“There is no way you can leave [Ann’s] workshop without being altered . . . for the better, of course. It is a TRANSFORMATION, and it does not matter if you are a performer, a medical school student, a retired attorney, 20 years old, 70 years old, artistically experienced, brand new to your creativity: you will DISCOVER THE BEST PART OF WHO YOU ARE and you will get to play with him/her for 2 or 7 or however many precious hours you are in Ann’s workshop for. ‘Feel the fear and do it anyway.’ You will never regret it.” — Jackie Johansen

“This is unequivocally the smartest use of your time if you even have an inkling that you might want to try [writing and performing]. . . . Ann is a TREMENDOUSLY GIFTED TEACHER AND ARTIST who shows up for each person completely. With this type of presence, you will be astounded to find: how free you become; what gets articulated; what you perform; how each individual blooms; and how you and your life will transform.” — Chopsy Gutt

“I was shy with trepidation arriving at Esalen- meeting Ann for the first time immediately settled down my inner-critic. I have been doing workshops with some of the best, well known ‘masters’ in the country — Deepak, Tolle, Myss, Kabot-Zinn, Siegel etc.— and can say without question Ann is MASTERFUL AT HER TEACHING SKILLS — having a rare inner beauty, accepting everyone right where they are in their journey. I would return again and again to go to deeper levels, peeling layers with her. I encourage as many people as possible to experience Ann’s amazing gifts.” — Susan Nichols
