letter to the directors

Dear Director/ Teacher/ Parents
Here is a great idea for a new program at your school THE JOY HOUSE Assembly and/ or Pre and After School Program. Created by Angelina Joy Emanuele, it is designed for children of ALL ages. Miss Joy, is an Australian who has been awarded many certificates from The City of Los Angeles and organizations from around the world for her work with children and the community. All assemblies and classes at this point in time are performed and taught by JOY, who has been working as a professional dancer, choreographer, singer, songwriter and producer since 1983. She is now devoting all her time, energy, music, artistry, creativity and gift for communicating and teaching others, to children. The kids adore her; she inspires and has an ability to motivate all.

Recently, Miss Joy, was nominated as 2007's National Finalist for "Leader's in Learning" and "Cable in the Classroom" for "Artistic and General Excellence" sponsored by The Library of Congress in Washington DC and Time Warner for her inovative teachings and The Joy House TV Show for kids .The Joy House was also sponsord by LAPD's Hollywood PAL (Police Activities League of Hollywood) for 4 years and THE JOY HOUSE TV Show aired for three years every Saturday Morning on LA Channel 36, The Creative Learning Channel, sponsored by Mayor Riordan.

The program introduces children to dance, music, gymnastics, singing, songwriting and designing….
· Builds positive self-esteem and confidence
· Promotes excercise and fitness
· Teaches discipline, coordination, flexibility, stamina, strength, rhythm & memory
· Teaches dance technique and terminology
· Taps into children's creativity. Teaching kids to sing and songwrite

She has an ability to bring out the artist in EVERYONE, giving children the tools that may spark an interest or the confidence to express themselves their own way. In her classes and shows she only uses original, positive, uplifting JOY HOUSE DANCE MUSIC (that she has written and recorded), subliminally planting only good thoughts. Kid'. teacher's and parent's love the music!
(Many say it is all they listen to. Each song has a choreographed routine that the kids learn and then they practice at home with their JOY HOUSE music and follow along videos that parents can purchase).

"JOY HOUSE" ASSEMBLIES and or LIVE SHOWS are geared more towards THE JOY HOUSE DANCE PARTY and or The Joy House Interactive LIVE show.

Miss Joy ALWAYS promotes FITNESS, EXERCISE and shows children how to STRETCH EVERYDAY She recently just wrote a song "Just Do It!" with a fitness workout and stretch routine EVERYONE can do!
The importance of eating right and diet is very important too. She also wrote a song called "Joy Food, Food that is good for you. Joy Food, Food that is healthy" "JOY FOOD" also has an easy dance routine that the kids pick up…

She also gets the ALL teachers and parents up to dance and the children have to choose the BEST dancer.

She plays some interactive/ singing /dancing games with the kids. This all depends on the ages and size of audience.

She taps into children's creativity…"Use your imagination, create a NEW creation"
Teaching kids to choreograph their own dances, make up their own songs, draw their on fashions, costumes and sets for The Joy House TV Show

By teaching through such a unique, fun and creative way it seems the children really respond to what she has to say about discipline, manners, the importance of listening to parents and teachers and people who love them, what kids should do everyday (Their list of things to do) plus she gives them ideas and ways to keep themselves busy and creative so they don't get bored. This is what The Joy House is basically about. Practice makes perfect!
She has an ability to bring out the artist in EVERYONE, giving children the tools that may spark an interest or the confidence to express themselves their own way. So they can learn to build their own Joy House and find their JOY!
"Do what you love and love what you do" … The secret to inner happiness and joy!

THE JOY HOUSE BIRTHDAY PARTY that has become a big hit for kids parties (for 2 - 12 years).

She was featured on KLCS' "In Focus", performed for SEAP (School Education Activities Program) at elementary and high schools to great audience reactions and has written articles for LA Family Magazine & Creative Child Magazine.

THE JOY HOUSE is available for ALL children if not through school programs via the Web as well as The Joy House TV Show for kids. Keep in touch via the web site

RATES

THE JOY HOUSE AFTERSCHOOL and PRE SCHOOL PROGRAM
Another idea is to have a weekly class that the school/club/PTA can pay directly as to allow all the children to participate weekly $150.00 for a one hour class for unlimited kids, (Miss Joy can teach up to 100 kids at a time) and this rate applies to schools in the Los Angeles area (it includes Joy's driving time to and from the school). Schools outside the LA area for unlimited kids is $250 per class. The kids go crazy!

Another way is that parents can pay directly $10 - $12 per child per class. (Pre paid in full in sessions 8 to 12 weeks) A minimum of 10 students must sign up. It usually takes a few weeks to build but the class is usually very popular). Joy does one free class for the whole school to introduce everyone to THE JOY HOUSE. It's sure to be a hit!
NOTE All children of parents in NEED and are SERIOUS get to do The Joy House for FREE!

THE JOY HOUSE DANCE PARTY/ BIRTHDAY PARTY and CORPORATE SHOWS
Please note the Joy House Birthday / Dance Parties rate is $500 for 2 hours, $450 for 1 1/2 hours and $400 for
a 1 hour party. RECESSION SPECIAL $100 0ff all parties!

THE JOY HOUSE ASSEMBLY
A one off INTERACTIVE workshop/ show/ assembly in the school for UNLIMITED children or the ENTIRE school is $600 - $1000. Depending on the size of the school it can be divided into 2 or 3 45 minute shows. Please contact Miss Joy and she can put you in contact with STAR ASSEMBLIES.
