Music & Concert Testimonials

“Judy, I just had to tell you how heart-hitting and powerful your presentation was. It spoke to me. And, your music speaks to me as I write. For some unknown reason, three weeks ago, I started singing before I sat down to write. There were things you said that sent “knowing chills” up my spine. Thanks for confirming that I’m on the right road. I play your song, “Breathe into the Fire” from INSIDE OF ME each day before I begin writing.”
Dawn Holman, Author, Speaker, California

“Judy, you convey a fullness of beauty and insight with exceptional grace. We admire and appreciate profoundly, the noble work you are doing in harmonizing body, mind and soul.”

“Judy Armstrong’s recorded music is filled with inspiration, yet to feel even more of this woman’s loving energy expressed through sound, be sure to create the opportunity to attend one of her live performances.”

"Judy’s music inspires me to reach inside, search and find myself. The combination of words, music and voice achieve a listening thrill. The composition and performance is a musical feast that enriches the soul.”
Judy Richards, Past Manager, Coquitlam Centre, BC, Canada

“Judy, I sang “The Gift of Love” and “Miracles Are Natural Things” for Unity of the Valley yesterday and everybody loved them! What fun it was to sing your songs. Thanks again for publishing your Songbook with the MP3. It made it easy for me to practice and I felt prepared even though the pianist and I only had a short time to rehearse.”
Gael Chilson, Singer, Arizona

“From 1987 to 2000, I facilitated a weekly speaker breakfast meeting which focused on
spirituality, holistic health and personal growth. On many occasions over those years,
Judy graciously contributed her inspirational thoughts and powerful voice to the
proceedings. There were many aspects of Judy which were very inspiring to me. She
was always walking her talk and was able to illustrate her words with stories from her
own life. Judy was most definitely living her passion, and in living it, she became a living
inspiration to others. Her joyful demeanor and sense of humor invited us to relax and
open to the information she was sharing. It was impossible to not be in awe when the
power of her voice washed over us as she sang “Breathe into the Fire” from her
’INSIDE OF ME’ CD. Judy is a living, breathing example of the power of living your truth
and following your bliss.”
Susan Letourneau, Vision Therapy Facilitator, Calgary, AB, Canada

Lori Deane, Dancer, Counselor, Calgary, AB, Canada

“Judy, your presentation style is engaging and entertaining, while offering practical self-improvement tips. Staff who attended the presentation stated, “you learned valuable things and had fun at the same time: and “it was a reminder of many things and was good for personal growth”. ‘Granny’ was hilarious and the story of ‘The Three Bears’ told with the voice of ‘Donald Duck’ was fantastic. The workbook was a great visual aid and will provide an opportunity for review and reflection in the future. I would highly recommend you as a workshop leader and as an entertaining speaker."
Janice M. Blair, Vice President, Palliser Health Authority Community Health Services, AB, Canada

“Judy, thank you for the fabulous session that you presented at the CAPS BC meeting on Saturday. It was great to spend the afternoon in earnest, non-serious play. Being able to experience you presenting and instructing helped me to understand somewhat more how to be present in the moment. As you, with each and every breath, allowed time to unfold, the room was filled with the joy of being. Listening to you was akin to listening to my own heart. Thank you once again and I hope that our paths cross again."

“I would highly recommend Judy to a variety of audiences. After many years of working with volunteer organizations and attending numerous workshops, conferences, etc. I do not believe that I have ever encountered a speaker with as broad a repertoire of talents as Judy possesses - from singing to drama to professional quality workshop presentations. Judy moves her audience from deeply introspective to irreverent belly laughs within a span of minutes - and it works!!! Judy’s natural warmth and message of caring endears her to her audience. Guaranteed smiles!!”

She reminded us of the importance of taking time for ourselves, made us laugh until our sides hurt, then awed us with her incredible singing voice.

We were thrilled to have someone as professional and talented as Judy speak at our Women’s Getaway Conference.”
Ethel McLellan, Conference President, Ponoka, AB, Canada

Pat Leighty, Farm Women’s Network, Alberta, Canada

“Judy Armstrong was a featured speaker at our conference, “Chocolate Heaven: A Self-Care Conference”. I can say that Judy’s presentation was valued by members of the five communities represented. I am basing this testimonial on three factors: (1) The participant evaluation forms were very positive with flowing praise for Judy’s presentation, noting appreciation for her humor and her voice. (2) Our most effective communication system, the “Moccasin Telegraph” showed that Judy’s performance was being praised throughout the region. (3) Participant Observation: I watched the responses of the
conference participants who obviously were having a very good time. I would highly recommend Judy Armstrong as a presenter!”
Kelte Paule, Regional Health Promotion Coordinator, Northwestern Health Services Region
High Level, AB, Canada

“Judy, I really needed to hear your message. It was perfect timing for what’s happening in my life. And your “Granny” character was hilarious! Thanks for helping me to lighten up!”
