Laugh Out LIVE! in partnership with Nourish Whistler Wellness Series presents:

Presence Through Play is a 90-minute laugh retreat designed to help you reconnect with yourself through giggles, movement, creativity, and human connection.

Presented by Laugh Out LIVE! this unique workshop blends the principles of fun expression with wellness in a way that feels energizing, freeing, and awakening.

Set on the stunning shores of Alta Lake with Whistler Blackcomb as your backdrop, this improv-inspired workshop invites you to unplug from the daily grind and reconnect with joy in a supportive, low-pressure environment.

This experience is perfect for:

• Anyone feeling burnt out, stuck in routine, or overly serious lately

• Overworked professionals craving a mental reset

• Creative souls looking to reconnect with their playful side

• Humans who simply want to laugh, connect, and feel more alive

Through guided group games, movement-based activities, and improv-adjacent exercises, you’ll:

• Laugh hard and release stress

• Move your body and get out of your head

• Let go of perfection and overthinking

• Rediscover spontaneity, creativity, and your inner child

No performance experience is needed.

Unlike traditional wellness workshops that focus on stillness or silence, Presence Through Play uses laughter and shared experiences as tools for well-being. Scientific research has shown that laughter can reduce stress hormones, release endorphins, boost mood, and strengthen social connection. In this workshop, you don’t just watch the fun—you become part of it.

Over 90 minutes, you’ll laugh the kind of laugh that makes your shoulders drop and your eyes water. You’ll reconnect with the version of yourself that isn’t worried about productivity, deadlines, or doing everything perfectly.

Participants have described Laugh Out LIVE! workshops as:

“A supportive environment where you can explore, get silly, and grow.”
“Fun, welcoming, and creatively energizing.”
“A fantastic way to connect with great people and blossom outside your comfort zone.”

In today's world, do you crave feeling lighter, brighter, and more present?

So do we.
Let’s play.
