Evan's Magician Camp
Emotional Release & Clearing Workshops
About Evan's Magician Camp
This course is based upon the work of Greg Ehmka. His courses have been called a number of things over the years, but currently go either by the name "Joyful Empowerment" or simply, "Greg's Course." This is a form of work that combines intention, abundance manifestation, and emotional release and clearing in a powerful way. While Evan's Magician Camp is based on Greg's work, it is not identical. I'll be adding my own flavor and ideas to it, and it will evolve over time, just as Greg's courses have evolved over time.
Because my course will differ from Greg's a little bit, I've chosen not to adopt the "Joyful Empowerment" name. Instead, I'm embracing the name Evan's Magician Camp for many reasons. One thing I often say about this form of empowerment work is that what I intend often appears in my life as if by magic. For me, many things that I once thought "that's impossible" have come to fruition so effortlessly that they've literally been delivered right to me with no action on my part other than the intentions I'm working on. This work literally feels like magic to me quite often.
I have always connected with magic. I'm not talking about parlor tricks and illusions, though those can be fun too. I'm talking about real magic; the ability to create something out of nothing, or to do things that seem supernatural. For many years, I've felt a sort of magician persona within myself, and have used the name "Magus" (Latin for "magician") as an online persona.
Additionally, the initials of this camp are EMC, which relates to Einstein's physics equation, e=mc2. I find this an appropriate metaphor for how this work functions. Energy and matter are linked. In this work, emotional energy is released, cleared, moved or transformed, and this causes things to manifest in the 4D world. Or, put another way, when the energy of intention, emotion, thought and action become aligned upon a single purpose, that intention becomes a reality. Of course, some intentions are for non-material things, yet the equation still seems to apply.
The basic ideas and techniques taught in these courses have also been known by the names "The Law of Attraction," or as "Abundance Manifestation."
I also offer private emotional release sessions.
What is the Purpose of This Work?
The purpose is to be empowered in all areas of your life. This isn’t about “power over” or some type of control or dominance. It is more about “power between” or “power among;” the ability to manifest your desires through emotional release, and to enhance that ability with not only your own energy, but the energy of others.
Power is getting what you want.
You use your power all the time, and those with more of it get more of what they
want, while those with less of it get less of what they want. Of course, you can
also give your power to what you don’t want, and this is how people often
end up with exactly the opposite of what they want…they put all their energies
into what they don’t want…and then universe gives them precisely what they put
their energies into. This is often called the Law of Attraction.
Joy is being in the right place, at the right time, doing the
right thing with the right people. Of course, one must recognize that sometimes "the right people" means all alone.
Thus, the purpose of this work is for you to be able to set and empower
intentions for what you want, and to release those emotions
which block you from manifesting your intentions, such that you find yourself in the right place, at
the right time, doing the right thing with the right people, and getting what
you want.
How Does Emotional Release Work?
This one is kind of strange to deal with in text form. The process is simple, but doing the emotional release process is not “easy.” So, here are the components to the work, as best as I can describe them. Really, they kind of have to be experienced, and no words can really communicate fully how it works, or how all the parts synergize to create something even more powerful. In the simplest terms, it begins with the question, "what do you want." Next, the question is posed, "what is present for you now." Finally, emotions, pictures, thoughts and anything else are expressed until all that is left is a feeling of joy and power.
The Courses
Components of The Courses
Latihan: For me, this seems kind of like contact improv dance. Essentially, it begins by standing, sitting or lying down, completely still. Music is played, and as it plays, the participants connect to inner guidance, and wait for the “involuntary impulse for movement.” Inner guidance guides all the movement. In some Latihan exercises there is contact with others; in most there is not. Emotional release in Latihan is achieved by the power of inner guidance and movement. The Anger Dance is a latihan geared specifically to the expression of anger. The Fear Dance is a latihan geared specifically to the expression of fear.
Bodyhan: This is a partner exercise where one person states an intention and begins to feel and process emotions and thoughts, while the other helps hold the intention, and provides inner guidance. Emotional release in Bodyhan is achieved by the power of the inner guidance of two people working together.
Tantrahan: This can be a partner or solo exercise, and the intention for each participant is to share sexual energy, clear any emotions that become present, and to follow inner guidance throughout.
Receiveehan: This is an exercise to work on the problem of the inability of women to give their sexual energy to men and the even worse inability of men to receive the sexual energy of women. Women's inability in this area generally stems from anger. Men's inability in this area generally stems from fear. Regardless of the emotional content, the Receiveehan is designed to help clear these emotions by pushing their buttons in a big way.
Giveehan: This exercise provides the participants with an experience of authentic giving. This is included at all workshop levels at the end of each workshop.
Supplemental Exercises: These include, at present, three hypnotic sessions done in a group setting. One of the biggest problems in the world, according to Greg, is "the appalling lack of self-love present in the otherwise beautiful and amazing people on this planet." These hypnotic exercises are all geared to empowering your sense of self-love, thus giving you more power and joy in your life.
The first I call "Transforming Your Inner Critic," and it deals with transforming the way you hear the critical voice in your head into something that is more difficult to take so seriously. If you're saying to yourself, "what voice?" then that's the voice I mean.
The second I call "Transforming Your Inner Self-Picture," and it deals with transforming the way you picture yourself in your mind into a picture that empowers you.
The third I call, "Transforming Your Inner World," and it deals with transforming the way you picture the world, or society, or culture as-a-whole into a picture that feels like an empowered world in which you wish to participate at your highest level of performance.
Courses Available
While Greg teaches his course as a single 10-day event totaling about 70-80 hours of workshop time, I have chosen to divide the course into sections and offer each section independently. I may offer a 10-day version in the future, but for now I am offering it in the format below.

In order to experience the higher level workshops, a student must first complete the levels preceding that level, or complete equivalent work with a qualified person.

Last summer, I had my first opportunity to be in an emotional release & clearing workshop with Evan as the facilitator. It was amazing what people quickly worked through. Later, when some painful issues came up for me, I had the opportunity to work with Evan one on one. The process Evan lead me through, quickly moved me past much of my "stuff" that I was dealing with at the time. It ended with a smile and a hug.
Evan is intuitive, compassionate, insightful and effective. He is a true professional who provides a comfortable and safe space for this process to unfold. I would recommend Evan and Joyful Empowerment to anyone who wants to move forward fast. Evan is amazing!

I met you at Burning Man, and wanted to let you know how grateful I am that I got to work with you. I have done many workshops, and what impressed me about yours was how quick the transformation happened for me. I felt very safe and supported and was able to work though my issue with trust. I felt my belief shift and I was able to walk away with a new perspective. Thank you for putting yourself out there and helping. We need it.
Jenny
Thank you so much for leading the Joyful Empowerment workshop at Burning Man this year. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to take part in your class. You were extremely patient and generous as I worked through my emotions in front of the group. Letting go of old emotions that were in the way inspired me to have "a career that I love that will change the world." When I got home from Burning Man I was moved to quit my job waiting tables and take on Massage Therapy full time. I knew it was time to take my foot out of the door and let go so I could be open to something else that comes my way. I would love to participate more in this work as I just got a glimpse of what's possible. Thanks again for being such a stand for people to have a life they love without anything in the way.
Keep up the great work Evan!
