Since 2006 Leap Adventures has helped corporations, organizations, and schools transform their teams by transforming individuals. Simply put, we build and run terrific indoor and outdoor events and workshops. The Leap Adventures model bridges differences, helps people grow, and creates stronger, better-bonded communities.
1996 winner of the Royal Bank of Canada Young Entrepreneur Award for her Hugs for LIFE social enterprise, Jessie Steinberg has since gone from strength to strength over the last 20 years. She has a Bachelor of Environmental Science and a Bachelor of Education, with 15 years of classroom experience and a specialization in Outdoor Education. She spent a decade as a volunteer firefighter, and as a professional musician Jessie has toured North America with a passion for percussion.
As founder of Leap Adventures, for the last decade Jessie has been a trusted leader in the field of team development. Authenticity and straight-up skill-building are at the core of every workshop, conversation, and call. Tiny but mighty, we’ve lost count of how many times she’s been called a “firecracker”. She’s our beloved coach, leader, and mentor.
"Jessie Steinberg was fantastic! She was by far the best activity coordinator we have ever had and we've been doing this for 20 years. Thanks again!"

"We were very pleased with Drummunity and under Jessie’s guidance, the team “loosened up”, communicated and laughed together – all being one of the objectives of our day together!"
Karen Wozniak, Husky Canada
"We did the Team Combat Challenge - what you did was amazing. It was perfect."
Paul Gauntley, President, Canada & USA, Burlodge
"Jessie handled our entire Grade 6 cohort (about 220 kids). She really hooked them from the outset, so that by the time they were released into the woods they knew exactly what to do, and were very keen. She made it such a valuable experience because of the consummate professionalism of her approach and execution."
Catherine Coghlan from David Leeder Middle School, Peel District School Board
"Jess excels at what she does. No one brings more energy and enthusiasm to a team building event! She is highly skilled at getting participants to actively participate in the challenges she concocts. There is meaning and learning in the activities she chooses to facilitate - whether the goal is to have fun or learn to be a better team player - participants will never forget Jess and her approach!"
Valerie Tremblay, Prosci Canada
"Everyone enjoyed the Amazing race activity – we received so many positive comments on that – kudos to Jessie. She sure is a firecracker!!!"
