LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR EVENT

DEAN'S SIGNATURE KEYNOTE

The Aging Musts: Your Independence Blueprint

Dean's signature keynote challenges the usual conversation about getting older and asks a more important question: How do we stay strong, capable and independent enough to keep living the life we want?

Mobility • Movement • Muscle • Meals • Mindset

A Question That Gets the Audience Thinking.

Dean invites audiences to think beyond birthdays, diagnoses and statistics—and picture the life

they still want to be living five, ten or even twenty years from now. Travel. Play with your grandchildren.

Work in your garden. Walk through an airport. Carry your own groceries.

Get down on the floor—and get back up. Stay in your own home. Make your own decisions.

"These aren't simply activities. They're expressions of independence."

FOR EVENT PLANNERS

WHAT AUDIENCES ARE SAYING

The Message Connects. The Audience Responds.

“Dean was excellent, and everyone loved that he shared such personal stories of his health struggles. The message was very motivating, and we received extremely positive feedback from our residents.

The morning exceeded my expectations!”

Cheryl Kampa

Amavida of Lakes Park
Fort Myers, Florida

“My strength, endurance, flexibility and balance have all improved immensely. My daily activities have become easier to do, and I enjoy more freedom of movement now.

This is the first fitness program I tried that truly helped me get my life back on track at a pace that felt safe.

My quality of life has definitely improved.”

Susan R.

Aging Boldly Participant

“Dean’s classes combine fitness with fun and camaraderie. His Aging Boldly classes became so popular two more classes per week had to be added.

During these months my strength, flexibility and balance have improved significantly. These issues are important to performing everyday tasks at 68 years of age.”
