. Your input plays a big part in these results.

    Our programs welcome and encourage everyone.

    As avengers of joy. Our presence de-escalates tense crowd energy. We elevate group cooperation and playfulness.

    We are here to work alongside the production team as engagement pioneers. We are pioneering a new way of working together.

    We lead with kindness, joy, hope and celebration over fear.

    We will cheer, laugh and dance along with us.

    We are here to revolutionize the task force and revitalize common unity in spirit by leading with joy, celebration and cooperation. We are bringing unity and celebration as an integral part of our city wide events and culture.

    entertain, delight + enlighten the human spirit,

    We ask us to take a proactive stance to revitalize the hurting/bruised energetic spirit of our people from covid/ and nurture unity to enhance our collective spirit.

    Depression rates skyrocketted during covid along with addictions/alcohol/pot etc.

    Now that we have been developing mastery over how to collaborate our teams and unify our crowds. We would like to continue offering our services to the city at wide. We ran city-wide bike raves, community gatherings in the park, mini festivals,

Group Facilitation

  • Emotions are designed like a rainbow, full of colour, variety and expanse.  Each colour of emotion brings gifts and learnings which can benefit us.  Our expression in it's fullness is magnificent. It's transformational. Ecstasis is healing and filled with opportunities for expansion. We become vibrant versions of our wonder-full selves.

    We define JOY not as FEELING POSITIVE EMOTIONS, but rather Feeling positive ABOUT emotions.

    Translated: Free from judgement, free to be, ourselves in our experience. We notice what is. We are not designed to live in one emotion. 

    Our programs consist of artfully selected music. This drives out our emotionality. This allows us to exercise a technique called “emotional fluidity”, the ability to flow between one emotional state of being to another.

    This reminds us that we are the causing agent of our emotional base. We realize we no longer need to remain stagnant or stuck in uninspiring moods We learn we can create the results we want at any time.
