Testimonials
Testimonials

"I attended Jan's "Touching Dragons" workshop, as a part of my journey of personal growth. It taught me so much about myself and others, and I am very grateful to have had this invaluable experience. Anyone and everyone would benefit from taking part in Jan's workshop. ~ Katherine Hope-Hume

​

"I chose to do the Touching Dragons workshop with Jan as I was looking for an experiential workshop, rather than the psycho-educational type of professional development that are commonly on offer. This workshop was a gentle, safe, timeless and interesting way to explore areas within myself that can be uncomfortable to go, and I did it in a group!

For me, to talk in a group is terrifying, however during the workshop the fear subsided and there were moments that I was able to have a laugh about myself and let go. I'm left feeling gratitude for the day, the people I was fortunate to meet and share the experience with, and also for what I saw within myself." ~ Michelle
