"To shine your armor or to shed it, that is the question." -Keith Johnstone + Will Shakespeare

These workshops are for any of you with "Yes-And" skill who are ready to shed habits in order to go on new adventures. If you tend to be serious, come play a ditzy elf, if you tend toward ditzy, come be a seriously fascist elf. You get the picture. This is a directed leap into new ways of being yourself (or elf) - so if you're chomping to stretch who you think you are, and to take direction in a heartbeat just for the sheer fun of it, then come!

"In Ecstacize™ I felt a connection to my body that I hadn't felt for a very long time. It was a primal, physical coming home to myself. It was pure joy and your guidance was liberating. You create an environment where we open fully to ourselves, our joy and our possibility. Really, where we open to life." -Denise Gilbert

"I am well aware of how much of life I miss because I'm a planner -- I'm always thinking about what's next and how to prevent problems that don't even exist. Working with Ann is a gut-level, heart-level reminder of the joy that life holds everyday when I experience it in-the-moment, as it unfolds. She is one of the most masterful facilitators I have ever seen in action." -Shelli F.

"My usual tendency was to maintain control and shy away from situations outside my comfort zone. Now I'm better at trusting my ability to spontaneously deal with the unfamiliar. It's very empowering. With improv, you experience it in your bones. After a lesson like that it's hard not to come away with it impacting the creative processes in all parts of your life. Thanks again." -Chris J., Internet Product Designer

"Ann is an awesome leader and she's on FIRE and it was contagious!"    -Audrey Q.

“Ecstacize™ is a terrific experience.  This workshop helped me lift up my head, reminding me about the vitality and sense of possibility that sometimes gets lost of as I shuffle through my day-to-day routine. Ann provided a creative spark that ignited each person in the room, and we all carried a little fresh ‘buzz’ out the door with us.” -Dr. Vijay Mehrotra

"Ann Swanberg is a teacher that lives and breathes, works and plays as close to the taproot of her inspiration and our indigenous intelligence as anyone I have known. Awaken, say yes, and flow into your body's home, and try one of her offerings. I am deeply grateful for her work, play and teachings."
