Public speaking

Stories that move a room.

Schools invite our speakers to motivate students and share honest stories of growing up, dreaming big and giving back. Companies and community groups invite us for keynotes, lunch-and-learns and storytelling that connects a team to something bigger. We speak to audiences of all sizes, from a single classroom to a full auditorium.

Everything here runs by donation.

There is no set fee for a speaking visit, a dance session or a dance retreat. Hosts and guests give what they can, and every donation goes to Dreamers Wish Foundation's free programs: robotics, financial literacy and mentoring for refugee and immigrant youth in Utah, and classrooms in Ghana and Kenya. Inviting us is one way to support that work. And if your community cannot give right now, invite us anyway. We will find a way.
