"I attended a Yoga Laughter Session at Akasha Yoga in January [2011]. Not knowing what to expect, I thought it was best to have an open mind. At first my laughter was forced, but quickly became natural. The Yoga room was filled with laughter, smiles and sparkling eyes. It felt great to have a decent belly laugh. I left the session feeling good, and each day after my mood improved. About two weeks later, I realized that I felt better than I had in the last three years. I felt happy and a little carefree, but most of all I felt like myself again."

Smart, articulate and flat out funny! Julie has the ability to take what's going on in life and throw a comedic spin on it that not only makes you laugh....but also makes you think.

"We thoroughly enjoyed having Julie at our annual APW [Administrative Professionals Week] event this past March. Administrative Professionals can be a pretty serious group of people, especially with the current economic business climate, so it was great to have a stress release with laughter - and lots of it. I received comments from some of the attendees that they found themselves 'laughing' during the drive home!"

“I went to a lunch presentation where Julie gave a humorous speech about laughter yoga. I've heard a lot of great humor speeches, but Julie's was the best I've ever heard. The entire audience had tears rolling down their cheeks. (Me too!) Julie is an interesting person with a proven background in public speaking, having been a past Area Governor in the Toastmasters organization. I highly recommend her if you would like to sponsor a humorous presentation. Great!”

“I've had the pleasure of hearing Julie speak. She is great at what she does. It takes a lot of work to do what she does, but she seems to do it so effortlessly. I truly believe that she has a deep passion for her profession and has a lot to offer those who retain her services. If you ever get an opportunity to hear Julie speak, take advantage of it. She has the gift of humor.”

As a member of OMNI Youth Services’ Development Department, I was a part of OMNI’s Volunteer Recognition dinner in January. Quite often these are rather dull affairs with speeches by our staff and sometimes a volunteer. Imagine my surprise when this year the speeches were funny, interesting and heartwarming. This is mostly due to the delightful speech by Julie Ostrow.
Her speech was both entertaining and uplifting. She conveyed the impact OMNI’s Youth Mentoring Program had on her and the impact on the youth she mentored. Her speech was comical, yet very moving and heartfelt.
It was a pleasure to listen to Julie this year and it has been a pleasure to have her as an OMNI volunteer. She is one of the few people to be able to verbalize how important OMNI’s programs are without boring the audience. I highly recommend Julie for any speaking engagement.
