Weekly Joy Calls are 30 minutes—packed with laughter, tips and techniques in the multi-award winning Joyworks Method . They are short, focused sessions designed to uplift and energise and will be holistically themed. You’ll leave feeling good about yourself and the world and regularly armed with new ways to allow more joy in.

Where are the sessions held?
All sessions take place online via Zoom, accessible from anywhere and they are recorded so you can visit at any time.
What if I’m introverted or feel shy?
This space is warm, inclusive, and non-judgmental. You’re so welcome to participate in whatever way feels best for you! However it’s not for you if you aren’t open minded and willing to play. For best experience for everyone attending it’s best if camera is on.
We always love to see everyone on screen as the sessions are highly interactive. However we know that’s not always practical and sometimes takes time until your confidence grows- which we promise it will!
What kind of support is offered between sessions?
You’ll be invited to a private Facebook group for ongoing encouragement, inspiration, and connection.
Whether you’re stepping into a new chapter, recovering from illness or heartache, or just want to have more fun your life—The Joy Academy is here to lift you up, wrap you in laughter, and remind you just how good it feels to be truly YOU.
You don’t need to have it all together. You just need a curious heart and a willingness to say yes to joy, connection, and a bit of creativity and playfulness
This isn’t just another membership—it’s been a movement since spearheading the laughter therapy movement in Scotland in 2008. But Joyworks is now multi-award winning and has evolved greatly since then with our offerings and international clients!
One of the most common things we hear is ‘It’s so much more than Laughter Therapy!’
You know what? It always was and we completely agree!
It’s a gathering of heart-led special people showing up for themselves and for each other. And if your heart is saying, “This is right up my street”—then you already belong here.
✨ There’s still time to grab a half price joy spot at £25 until Sunday 18th may at midnight.
Let your next chapter begin with laughter, wellness, fun, creativity with neuroscience backed tools and techniques for happier days within the power of joyful community!
A community who allow you to be exactly as you are!
For we are where we are and that HAS to be ok then we’ll move up the joy scale together.
Right?
