Written By Kevin Nichols

Playformance offers a one of a kind Team Building Experience for teams of all kinds. Unify your sports team, workplace team, school group, Leadership Team, and more through the transforming power of play. Inspire growth and see your teammates and leaders in a new light through a fun fully customized experience facilitated by an experienced trainer. Your team will have fun and work together to overcome challenges and obstacles which can be tailored to address any issues within your organization. Through this fun and energizing playshop, we will help promote innovation and connection which in turn makes working together more enjoyable and productive. Playing together promotes a sense of community within your organization so you become a strong team with healthy and productive communication skills.

Potential outcomes from this workshop:

  • A greater sense of understanding and connection between your staff, as they will now know how others play, and in turn, how they best work.

  • A willingness to tackle problems from a play perspective, embracing failure as part of the process of finding the solution.

  • A rejuvenated staff who rediscovers what they find fun about their job and their organization.

What folks say about us

Yesterday was incredible! The discussions in the afternoon were amazing - teachers reflected on what they learned about themselves, how that affects them in the classroom, and how they can use that to be better leaders and educators.

I hope that our gifted retreat can get to that place.

I really liked the activities and the order of them. I think making folks comfortable, slowly moving them into a little discomfort and then allowing all to fail and grow from that was perfect.

The coaches are "the funniest people on the planet" and everything was so much fun.

We have been taking our class to Playformance for field trips for the last three years and love it every time. We always go at the beginning and end of the school year, my co-teacher and I also use many of their play philosophies in our class throughout the school year. We love to go at the beginning of the year because it gives students an opportunity to learn new concepts and team build in a safe space. They learn the healthy play rules and to take care of each other first which is a concept we come back all year long. I love seeing them take risks and work together in a way they normally would not have the chance to. They also learn that conflict resolution skills and that it is possible to work things out without fighting, which for first through third graders is not always easy. The coaches are amazing and are great at being patient when helping the kids learn new games. We plan to come back as often as we can!

We make sure a field trip to Playformance is one of the first things we put on our calendar. This year was our 6th year retuning. We have never been disappointed with our visits. The staff / coaches are fun, supportive, creative, and kind. The kids are engaged in teamwork and cooperative play throughout their stay. The students, teachers, and parents look forward to this trip all school year. Can’t say enough good things about PLYFORMANCE.

We absolutely LOVE taking our students to Playformance. Students engage in games and team building activities that require integrity, respectful/safe play, listening, following directions, and provide opportunities for student autonomy while having FUN!! Playformance instructors model growth mindset and respectful ways to play so that the kids find immediate success in whatever activity/game they engage in. Playformance is a wonderful place to help kids overcome fears, strengthen friendships, and develop good sportsmanship. It’s our favorite field trip of the year!

Kindergarten Teacher

“Playformance was an awesome field trip for our 7th graders. Number one: the entire experience was FUN! Even though it was "non-academic" it checked several boxes for yearlong goals we have including but not exclusively: teamwork and perseverance. The coaches put our students in situations where they had to think on their feet and collaborate to solve problems. This can paralyze some 12 year olds but when it is based in PLAY the kids were comfortable getting out of their comfort zone and into their learning zone. We saw better communication and some new friendships when we got back to school too. We will be going back next year!”

“Kevin led my students through an incredible 2 hours of team building, problem solving and personal growth. Skills that transcend not only into the classroom, but throughout their lives. They still talk about being in their growth zone vs comfort or panic zones in class. I plan on incorporating Playformance into all my classes!”


–Chris / Teacher from Vail High School

Alan enjoyed camp last week. The staff was understanding of his needs and more friendly than any other camp he has attended. His twin brother Macy is looking forward to Camp at the end of the summer.
