GET RESULTS
I can’t recall an assembly that was more well received on such a relevant topic to the lives of young people in my 29 years in public education. …The results of evaluations that our students completed following this assembly were overwhelming in evoking pledges of positive behavioral change. I think this was a “wake up call.” ~Michael J. Droll, Tipton High School (IA)

Become THE SOURCE for your local schools!!

Presenting on sexual issues to middle school and high school students requires a highly trained professional because students are going to challenge you. You will have students in the audience who enjoy being a Heckler. The Heckler has one goal – to “mess you up.” If you lose your cool or lose control of the room, the presentation will fail. You must know the keys to effectively interacting with middle school through high school age students.



For schools to give you valuable class time, they will insist that you use an established program which is truly life-changing, content rich, engaging, and SAFE for their students. Throughout North America over the past two decades, the one solution *continually praised by educators and administrators is the “Can I Kiss You?” Show because each aspect of the program brings PROVEN RESULTS!*

For the first time ever, you have the opportunity to become certified to present the “Can I Kiss You?” program in your local middle schools and high schools. Participate in this fully comprehensive three-day “K12 Certification Training” from February 21st to 23rd in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with internationally renowned educator and author, Mike Domitrz. During these 3 days with Mike, you will get the most powerful techniques for engaging students in middle schools and high schools. PLUS, you will become certified to present the “Can I Kiss You?” Show in your local schools!

In 3 jam-packed days, you will receive all the following:

WORKBOOK AND MANUAL. Follow along with Mike throughout the 3 days in this in-depth Workbook and Manual filled with great strategies and insights for presenting the “Can I Kiss You?” Show.
DETAILED SCRIPT of the “Can I Kiss You?” program. You will be one of the first people to ever receive the official script for the critically acclaimed presentation. You will have every word needed to bring this dynamic and powerful program to your community.

THE POWER YOU’LL BE GIVING STUDENTS:
“I wanted to let you know how much that presentation has changed my life. I brought my boyfriend with me to your presentation and it has brought a change in him I can barely recognize. I knew that he loved me, but now he shows it by respecting me. I just wanted to say thank you and what you are doing is amazing.” – Student in WI

CLASSROOM vs. ASSEMBLY SPEAKING. Discover the techniques professional speakers utilize to create a powerful impact with ALL audiences. Sharing with an individual classroom is very different than speaking to 500 or 1,000 students in a general assembly. Thus, you must know the formula for being a successful speaker with audiences of ALL SIZES.

Over 700 students learning AND having fun.
The speaking and improv skills you will obtain during this workshop will stick with you for life – including when Mike Domitrz reveals how to use the “Call-Back” Strategy to get students to take an in-depth look at their own decision-making. To see and hear an entire school unite for positive change is an incredible accomplishment you will love being a part of!
APPROPRIATE AND HILARIOUS HUMOR . When discussing what is often an uncomfortable subject for many students, integrating effective humor into your speech is a necessity. Like adults, students learn FASTER while laughing. Once students are having fun, their mental and emotional barriers are broken down. Now, their minds are open to new ways of thinking.

Telling a joke or “being funny” is very different than utilizing humor with an educational goal as the focus. Even people who think they are naturally funny will often FAIL with student audiences. The good news for you is the script is already written with lots of humor included. At the LIVE training, Mike will reveal how to bring the humor in the script to LIFE. Get ready to HAVE FUN!

Wait. Are you someone who doesn’t think you are funny? By learning the techniques Mike is going to share with you, YOU WILL GET LAUGHS. In fact, Mike has frequently found the people who “think” they are not funny are often the best presenters for getting students to laugh.

“I like the way you use humor to soften the mood of what could be an uncomfortable subject.” Student

ABSTINENCE vs. COMPREHENSIVE SEX ED: Do your local schools teach “Abstinence Only” or “Comprehensive Sex Ed,” or do you have both approaches being taught in your region? Good News! The “Can I Kiss You?” program works with all school approaches to sexual education. Too many organizations use programming schools consider to be controversial. If you can’t get into the school, making an impact is nearly impossible.

“Can I Kiss You?” has been successful in Catholic middle schools; high schools where condoms are handed out to students; rural communities, inner cities, and some of the country’s most elite boarding schools on the East Coast. You will be getting certified for a program schools consider to be SAFE. Best of all, you will be helping create positive change in the lives of students.

“Your language and examples were right on target for our age group. They were riveted in their seats”
- Yvonne McGilvary, Teacher at St. Charles School Burlington (WI)”

During the K12 Certification Training, Mike will provide you with specific language to use based on your local school’s approach to sexual education. If you’ve run into conflict with local schools in the past, bring the comments administrators have stated to you and Mike will provide you with potential solutions.
HANDLING THE HECKLER: Veteran speakers turn to Mike Domitrz for this one-of-a-kind approach he has successfully used throughout the years. Mike will quickly show you how to turn hecklers into fans with his proven, non-threatening approach for overcoming those “challenging” moments. You will have a blast experimenting with this technique throughout the 3-day training.

“You presented such important issues in such a non-threatening manner. We will definitely be asking you to return to our campus. Thank you again for this presentation. You are really on track by connecting with the audience. I will be in touch with you again, that’s for sure!”
- Suzanne Sarner, Counselor, Sussex County Technical High School (NJ)
INVALUABLE EXPERIENCE – LIVE. You will have the option to present pieces from the script to a small group of peers during the 3-Day Training. Several attendees will get the chance to present to the entire group and receive personal feedback from Mike Domitrz.
The GUIDE SCHOOLS LOVE: Do you love when someone provides you a resource that makes your life EASIER? The Event Details Guide is that exact resource for the schools you are going to work with (whether it’s one person or a committee). The Event Details Guide is a 32-page in-depth packet with all the tiny bits of detail middle schools and high schools demand, including but not limited to:
Layouts for how to setup the room for the presentation;

Receiving prewritten letters to send to parents;

Sample Press Releases for local media;

How to build community support for this life changing program; and

MUCH MUCH MORE…
Every time the packet is updated throughout the year, you will receive the newest version from The Date Safe Project.
NIGHT OF GIVING & RECEIVING. On this special evening during the 3-Day Training, you will learn everyone’s best ideas and “Aha” Moments (“Best Practices” that attendees are currently using as well as ideas generated by the group during the training). By sharing, we all grow and expand our possibilities.
Using TECHNOLOGY with Students: See why you WANT the students to have their phones on while you speak. Mike Domitrz will show you an easy way to engage students with their cell phones – while you are actually speaking with them. Plus, he will give you a cool way to keep the conversation going with the students long AFTER you leave the school – all through basic cell phone technology. Gain simple ways to ENGAGE your audience through technology.
CERTIFICATION for ONE YEAR to present the “Can I Kiss You?” program in middle schools and high schools throughout your local region starting on February 27, 2012 (can be renewed before February 26, 2013).
RESULTS = ACTION! The purpose of an educational program is not just to raise awareness. The ultimate goal is to GET STUDENTS TO TAKE ACTION. After experiencing you present the “Can I Kiss You?” Show, students in your community will no longer be passive bystanders. In fact, all genders will look forward to peacefully intervening in dangerous situations.

Students will want to stop the predator at the parties; students will want to ASK FIRST when in an intimate moment (and will want their partners to ASK FIRST); and they will open their hearts and minds to the survivors in their lives – both now and in the future. Imagine helping students take all these actions. You have the opportunity. Become a Certified “Can I Kiss You?” Trainer and Presenter.

After capturing their curiosity and respect, Mike leads his audience in a profoundly practical exploration of the importance of asking.”
~ Dr. Debra Mashek,

Give Your Daughter the Desire to Want Better

When it comes to your daughter’s jerk boyfriend, do you often ask yourself, “How does she stay with this idiot?” Have you wanted to say (or maybe said), “Please leave him. He is a jerk!“? Do you hope she will find someone better or maybe just not date at all? Here is the difficult truth to hear: just leaving him won’t stop her from replacing him with another jerk. The good news is you can help get her to the point where she WANTS to leave him and WANTS BETTER for herself in the future!!

What precise plan have you put into place to help your daughter have the needed skills to handle what she is currently facing and could face again in the future (beyond just the “Don’t Do It” talk)? We haven’t even begun to talk about the sexual dangers which exist for her today.

With TV, teen magazines, music, movies, peers sharing at school, sexting, and the Internet promoting sexual activity among teens, your daughter is exposed to images making sexual activity look exciting, popular, and appear to be “what everyone is doing.” The pressure for her to be more sexual, including engaging in sexual activity, is stronger than ever. With all the talk of fondling, oral sex, and intercourse among today’s teenagers, how do you help protect your daughter?

While some parents like to joke about, “I just won’t let my daughter go out again,” that approach is obviously not healthy for a teenager. They need independence and to experience a social life away from Mom and Dad. Of course, that means you can’t be there all the time AND situations can go wrong. There is no way to guarantee 100% prevention of danger. What do you do?

You know the old parenting tactics of the past will not work with your teenager. Letting her find out on her own is way too dangerous and scary! Maybe she has already been trying that approach. So where do you find CURRENT STRATEGIES for talking to you teen?

Have you tried talking to your teen about dating, sex, being in a HEALTHY relationship, and intimacy? Did you get one of the following famous responses from your teen?

Rolling of the eyes
The look of “You don’t know anything.“
“Yea, Yea, Whatever” as they walk away.
“I am not talking with YOU about this.“
“I’m not doing any of this stuff anyways. You don’t need to worry.“
“I get it, okay?“

As you know, many teenagers love to talk with their friends about intimacy, dating, boys, girls, and even sexual situations. If they are having fun talking to their friends while getting lectured to by their parents, who are they likely to follow? Think back to your teenage years for a moment. Who wins? Their friends. Who loses in the long-run? You and your teen!

Isn’t it amazing how teenagers don’t believe you can possibly understand the feelings they are going through? Here is a pleasant surprise for many parents: most teenagers WANT to talk with their parents about dating, sex, and decision-making. Yes, you read correctly. Teenagers would prefer to hear from their parents and be “in the know” than to look naive with their friends. So why don’t they talk with their parents?

Finding out HOW TO get the conversation rolling the right way with your daughter is the first step. Do you know the biggest obstacle your teen has about sharing with you?

FEAR. The kind of fear that doesn’t go away by simply saying, “You can say anything to me.” By utilizing specific approaches which have a proven track record of working with teenagers of all backgrounds and demographics, you can overcome this fear factor teenagers possess about talking with Mom and Dad about dating, sex, intimacy, and decision-making. The key is finding an expert who will provide you with the strategies for getting your teen to talk with you AND can help insure you say the RIGHT WORDS once they are listening.

Mike Domitrz, critically-acclaimed author, expert, and internationally renown speaker, travels the world each year working with students and parents. As the Executive Director of The Date Safe Project, he is one of the country’s most sought-after speakers for discussing respect and dating with teens and parents. As a father of teenagers, he also understands how each day can bring new challenges. How can Mike help your family?

Research shows Mike’s approach with male and female teenagers results in a drastic increase with students changing their beliefs* after hearing Mike speak on what are usually considered “uncomfortable” and “sensitive” topics (*schools conducted pre-event surveys and post-event surveys).

While working with school districts throughout the country, Mike gets to hear thousands of teenagers share WHY they find talking with Mom and Dad to be uncomfortable. He also hears from the teenagers about the overly sexualized world they are experiencing (including their fears: from being “dumped” to being “used” to the tragedy of sexual assault). Before leaving each community, he asks the students what it will take for teenagers to listen to their parents. Knowing this answer can revolutionize a parent’s relationship with their teens.

On the same day he talks with the students, Mike meets with the parents. Moms & Dads equally share frustration and disappointment in not getting their daughters to take their advice. Continually, parents stress how different each of their children are and how it seems nothing works at times. Then Mike asks, “What has worked?” Thus accumulating the most successful strategies parents around the world are using. Wouldn’t that be interesting information to have?

When you combine the “best strategies” from parents with what teens state they NEED to engage with their parents – along with Mike’s unique track record of helping teens change their behavior toward dating, parties, sexual activity, and decision-making, you get a whole new approach for helping your daughter be as prepared as possible for protecting herself. Imagine your daughter in the healthiest relationship possible. What will it take for that picture to become a reality? Your teenager seeing YOU as the expert can be a big help!

Here is the good news (and exciting too). You now have an award-winning DVD and book set available which will help your daughter realize what a great source of knowledge you are while giving YOU the tools needed to be that fantastic resource for her! Imagine having an in-depth conversation about dating and sex with your teenager and then hearing her say, “Thanks for sharing with me. This was actually fun.” Picture your daughter telling you how she set strong standards with her partner right from the beginning of the date.

You deserve this unique connection with your teenager. You can make it happen starting today. HELP! My Teen is Dating. Real Solutions to Tough Conversations is an award-wining DVD & Book Set for both parents and teenagers. By sitting down in the comfort of your home, you’ll watch an entertaining, thought-provoking, and life changing DVD (in less time than you’d watch a movie on DVD). Plus, you get 2 critically-acclaimed books.

10 Skills You’ll Gain Inside HELP! My Teen is Dating:

1. How to start the talk and get your teen to listen.
This one method will transform how you talk with your teenager from now on (about anything). Have less stress and more fun together discussing sensitive issues.

“I found myself laughing, answering the questions, and nodding my head in agreement with the audience. We’ve all been told to ‘keep the lines of communication open’ with our sons and daughters, but nobody ever tells us how to do that. As a parent and educator, I guarantee that this video will give you the tools to talk to your teen about feelings and issues you thought were impossible to discuss.”
~ Cheryl Einsweiler, Parent and Community Resources/Educator

2. Three questions that define if your teen should be dating. Choosing a dating age is one of the most common mistakes parents make. When you realize this system for deciding when your teenager is ready to date, you will feel much better about your child being out with someone else. Best of all, your teenager will be safer.

3. What to say to your teen’s date. Many parents do not realize the impact this one conversation has with the date and their own teenager. When you discover the right way to address your teen’s dating partner, you and your child will have a tighter bond (including sharing a few laughs). More importantly, your teen will respect you and be more open with you.

4. The exact words for addressing intimacy. Words are powerful. Each word you choose will impact your teenager’s personal views of their body and sexuality. This one aspect will have the biggest influence on your child’s happiness in future relationships, including marriage.

5. How to establish clear & reasonable boundaries. Your beliefs are going to be a little different than your teenager’s views. If you ask your child, they may say they have the same views because they don’t want to disappoint you. When you understand how to bring out the true differences, you then establish the fundamentals for your teenager speaking out for herself (or himself) with their dates.

“HELP! MY Teen Is Dating is both funny, engaging, and educational. It will help you understand why a rock solid youth will give way to peer pressure. As a parent, I highly recommend it!“
~ John Hathaway, Health Educator & Parent (ID)

6. The power in Asking First. This simple concept is the most popular solution to eliminating the dangerous “dating games” teenagers play. As a parent, you will love this section!

7. The best way to discuss the dangers: from Alcohol to Sexual Assault. As you know, alcohol and drugs (including date rape drugs) are commonly used to rape, especially at parties. In fact, some teenagers brag about how drunk they get their partners before engaging in sexual activity. At the same time, most students do not believe it will happen to them. Every parent needs their child to realize this scare is real and then how to safeguard against it!

8. How to truly “Be There” for your child. Dating is dangerous and it involves great risk. As we discussed earlier, you can’t be with your child at all times. The greatest choice you can make is to give your teen every possible tool to protect herself. What if something still went wrong? There are no guarantees with a teen’s safety. What if your child was sexually assaulted? How would you handle it? Do you think your teenager would tell you?

The greatest lesson Mike has learned from traveling the country working with survivors of sexual assault is this one message: “Unless you say the right words to your child BEFORE a sexual assault occurs, odds are slim your child will ever tell you she was assaulted.” Too many parents make the crucial mistake of telling their daughter, “I’ll kill anyone who ever hurts you or touches you against your will.” Teen survivors of date rape state over and over how that one sentence is the #1 reason they never told their parents what happened. Find out what your teenager needs to hear you say! The right message is called “Opening the Door” and you will be emotionally moved when you discover the power in saying it.

9. Necessary skills to get your teenager to make good choices. When you discover how to talk with your teen about dating, the lessons crossover to all areas of life. If you can make a good dating choice, you can handle peer pressure better and stand up for yourself on any issue. Now you have a child who is more confident and wants to do the right thing.

“HELP! My Teen Is Dating provides parents and others with the tools necessary to have conversations with their teenagers as they begin to explore deeper relationships. The DVD encourages parents and others to demonstrate the care and concern that sometimes gets lost in the everyday routine of life, which in turn, nurtures teens’ self-confidence and the ability to make choices they won’t later regret. Listen, learn, be ready…watch HELP! My Teen Is Dating!“
~ Renée and Charlie Barr, Educators and Parents of two young women

10. Essential tips to fun and safer dating for your son or daughter. Do you know the best time for your teenager to go on a date? Do you know the worst place for a teenager to go? The DVD will uncover lots of surprise tips for dating that you and your teenager probably never thought of.

“Mike does an amazing job guiding parents on how to communicate with their teenagers about dating safely. Help! My Teen is Dating provides real solutions for parents and teaches fundamental respect for all people. A definite ’10′!“
~ Rose J. Torgerson, Sexual Assault Services and Education Coordinator for Cedar Valley Friends of the Family (IA)

PLUS:

Real-life scenes. Throughout the DVD, you get to observe parents and teenagers participating in role-playing scenarios. Seeing real-world examples makes using the information much easier for your family.

In Help! My Teen is Dating, you are given the precise ways to challenge and support your teenager in a manner that is both new, effective, and fun! You will find yourself laughing alongside your teenager; having a better connection with each other; comforted knowing you have a detailed plan for how to handle various situations; and looking forward to having more of these conversations.

Timing. Find out how to start the talk at the right time with the correct approach. Pick the wrong time and all you get is a very annoyed teenager who feels she (or he) is being forced to listen. The DVD will show you how to pick the right time — resulting in your teenager being better prepared to protect herself.

The author and presenter of the program was so intuned with the teen population and what is happening in society now. My mom was so impressed with the DVD, she is going to recommend it to the PTA at my school.

Discussing the 4 letter “F” word with your students

Yes, you need to talk with students of all ages (teenagers, middle school, high school, college, university) about the “4 letter F word” and so openly. Watch today’s video to see why this lesson is important:

True Support for Your Students

Whether you are a parent or an educator, you know the importance of having support in your life. Imagine your boss tells you, “Go ahead and give it a shot” and then does everything possible to make your life difficult in accomplishing your goal. Your Boss’s actions did not match his/her words.

When we see schools and parents who provide genuine, strong support, the RESULTS are amazing. Last night, York University’s President spoke briefly before my presentation and then sat in the FRONT ROW with MANY of the Vice Presidents from the university (York is located in Toronto). The significance of the leadership staying for the show sent a strong message to the students of much York cares about this issue. Most Presidents of universities make a quick visit and then leave.

A school with a history of showing their support for this issue is where I am speaking this evening: Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota. Every year, we have a “Train the Trainer” session and then go to dinner with the leadership from the campus (heads of departments from various elements of the college – including the President) before presenting the “Can I Kiss You?” presentation. The week of the program, their professors and staff wear the “Can I Kiss You?” shirts for several days. The result is a line of students every year waiting outside the doors of the Ballroom 2 HOURS before the show starts. The campus’s support results in a ROCK CONCERT MENTALITY for addressing safer dating and sexual assault!

In both cases above, people made it a mission to get the top leadership heavily involved. They subtly and creatively engaged top leadership to the point that the leadership WANTED to be affiliated with the mission and the program. What are you doing to engage your leadership in a manner which makes them WANT to strongly support your mission?

Working with Students – Are They Difficult?

Have Students changed since we grew up and are they more difficult to to work with now?

Recently, I was interviewed by a newspaper reporter from the Waco Tribune to talk about working with students in schools. Are teenagers more difficult today than 20 years ago? Are they less respectful of authority? … and many similar questions. My answer to each question was “NO!”

Don’t get me wrong. Students of today are different. They do not and will not accept “because I said so.” Students want you to explain “why” and they are right in making that request of educators, activists, politicians, parents, and others. If you want people to make the tough and correct choice when faced with difficult decisions, you must give them the proper foundation of decision-making. Each teenager must understand, at their deepest core, why doing the “right thing” is so vitally important to being a good person. When you understand the “why” of your decisions, going against peer pressure is much easier.

In addition to knowing the “why,” you must teach the TRUTH and be willing to hear the TRUTH yourself! Be open and honest with students. If you go to give a presentation on sexual assault, be prepared for all attitudes and answers that may come your way. Open yourself up to all challenges with a friendly face. If you become defensive towards a student’s comments during your program, you will turn many of the students “off” and thus, diminish your entire reason for speaking — to open their minds to a better approach and understanding. No matter how offensive the student’s comment may be, you must remain calm and address the negative comments with a positive approach. Time and time again, students tell us that our program is so successful because of the manner is which we relate to the students. The students love that we are willing to hear “their side of the story.”

For example, many people teach students that “No Always Means No.” However, in each crowd of 30 students, you will have AT LEAST one female who will believe that you are wrong in telling students that “No Always Means No.” In this one female’s mind, she will be thinking “that is not true. I have said ‘no’ as part of a game I play with the guys I’m with.” How do you address this issue? If you simply say “NO always means NO”, you are going to lose credibility after you leave the room. Why? At least one female student (if not more) will talk about how they personally break that rule which makes you wrong because you said, “Always.” Once a student can prove you wrong, the other student’s will believe their peer and not you. After you lose your credibility, all the lessons you were teaching will be lost by the majority of the students.

Then how do you address to students the issue that “No Always means No?” Change the wording in your presentation to “Always respect the word ‘No’ as meaning ‘No!’ Then, you are showing the utmost respect for your partner.” By changing this wording, no one individual student’s argument can prove you wrong because you didn’t say what they were thinking (which you can’t absolutely know). Instead of trying to prove what they were thinking, you showed all the students the “right way” to respect another person.

With any decisions you make on your approach with students, you must explain your approach in a way that you feel comfortable and believe in If I gave you my speech, it wouldn’t work for you. Why? I fully understand my approach and believe in it 100%. My personal passion is the catalyst to my presentations. Your passion will be unique to you. If you try to copy another person’s program, students will know. Teenagers have a gift of being able to detect a “fake” and can tell when you are NOT passionate about what you are saying.

When a student does make a rude or insensitive comment, is it easy to remain objective and calm? No, but you are the professional and your goal should be to make a difference. Therefore, you must learn how to use this skill of “not attacking.” If you have spoke to students in the past and never heard arguments against your point of view, you are probably not provoking the students enough to hear what they are really thinking. Provoking must be done in a fashion that makes the students comfortable with you. You CANNOT lecture teenagers and make them feel comfortable. They hate lectures. Talk WITH them and listen to them. Then teach each of them what is the “right thing to do.”

Students of today are an awesome group of individuals who love to be challenged. Challenge them and open doors of change that they never expected to experience. By doing so, you will make an amazing difference!

INSURING A GREAT ASSEMBLY FOR YOUR SCHOOL:

One of the biggest fears many middle schools and high schools have is “How can we know this speaker is going to capture our students attention AND do so appropriately while giving them needed tools for making a difference?” The answer is: You need an expert with a proven track record of excellence with schools of all sizes, demographics, and cultures. You require a quick thinking professional who is gifted at reacting specifically to your students’ reactions and comments.

“Your presentation to the two junior highs: 500 and 440 teens, were outstanding. These teens were rowdy audiences, but you handled them expertly, got and held their attention and really made an impact. Even the School Principals who are somewhat conservative were very impressed.“
Anne Smith, RN, BSN, Yuma County Public Health Services District (AZ)

For over 2 decades, Mike Domitrz has been inspiring students, educators and parents with the unique combination of his hilarious sense of humor along with his uncanny ability to draw hard-hitting emotion from audiences. School districts constantly share what a lasting impact he has with people of all ages.

“It has been 3 months since you presented your ‘Can I Kiss You?‘ Program to high school students, and separately to parents, in our communities of Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, Illinois. To my surprise, and immense satisifaction, people are still talking about it!

…three students at a local coffee shop were overheard recently, two full months after your visit, discussing the idea of ‘asking’ that had been presented by ‘that dude we heard at school in the Fall.“
Lydia Backer, Program Director, LEAD (IL)

With Mike, you get a critically-acclaimed author and passionate educator on healthy dating, consent, bystander intervention, and supporting survivors who is leading the way by constantly changing and further improving each presentation he gives. You get a professional presenter who studies exactly how each audience member reacts to different techniques and learning styles. You get a dedicated advocate who commits to always respecting every aspect of a very sensitive topic.

“Mike Domitrz brought his powerful presentation to Mahnomen, Wauban and Circle of Life Schoos on the White Earth Ojibwe Nation and to an Alternative Learning Center near the reservation reaching 870 students…His method of not putting words into their mouths but instead using their words and language was absolutely incredible…

It is important to recognize that never before has there been a National Speaker who has ever promised our youth that he would respond to their emails within 24 hours. His commitment to make effective changes in the lives of our youth is to be commended.”
Lisa Brunner, Executive Director, Community Resource Alliance Tribal Alliance (MN)

To be an effective and powerful educator, you need to always be learning new approaches and concepts of working with people of all ages (students, staff, and parents). Yes, the educator needs to be a STUDENT. The #1 source for teaching better speaking techniques and presentation skills is the National Speakers Association (NSA) – the professional trade organization for speakers around the world.

Mike Domitrz is an active and involved member of NSA. In fact, he is one of the few Certified Speaker Professionals (CSP) across the globe specifically working in Education. Each year, the National Speakers Association gives this earned recognition to those speakers who accomplish all of the following criteria:

At least 50 speaking events each year for 5 consecutive years.
A score of at least 7.5 on evaluations from clients over the past 5 years (on a 10 point scale).
Minimum level of professional credits earned by attending NSA Educational Events (shows commitment to the craft of working with audiences and making a difference).

What does Mike being a Certified Speaking Professional mean to you? You are getting a leading authority, author and ally who is also one of the top speaking professionals in the world.

“Mike understands not only his message but the interests and needs of the audiences he serves. He has a very energetic and entertaining style that engages all audiences. His message is powerful and the people in his audience naturally gravitate to him.” Sam Silverstein, former President of the National Speakers Association.

Best of all, you are working with a devoted professional who CARES about you, your organization, your community, and each person in the audience. Individuals and organizations who have brought Mike to speak are continually telling us here at The Date Safe Project how wonderful he is to bring to their schools.

“He made my job very easy. He answered my numerous inquiries promptly, respected and honored our requests regarding his presentations and took the time to get know our audience before he arrived.”
Jayne Giroux, Making Good Choices Council, Bradenton (FL)

Do you want a speaker, author, and expert who is going to have your students rolling in the aisles from laughter and then just minutes later have everyone completely mesmerized in silence as he shares the personal story of his sister’s rape?

As a leading authority on consent, healthy dating, and sexual assault awareness, Mike Domitrz understands that students want to be entertained and that schools want an expert who will make a positive and long lasting difference in the lives of their students. Everyone in a school assembly program wants a compelling and powerful presentation that each person can relate to in a meaningful manner. For this reason, Mike takes you and your students on a journey from hilarious laughter to hard-hitting questions. Then, he provides the answers every student will immediately want to use in his or her own life.

From 6th grade through Seniors in High School, males and females from all cultures, backgrounds, sexual orientations, and diverse populations appreciate Mike’s sincerity and honesty. While he presents one of the “cleanest” programs in schools today, he holds nothing back.

Through his role-playing with audience members and his portrayal of intriguing characters on stage, Mike turns what is often labeled as a “silent” issue into an engaging and thought-provoking event for you and your students. While most people simply “make their move” on a date, you’ll discover how and why “asking first” makes all the difference! Students are given the precise words and skills to insure both partner’s boundaries are respected at all times. Plus, you and your students discover how to appropriately intervene in potentially dangerous situations, including with their friends (alcohol, parties, etc…). In addition, everyone learns how to “Open the Door” to properly support all survivors of sexual assault. Through it all, each person gains a greater level of admiration and respect for survivors of sexual assault.

Throughout your event, Mike will reveal a new and fun approach towards respect that will change each student’s outlook on dating and intimacy. When your students leave the “Can I Kiss You?” program with Mike Domitrz, they will be telling their friends, “Wow! I never thought of that stuff before!
