Most will teach by explaining and describing. I teach by applying and demonstrating. Everything I teach is physical and easy to practice with lots of laughs and fun along the way.

When I am not teaching speaking I am doing it as an event host and emcee. I travelled across Canada twice as the host for both the Invictus Games and the PanAm Games torch relays. From 5 people in intimate shows to 50000 in huge national events I am equally comfortable.
