Jenifer Joy: Performer, Educator, and Advocate for a Joyful Life I’m Jenifer Joy, a performer and educator with over a decade of experience inspiring audiences worldwide. My passion is blending yo-yo and magic tricks, plus the classical saxophone into my engaging keynote presentations! Through my talks, I explore the transformative power of joy and teach audiences how to cultivate and share it using my JOY framework: Joy, Openness, and You. Every week, I have the privilege of performing for thousands of students across multiple states and countries. I love seeing how my school assemblies leave a lasting impression, not just through the dazzling performances but through meaningful messages that resonate. Educators, parents, and event organizers often share how my ability to connect with children and adults alike creates an unforgettable experience. As someone who works primarily with children, I don’t always have the extensive footage that comes from performing for adults, but the enthusiastic feedback I receive speaks for itself. Whether it’s a heartfelt thank-you note from a student or a glowing recommendation from a teacher, I’m reminded daily of the positive impact my presentations have. Over the years, I’ve taught and performed in Thailand, England, China, New Zealand, and across the United States. I’ve always strived to connect with people of all backgrounds, using my performances to encourage audiences to embrace their unique gifts and talents to uplift themselves and others. Last December, I was thrilled to be speaking in Toronto for the Thought Leader Talks, where I used my classical saxophone to explore the topic of Joy and its role in creating lasting fulfillment. It was an exciting opportunity to share my insights with a broader audience in a dynamic, thought-provoking setting. I laugh because I’m now touring as a professional yo-yoist, throwing tricks for audiences 200-600+. I began learning the saxophone at age 8, and in recent years, I discovered the joy of learning the yo-yo at age 41. Along the way, I’ve created shows and programs that integrate my unique blend of skills. I’ve also released a music album, written a book on cultivating joy, and produced a magazine, all aimed at sharing knowledge and joy to inspire and uplift others. With a Master’s degree and years of global experience performing and teaching, I’ve dedicated my career to empowering people to embrace their unique gifts and talents. My goal is to help others serve and uplift themselves and their communities, all while experiencing the transformative power of joy. If you’re looking for an experienced, energetic, and heartfelt speaker to inspire joy, curiosity, and personal growth, I’d love to bring my unique blend of entertainment and education to your event.

Larry & Cecily Lancit are not only partners in marriage, life, and the television industry, they are also the dynamic duo who co-created and produced the PBS series Reading Rainbow, an EMMY AWARD winning American educational children's television series that encouraged children to check out books from their local library and read. Reading Rainbow originally aired on PBS and afterwards on PBS Kids and PBS Kids Go! from July 11, 1983 to Nov. 10, 2006, with reruns continuing to air until Aug. 28, 2009. During this time, it was the most used program in American elementary schools. In its 21-seasons, Reading Rainbow won 16 National Daytime Emmy Awards, including seven Emmys for Best Children’s Series. Anyone not familiar with Reading Rainbow just needs to watch one episode of the popular children’s television show to understand the impact it had on libraries and their surrounding communities. Nowadays, the husband and wife team operate Paradise Coast TV, an independent television production company based in Naples, Florida and the Paradise Coast TV Visitor Channel. They have recently completed a documentary, Blues on Beale, highlighting the 36th Annual International Blues Competition in Memphis, and they are now moving their focus to work to support mental health and recovery institutions, pulling back the curtain to help resolve stigma from drug addiction and mental/emotional disorders. Both Larry and Cecily are also lead personalities in the feature documentary, Butterfly in the Sky, a chronicle of the history and impact of Reading Rainbow over its 23-year presence on PBS. The documentary recently premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York.
