and team. I can whole-heartedly recommend Rene.”  Jacques Marcotte, Artistic Coordina- 
tor, Cirque du Soleil Special Events.


“What people need to know about Rene is she is morethan an entertainer - she’s a teacher and a motivator.  She’s engaging, she’s exciting, and she’s an incredible athlete.  But most importantly, she’s sending a great message about fitness and determination.”  Patti Tibaldi, 
National and State Coaching Halls of Fame & Coordinator for the largest federal fitness 
grant in the State of Michigan.  Patti has hosted Rene at 20+ events on 3 separate visits

Rene's show!”  - Chad Folkestad, Minnesota Lynx.

solid WNBA halftime show to offer and I think people in my line of work will really enjoy 
working with her.”  Mike Chant, NY Liberty & Knicks. 
 
“Rene warmed the hearts of the crowd.  She received a standing ovation and ESPN ran 30 
seconds of her performance during their game of the week, which is practically unheard of.  
We’ll definitely have her back.”  Mark Hollis, Associate Athletic Director, Michigan State 
University. 




 



Program Descriptions and Booking Information:

Your organization can work with Rene to determine the best program for your event, or choose from one of our popular corporate programs:





 
	High-energy entertainment/ice-breaker:  Rene performs a 3-4 minute solo act to music.  As a five-time world champion, world record holder for speed jumping, artist/coach with the renowned Cirque du Soleil, and ESPN color commentator, truly, no one knows the rope like Rene.  Her routine is easily expanded with fun audience participation, again set to music, concluding with another brief solo that will bring any crowd to its feet.  The time of this act can be tailored to company’s needs – from the 3-4 minute solo up to a 10-12 minute solo/interactive act.  $750

	A powerful, high-energy, and memorable 20 to 30-minute presentation about team building.  Rene's performance skills open things, not only to entertain, but to draw conference goers into the moment; Rene works with audience volunteers and uses the rope as a living metaphor to convey a series of points that are insightful about human nature and teamwork; the physical/mental challenges of breaking skills down into tasks that can be completed are fun and revealing; some true teamwork assignments with the rope force issues of risk taking, trust, communications, and decision making within working relationships; the payoff is always successful if teamwork results; the context is unique, hands-on and good natured...to the point of being great humor at times.  The session moves very quickly.  We believe it would be powerful in its brevity and the type of session that gets the energy level back up after a lull. $1500
 
	Performance combined with articulate “themed” presentation: Rene has often been given the daunting responsibility of asking established “stars” to re-deploy their talents in new ways.  Not only does she contend with the issue of massively talented people being challenged in new ways, but she also grappled with diversity issues.  Samuel Johnson said, “We more often need to be reminded than instructed.”  When dealing with top talent, chief management must find unique tools to remind and reinvigorate people about their missions. High-energy performances begin and end this truly unique presentation. $1500
 

	Executive Fitness Seminar:  If we lose our health, we have nothing.  Hurried executives need proven fitness tools that are portable, efficient, effective and low impact.  When taught properly, rope jumping is as low impact as walking.  Yet nothing matches this old school training tool in terms of a total body workout.  And when Rene adds her new school twists with articulate instruction, it suddenly becomes easy and fun.  Even a jogger needs a running course or a big piece of gear such as a treadmill.  But with rope jumping, all a person needs is a $5 rope that can be packed into a pair of workout shoes.  The rope can be used virtually anywhere – an office, living room, hotel room, patio, deck, pool area…all that’s needed is 18 inches of clearance over a person’s head and a few feet of open space to the sides, front and back.  In a 45-minute workshop, Rene teaches the basics and provides a progression plan.  This can become a favored tool for fitness and stress reduction.  If planned activity options such as golf, boating, etc. are a part of the offering during this conference/meeting, then Rene’s Fitness Seminar certainly could be an innovative highlight. $500
