“Mighty Mike” Simmel has been on a roller coaster ride in life and he will take you and your audience on a journey through the ups and downs of living his dreams despite his many obstacles of being an adult having and thriving through a disability.  Your audience will be amazed when they learn that Mike is a person living with epilepsy.  They will learn that “being different is being great”.   As a young child, they will also learn that Mike could not skip or hop on one leg, had to wear a helmet and was debilitated to special-ed gym class. Now he performs dazzling multi-basketball handling tricks that made him a successful player on the circuit for the Harlem Wizards basketball team for 13 years and at many high profile events! The Mighty Mike message is that “everyone has an inner talent and we must find that talent, maximize it to its fullest potential and make a positive impact on the world.” Mike’s message will show how to lead and persevere through adversity. He will show each and every child how to reach their dreams and overcome adversity in their individual everyday lives!  He has taken the “dis” out of disability and made it into an “ability” to help others in life with his Bounce Out the Stigma Project…Each child will learn how they too can have the “ability” deep down and become a better leader, overcome adversity, and find the heart of a champion.

The program will condense an interactive basketball show with the themes of goal setting, anti-bullying, confidence building, healthy living and disability awareness. They will also believe that self-belief and determination can turn debilitating effects of failure into success. The lessons will show each child that no matter what adversity they may face they can use that as a positive outlet and reach toward a better tomorrow.
