Our school assembly programs are primarily designed to motivate youth of all ages to reach their potential both inside and outside of the classroom. Our programs focus on inspiring students to see their potential and live for the future, not just for the moment.

Our athletes use their own personal stories of academic struggle to demonstrate to his/her audience that ‘you don’t have to be great to get started, you just have to get started to be great’ and that ‘readers really do become leaders.’ They use their academic success to show students that knowledge increases their opportunities to succeed. Students are left with the lasting thought that, ‘You can have more if you don’t settle for less.’

For high school audiences we touch on relationships. We challenge students to build their relationships on the front seat of respect, not the back seat of disgrace. We’ve found that because many students listen to wrong voices, they make wrong choices. Our speakers encourage each student to hang out with dream makers not dream breakers.

The attention of the students is captured by what we call the “WOW” factor. The athletes display their athletic skills coupled with exciting music create a thrilling atmosphere and a lasting impression. The students will witness basketball shows, feats of strength, ventriloquist, NFL footballs skills to martial arts, boxing and kick-boxing demonstrations.

The athletes' feats also serve as a visual aid to a powerful and relevant message. This program is filled with a great deal of humor, student interaction and volunteer participation. No student or adult will be able to sleep through these programs.

Note: Assemblies are formatted with age appropriate topics.
