PlayReflections®: Playshops for the Kid in Everyone
PlayReflections®: Playshops for the Kid in Everyone, is a fun and engaging blend of imagination, games, creative movement and relaxation. Each playshop is designed with the needs of a particular group in mind, while the goal remains the same: To nurture a room-full of people sharing a sense of playfulness, safety, well-being, vitality, confidence, delight, and laughter.
Playful Stress Relief

Great for teachers, parents, helping professionals, corporate groups, professional associations and conferences, seniors, pretty much anyone who used to be a kid... In this playshop, participants will learn to develop a lighter attitude as we explore the joy of the child within. Through group interaction, games, spontaneity, imagination, silliness and movement, we will enrich our creative process and develop a new level of self-esteem. Playfulness cultivates an attitude which joyfully bridges and enhances our work and personal lives.
Fun Is a Good Thing: Lighten the Load

For adult birthdays, parties, team building retreats, human service providers, corporate groups, intergenerational groups. Play is essential to a healthy life and creates a feeling of truly belonging. Rather than society's usual forms of play - competition, contests and lose/win scenarios, there is a better way. In this playshop, we'll enthusiastically create community together through expressive, inviting, joyful experiences. We'll unwind, relax and rediscover our playful nature.
Dance Play/Spirit Moves

For anyone with a body. There is a bit of child inside everyone. As we take on adult roles, we frequently cut off that part that celebrates our joy and aliveness. Using a wide variety of musical selections as inspiration, participants are invited to explore freedom of expression through movement. The emphasis is on creativity and delight, but not on technique. We'll dance, leap, fly, stretch, roll, giggle and cavort gleefully in sacred wildness.
The Alchemy of Imagination and Play

For anyone wanting to create a lighter attitude in their lives. Perfect for retreats, conferences, workplaces.
Alchemy - the transmutation of base metal into gold, the discovery of a universal cure for disease, a power or process of transforming something common into something special, an inexplicable or mysterious transmuting.
As children, play and laughter gave us our first experiences of creativity, spontaneity, communication and willingness to take risks. Now, busy in adult mode, we often forget to play and sometimes we have trouble remembering how to access those vital skills that grow out of play. This playshop is for anyone wanting to create a lighter attitude in their lives, with an emphasis on honoring each person's willingness to take risks and stumble and grow. Through a fun and engaging blend of imagination, creative movement, non-competitive games, music and relaxation, we will encourage cooperation and foster self-esteem - the building blocks for skills in problem-solving, stress relief, developing confidence, and motivation for people of all ages. Playfulness cultivates an attitude which joyfully bridges and enhances our work and personal lives.

Children with Autism and their families

Jeanne applies her decades of learning and exerience working with children with autism and their families with a playful approach to learning, based in part on the Floortime/DIR model, individual work with children with autism and other developmental delays. Custom-designed playshops are available - just ask.
What To Do With The Young and The Restless

For parents, early educators, school-age providers, helping professionals, professional associations and conferences. This playshop focuses on techniques for reaching the child within to most effectively and intuitively work with young children. By using creative movement, games, music, relaxation strategies, imagination and more, we will emphasize cooperation, self-esteem, communication and creativity. Through a child-centered approach, parents/teachers/providers can tap the natural skills and interests of children to expand the quality of care they receive.
Energizers

Cooperative wild & wonderful play with preschoolers or school-age kids. Let's all feel good about ourselves! Since curiosity, expression, laughter and loving to learn are essential components of a healthy life, this program is intentionally designed to meet the developmental needs of young children to do just that. Designed for the specific needs of your group.
Hearts and Hands

For the curious. This gentle, holistic approach to healing and bodywork uses an intuitive blend of techniques-energy work, sensation and breath awareness, movement and humor. We'll practice conscious touch and explore specific hands-on techniques that develop sensitivity and trust. No previous bodywork experience necessary.
Experiential Keynote Presentations

For conferences, groups larger than 50. Jeanne has engaged groups from 50 to 500 in lively, interactive, and enlightening Keynote Presentations.
Writing a Moving Experience

For creative beings wanting to express themselves. By incorporating an engaging array of activities, we will be flexing two sets of muscles - those which we use to move/dance and physically express through our bodies AND those of the more introspective, stream of consciousness pen-to-paper variety.
