Charmaine Childs: Inspirational Speaker & Workshop Facilitator.
Strong Lady Productions is excited to offer you speaking events & workshops for exploring physical and mental strength. These can be associated with a performance date or run independently, with content adaptable for your context.
Charmaine has been touring the world for over 15 years performing as a Strong Lady & partner acro base… basically she has made a career out of lifting people into the air as if they were feathers with her signature mix of comedy, strength and grace. Her primary work has been her solo Strong Lady show – an elegantly presented array of feats of strength, laden with comedy. She has also performed in a number of duo and ensemble circus shows as a Strong Lady, most notably the spectacular acrobatic show Leap.
All of Charmaine’s performances are characterised by a playful mix of strength, grace and comedy. She has built a career out of delighting in the things that make her different to other people, developing her physical and mental strength to allow her to uplift audiences around the globe…
Now she is sharing what she learned along the way, by speaking at events and facilitating workshops. It’s your turn to become the Strong Lady/Strong Man.

In this presentation I share what I have learned about developing mental strength along the journey of performing and touring alone around the world, running a successful international arts company and being a STRONG LADY. Being strong is aimed to inspire audiences to cultivate their own mental strength: the ability to be stable, resilient, agile and powerful.
The content is delivered with comedy and grace through a combination of projected presentation and interactive performance of ‘Feats-of-strength’ as metaphors to help the information stick.
I explore ways to develop mental strength through crafting our habits of action and thought. This delves into information about neural pathways, abundance mindset, being in approach mode and focusing our attention to train the minds RAS filter. I look at ways we can tap into the Biofeedback loop and craft our internal story to develop vagal tone and release chronic stress or reactivity by stimulating the ‘rest and digest’ mode (PSNS).
I frame this information in the context of my life as a strong lady and attach this potentially dense information to entertaining feats-of-strength to make it light and uplifting. People leave this event feeling empowered to create change and initiate an upward spiral in their own experience.

I can adapt content to suit your event and the interests of your audience. The grounding of any presentation I offer is my experience of being a professional STRONG LADY and my prospective on cultivating physical and mental strength.
