Paige Lussier Johnson- COSMIC IMPROV

  • N

    NH

Institution/Business Type: Artist / Creative (Individual)

Paige "fell into" teaching when she attended an acting workshop called Stages of Learning while working in the professional theater in New York City in 2006. There she started building a foundation for her life as a Teaching Artist and Motivational Speaker. Paige moved to New Hampshire and went through the process to become a vetted teaching artist for the state and is listed on their education roster. She has taught theater workshops in collegiate seminars, public schools grades k-8, private schools grades 2-12, senior centers, preschools, children's museums, youth and professional theater master classes and to non-actors of all ages. Paige has led summer camps, after school programs, in school arts residencies and many community-based workshops.  One of her favorite things to do is turn her workshops into fundraisers for the school/organization who hire her! The nature of improv means she can work with and lead EVERYONE into these games - including an audience for fundraisers and ticket admission- where the workshop attendees become the cast and entertainment for an evening showcase for friends and family - adding a wonderful fundraising opportunity! Her living literature workshop skills are wonderful for being a part of your curriculum and helping the ideas come to life for all ages!  Paige has been producing 24 hour play festivals for the local community in Jaffrey, NH since 2016.  We all need more JOY AND LAUGHTER in our life!  As a Life Coach and Reiki Master Paige loves anchoring all of her work in social and emotional learning. Her signature workshop ”COSMIC IMPROV" incorporates healing and laughter while using play-based games, non-violent communication and guided meditations to release stress, hurts and frustrations in a fun and safe zone. Being a motivational speaker and coach for business and professionals alike she also likes to use Improv and weaves those fundamentals in all she does. 1) Follow the Yes 2) Listen to really Listen 3) Say YES, AND 4) Have fun 5) Everything is possible! If you are looking for a motivational speaker, one day Improv workshop or long term living literature artist residency please contact Paige Lussier Johnson direct at 603-562-0777 or email paige.jl.johnson@gmail.com please have your subject line say "CREATIVE GROUND INQUIRY" and your name/school.
