Egyptian Revival – The Return of the 6 Foot Balloon

On: December 3, 2017

During my Egypt trip, they asked if I could do something different during my show. This being my 6th trip in 2 years meant they had seen all my stuff. Now we needed something new…It was time for the revival of the 6 foot balloon! The what? Years back, and I mean like 20, I was the 2nd (or 3rd) person in the USA to learn how to perform with a giant 6 foot balloon. The basic premise was to climb inside it and then back out. It was an odd thing that no one had really seen before. Outside of a cheesy used carRead More →

Egyptian Underwater Jump Rope Show

By: Peter Nestler

On: December 1, 2017

What a whirlwind it has been traveling around the world for the past 2 months! Yesterday included 30 hours of travel back to my camper from Italy. I had shows in Mexico City, Egypt and Italy since I left back in October. I will talk about my Italian adventures in a different post, but today I want to focus on a strange request for me to do some underwater jump rope during my show in Egypt. October was my 6th trip to perform in Egypt in the last 2 years. I’ve had a lot of fun performing for tens of thousands of people (over 15Read More →

I have 450 students who just enjoyed the Rope Master and his assistant. We gathered in the gym this rainy afternoon and it was certainly a bright spot. These performers are awesome. They did an excellent job and mesmerized us all. What I think was as impressive as anything, not only are they so talented World Champions, this gentlemen knows what he's doing. With our current focus on coordinated school health, this was the perfect program because he talked about wellness and demonstrated wellness and talked about how to be a champion at everything you do. His advice was excellent, his time was well spent with us. I would highly recommend this assembly, it's one of the best we've ever had.
I've had teachers exiting with their classes this afternoon saying, wow! That was awesome! or what a valuable program or an excellent choice for a program. We don't always hear that. These folks brought talent with them as well as an important message. Our student body was very attentive and enjoyed it. We have pre-schoolers through 5th graders and I think everybody left here just amazed. An amazing, awesome program that we were delighted to have this afternoon and would love to have back. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Being a former middle school principal, working with grades 6 through 8, I would love to have it for a middle school program also. I would certainly highly recommend it for most any audience and I certainly appreciate the time people have given us.
