Motivational Speaker in Inman, SC

"Our Welcome Back Convocation is how we launch each new school year. Over 1100 faculty and staff gather to get motivated to welcome back our students, celebrate achievements, and fellowship with each other. Larry Weaver helped make our August convocation become one of the most memorable in the 31 years we have held the event! After an exhaustive, months long search, our leadership team decided to invite Larry to be a presenter at our gathering; he didn’t disappoint. Larry was easy to work with and responsive to communication, and his performance on stage was wonderful. It was packed with audience-appropriate comedy that kept us laughing! Our team loved Larry’s jokes that tied in perfectly with his message of positivity."

"Arthur adapted his presentation to be virtual since we were not able to have him physically here due to the pandemic. He was wonderful! We met multiple times in advance to ensure things would go smoothly and he could deliver a show that was authentic to our event! Students and staff alike gave positive feedback and really enjoyed his present. In a time that has been so disheartening, Arthur's presentation sparked a sense of wonder that was deeply healing."

Teacher Assistant, Johnson Primary School

Magician in Fort Worth, TX

"Lyndy was a real hit with our audience. He took our conference theme and knowledge of our audience and provided a quality evening of entertainment. Present were 21 student scholarship winners, their families, school board members and educators. Lyndy was great! He had the audience laughing until they cried with his mix of humor and magic tricks. In addition, his presentation carried a message regarding stress reduction that was right on target for all of us. His humor was very appropriate for the audience. People were commenting the next day about how much they laughed and how much they enjoyed the evening."

"I have had many teachers come to me saying that Lyndy was the best first day speaker they had ever heard. I agree. He was funny, entertaining, and interesting. Getting teachers to say they like something is very difficult, so he certainly deserves a pat on the back and a bravo!! I would love to him return next year."
