We booked Fundamentals of Play for a corporate team-building workshop and absolutely loved the experience. The session was engaging and interactive without feeling overwhelming. The concepts were easy to understand, and the games made it fun and approachable to put the learnings into practice. Luis and Rachel did an excellent job facilitating the workshop and creating an environment where everyone felt comfortable participating. I would happily participate in another workshop with them and would highly recommend them to other corporate teams looking for a more unique and memorable team-building experience.

They were really great and they reminded us to it is important to always have fun in little things. All the laughters that I might have not had in the last couple of months, it feels like I had it in these couple of hours!!! Thanks team!!!

Luis and his team delivered an elite experience. As with painting, 90% of the job is the prep — and Luis’ preparations were thorough and meticulous. When event day arrived, everything worked flawlessly. My team had tons of fun and absorbed some important lessons along the way. 100% would repeat!

They came to our team building session and to be honest the team was skeptical at first. Even the longest hold outs warmed up and by the end we were all laughing and having a great time. Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful experience with Fundamentals of Play! They came to our workplace, “Muskoka Retreat Centre” and created such a fun, positive, and encouraging atmosphere for everyone. It was a great opportunity for us to get to know each other better and grow closer as a team. The whole session was filled with laughter, positive energy, encouragement and what I would call a real “happy virus” spreading through the room. Everyone was cheering each other on and leaving with smiles. Through sharing with one another, we even had moments of heartfelt emotion and tears. It made the experience feel even more meaningful and genuine. We truly enjoyed spending this time together. Thank you Luis and Philip for bringing such uplifting energy to our workplace!

We hired Fundamentals of Play for a team offsite. We’re a fully remote team of 72 with tons of new team members and we wanted an activity that. Let people interact and connect with as many people as possible, while doing some skill building and having fun and wow did they deliver!! The facilitator Philip was awesome at getting everyone engaged and we’re a big rowdy group but he kept us moving focussed when we needed to be and having fun all along. I also loved the way as you were having funny, they also share the research to back up what we were doing and why it’s important. If you’re looking for a team activity that can get everyone engaged and have some fun while learning this is it!
