*This experience will be unavailable June 25-July 10th, and July 18-August 11 due to my Olympic schedule* Do you feel like you waste your morning feeling slow, half awake, or unfocused? Do you feel unmotivated when you wake up, and then hope to find inspiration later in the day, but don’t? In this online experience, we’ll walk through the morning routine that helped me get to, and keeps me competing at a world-class level. We’ll start by hydrating with a cold glass of lime-salt water and I’ll tell you the incredible story of how I made my first Olympic team after getting hit by a track and field hammer (warning: it’s the biggest bruise you’ll ever see). This event was the catalyst of my obsession with habits & routines. Next, we'll do some gentle but energising movements to activate your body. Thirdly, we'll go through effective journaling cues to activate a positive and motivated mindset. With blood flowing and a primed outlook, I’ll guide you through a short but highly effective meditation. As the finale, you'll learn the trick of how to enjoy a cold shower as well as some of the physiological benefits. A “cheat sheet” of the routine as well as links to more info is provided after the experience. This Experience is great for team-building, and upon request can be shortened to a 50 minute webinar style event!

Learn how to make world class cocktails from the comfort of your own home! I'll be teaching you all about cocktails; the history, techniques, tools, recipes and more while we make two different cocktails along the way. Be sure to bring your notepad as I have lots of information to share! We'll start by discussing the main techniques used in making cocktails: stirring, shaking and built cocktails and when to use them, followed by an introduction to cocktail tools. From there, we'll make our first cocktail and I'll teach you the history of cocktails and their modern renaissance, while you sip your first drink. I will also discuss some staple ingredients and spirits, some awesome ingredients you can make at home such as flavored syrups, a brief explanation of how ice affects cocktails, the major families of cocktails and more, all with some fun stories thrown in. We'll wrap up with a little more in-depth information before allowing an open period of discussion. As mentioned, I've taught everyone from absolute beginners to world class bartenders on various aspects of this seminar so please reach out beforehand and we can tailor the seminar to your knowledge level! *Please note - the seminar booking is by the number of people, not devices.*

Before rehearsal or a show, I often sneak under the stage or behind a curtain to practice yoga and both mentally and physically prepare for my performance. Sometimes I practice alone, and other times I'm teaching fellow artists or even show technicians and management!! After years of traveling and dancing with some of the world's best I'd love to share my yoga practice and Cirque du Soleil stories with you. BREATHE After saying hello and sharing brief introductions we’ll get down to business with pranayama (breathing) exercises to mindfully bring ourselves into the present moment. MOVE I will guide you through an asana practice (yoga postures) where we can combine movement with breath, work up a bit of a sweat, and find new healthy space in our bodies. MEDITATE We’ll finish the session with dhyāna (meditation) as a way to ground ourselves in the here and now, and seal our practice together. Q&A Let’s chat ☺ I’m open to your questions and am excited to share my love of yoga and the ins and outs of life with Cirque du Soleil. *Please keep in mind that if you sign up for this experience you are expected to participate in the yoga practice. No spectators!

Immerse yourself in the chilling dramas of historic Gastown as you venture into Vancouver's earliest and most gruesome history on this 90-minute walking tour. Follow the lamplight of your guide as you discover the terror of a Great Fire that ate up Gastown in minutes, the long forgotten plague of smallpox, and the unsolved murder of John Bray. Designed for adult audiences, the experience is both a walking tour and a theatre piece. Your guide is a professional actor, performing in character throughout. Every story is grounded in documented Vancouver history, taken from the city archives. The plot line is woven together as the tragic tale of one person's life, ending in a dramatic finale in Gastown's Maple Tree Square. Every one of Gastown's must-see sites and landmarks is visited on the walk, the oldest hotel, the Gastown Steam Clock, you’ll see how Vancouver looked before and after the Great Fire, explore notorious Gaoler's Mews, and walk down the back alleys of Water Street to famous Maple Tree Square. Do not expect a ghost tour or conventional walking tour – this is a performance experience that will pull you so deep into the swirling lamplight and darkened alleys of Gastown’s murky past, you may have a hard time finding your way back out… Other things to note We run the tours rain or shine, if it is raining, be sure to pack an umbrella and wear your rain boots! There are no bathroom breaks on the tour.

Escape the city and hit the local slopes for an action packed, adrenaline filled day on the local ski hills. At 08:45 AM I will collect our guests from downtown Vancouver and set off in our private Mercedes Benz Sprinter van on the short but scenic drive high into the Vancouver mountains. Arriving at Cypress Creek Lodge, I will arrange the ski passes for you and offer some expert local knowledge on the best areas to explore. If you do not have your own ski/snowboard equipment or ski clothes I will help organize all the extra rental equipment needed to ensure you have a great day on the mountain. All levels are welcome at the mountain, with a wide variety of runs and terrain to suit everybody from beginners to expert. You can enjoy wide open groomed slopes, tight tree runs and epic forest explorations, moguls runs, fresh powder lines (fingers crossed) or a day in the park. If this is your first time skiing or snowboarding I can help you get started with some basic tips and pointers before you head up on the ski hill on your own. 90% of people are able to learn the basics on their own within a few hours if they stick with it. Alternatively, if you think you would like to join a group lesson I will be happy to help you organize one as I am not permitted to give private lessons on the ski hill because I am not employed by Cypress Mountain or covered under their insurance. Other things to note EQUIPMENT RENTAL IS NOT INCLUDED. Rentals are extra cost. Guests should bring a warm base layer, any ski or snow gear they may have, extra cash, camera, snacks. There is a restaurant on the mountain.
