Teen Leadership Workshop – Fall 2025 (Ages 13–18)

What is S.M.I.L.E.

S.M.I.L.E. stands for Self-Confidence, Motivation, Improv, Listening, and Expression, five essential skills teens will build across four dynamic workshop sessions.

This leadership series is designed for teens ages 13–18 who want to become stronger communicators, creative problem-solvers, confident presenters, and better listeners both in front of the classroom and in life.

Each session is 3 hours long, featuring hands-on activities, leadership-focused improv games, and science-based exercises that are both fun and transformative. Best of all, we follow up with a one-on-one Zoom call 3–4 months later to support continued leadership growth.
