Gerry's going back to school!
With 2 new primary school presentations entitled "Do Respect" and "Wellness".
"Do Respect" is a highly interactive show that presents respect in a whole new way. It starts with self-respect, etiquette, "magic" words, respecting animals and ends with a powerhouse song "Power UP and Power DOWN" to get kids thinking about ways to help their environment. This is a proactive presentation designed around the fact that if children are shown and given respect, they will in turn make respectful choices with their words and actions. They soon realize that good manners and proper etiquette are the fastest and easist ways to give and receive respect.
"Do Respect" is a positive first step in lessening the need for antibullying strategies. The more children are respectful of themselves, others and their surroundings, the less time and effort needs to be spent on the consequences of not having made respectful choices.
Check out the great reviews on the "Past Shows" and "My Shows" pages.
His BRAND NEW multifaceted show for 2009 "Wellness" will challenge your children's perspective of fitness to include wellness of body, mind and heart. They'll have to listen with their hearts and think way outside the box. It's a great mix of singing, dancing and mind bending fun! "When children think of wellness they often think of fitness or eating right. I want to expand their perception of wellness".
Of course, Gerry has also entertained thousands of children at fairs and festivals and invoked the simple message of "Sing Every Day", the title of his debut CD.
