Brett's Most Requested Speaking Topics:

1. Inside the Mind of a Stuntman

How do stuntmen deal with their emotions when performing big stunts?

Hollywood Stuntman and fear expert Brett Solomano will teach your group how to think like a stuntman. Not only do his ideas work on a movie set, but they are highly effective in the business world as well!

Brett understands that fear is a natural response. Having the right attitude and awareness while bringing the right resources allows us to apply ourselves towards feeling fear. When life throws us a curveball, we can respond and know how to step up and lean into it, not away from it. This gives us the opportunity to take things up to the next level with business, money, relationships, and life.

In The Mindset of a Stuntman, Brett will teach your audience:

• What it’s like to be a stuntman on a movie set and how you can become one in life as well.
• How to take bigger risks in the business world.
• How to leverage your emotions and not have them get in the way.

This presentation is the perfect fit for corporate audiences and entrepreneurs.

 

2. Active Mindfulness: Meditation for People Who Can’t

Have you been told you need to meditate but couldn’t get it to work for you?

When Brett Solomano first started stunt driving, he was taught by his mentor that he must “slow his mind down in order to make the car speed up.” He learned that exercising more control begins on the inside. He has since utilized this technique in his career as a Hollywood stuntman and in working with kids around the world. And now, Brett has decided to share his technique with corporate audiences who are looking for new ways to succeed!

A lot of people struggle to meditate. They know it is good for them, but they don’t understand how to make it happen. Brett has found that not everyone is able to be present and focused by sitting down, keeping quiet. Active Mindfulness is meditation for people who struggle to do it the traditional way. In business, the work we do can often have triggering effects on us, from the people to the pressures of deadlines. Possessing the ability to be mindful of our emotions helps us choose our thoughts so that we can choose our actions.

Ever wanted to get your kids to focus? Active Mindfulness also works great for “disadvantaged” kids who don’t want to sit down, keep quiet and close their eyes.

In Active Mindfulness: Meditation for People Who Can’t, Brett will teach your audience how to:

• Utilize various meditation techniques all giving you the same outcome – mindfulness.
• Meditate while walking, or doing anything.
• Incorporate meditation into a busy life.
• Engage with your body and mind on a much deeper level of awareness.
• Understand and accept your emotions and feelings.

This presentation is a great fit for both small and large audiences. It’s a perfect fit for corporate groups,
entrepreneurs, teens, and disadvantaged youth.

 

3. A Stuntman’s Guide to Learning Anything

My compass thankfully was so strong that it pulled me along against everyone else’s wishes. You should
listen to your compass to guide you into the unknown. Trust it more than other people, because they are
telling you what they would do and what their compass is telling them. -Brett Solomano

Learning traditionally is about getting everything correct, with there being only one right way to do things. We are taught from a young age that “persistent perfect practice makes perfect” and traditional schooling is a reflection of this.

School never teaches us how to look into the unknown though and push the limits. Because of this, Brett Solomano takes a stuntman’s approach to learning, one that has helped him personally in his career and helped him teach young people around the world. Brett believes that instead of learning what someone else has done and being like them, use curiosity, creativity, exploration (and just the right amount of breaking the right rules) to find your own way.

Instead of focusing on the finite, goals are achieved when we focus on the infinite possibilities out there.

In A Stuntman’s Guide to Learning Anything, your audience will gain:

• The permission and ability to get out of their comfort zone and push their limits.
• An understanding of different types of teachers, coaches and mentors, and when to utilize each.
• The importance of goal setting…AND the right way to do it!
• Learning to be curious, have fun and play with your “work”, instead of doing your dreaded practice.

This presentation is a perfect fit for all kids who are in their early to mid-teens. It works well in
schools for grades 8-10, youth groups, and disadvantaged youth.
