"Students and teachers felt joy and enthusiasm. Children who are not usually spotlighted were -- and loved it! Seeing parents and children learning and working together on Family Juggling Night was a delight! This superlative program has academic relevance and immediately visible results. My staff and I recommend it highly."
- Linda Aldridge Steenrod, Superintendent of Schools, Laurel Springs, New Jersey
"The program was great, our students loved it and the cost was fair. Family Juggling Nights have been enthusiastically attended two years in a row. The pride and excitement represented by the growing achievement chart on our wall is testimony to the effectiveness of this program."
- Lucy Stewart, Principal, Atlantic Beach Elementary School, Jacksonville, Florida
"Not only does the program work on eye/hand coordination but also on self-esteem, confidence, peer teaching and more! We bring Juggling for Success™ back at least every other year for a refresher for students and staff."
- Dr. Richard Davis, Director of Health and Physical Education, Fulmar Road School, Mahopac, New York
"Everyone got involved. Now our classroom teachers all want their own sets of equipment for physical activity breaks and rainy day recess. Feedback from parents has been great. They were still talking about the juggling program days later."
- Jay Brabazon, Physical Education Teacher, Wampatuck ES, Scituate, Massachusetts
"I remember sitting on the floor, leaning against the tile wall of a gym in an elementary school in north Tulsa, tears streaming down my face. It was the moment that it dawned on me that you weren't teaching juggling--you were teaching how to love each other. You were teaching those grandparents how to support and hug and show pride in the grandchildren they were raising. You were teaching the kids to feel proud and comfortable performing on stage. You were teaching everyone the importance of hugging. You were teaching the good stuff, Dave, and I was deeply moved that night--and forever changed.
The room may have been divided by ethnicities, language, and culture, but you united it with pride, love, and joy. Not to mention juggling!."
