We saw your performance at the Missouri Fairs and Festival Convention in Columbia earlier in the year. We got a chance to talk with you one-on-one later in the day, and your personality and smile “closed the deal.” Actually booking your performance was quite easy through the email address you provided to us.
You exceeded our expectations. You were able to work through the heat and light rain. And you stayed friendly and approachable to all of the children watching your performance, and the ones that followed you around later when you were making the giant bubbles.
My greatest concern was that someone would say that it was too scary or too extreme for Old Shawnee Days….but no one posted or made these comments to us. I attended several of your performances to watch the crowd, and they were anxious and curious and nervous…which I think is the expected response!
You were very kind to listen to our concerns and tailor your acts to better fit the Old Shawnee Days crowds. Also, I would tell them that you have a beautiful personality that matches your beautiful smile, and you are the type of performer that we want in our festival. We plan to book her for 2018!

Our booking and communications with Martika were super smooth. She responded very quickly to initial reach-out via email and her follow-up was wonderful. As the event got closer we communicated via cell phone and again everything went so smoothly. We were introduced to Martika’s show at the Wisconsin Association of Fairs Annual Convention. Fair Board members who attended brought back her information and felt she would be a fantastic fit for our show. Martika’s show was a delight. The fire portion was riveting to watch and the audience seemed to enjoy it immensely. My personal favorite part of the show was when she brought audience members (children) to work with. This interaction was wonderful to watch. Everyone that I have spoken to who watched her show felt it was wonderful and many have asked if we would be having her back again the following year. I would definitely encourage anyone looking for a fun, interactive show to look at Martika and the options she has for her shows. She was able to work with us to get exactly the type of show we were looking for at a very reasonable cost. We have already asked Martika back for the 2019 Washburn County Fair!

Communication and booking was excellent! Very prompt. I found Martika at the Iowa performer’s showcase. She was on time, very nice, entertained and engaged the audience, and spent time talking to attendees afterward. You should book her! She knows what she is doing, is professional, personable, and fun! I would absolutely book her again.

Martika came to our artist group “The Northland Art League” in the north area of Kansas City, MO and did a presentation with some performance. She also gave us some of her motivation speech along with a portion of her artist bio. We are a group of artists, hobbyists and professional and art appreciationists living in the area north of the Missouri river in Kansas City, MO. We have monthly meetings in which we talk about our opportunities as artists and how we are going to create opportunities as artists for our group and we host artist presenters. Martika gave an artist presentation to us recently and we all found it to be very exceptional. The performance was exciting, the talk was very motivational, open and conducive to anyone and everyone to being able to grow. Her answers to the questions were very informative and educational. The evening was a fun, exceptionally exciting and motivating experience. We all loved it very much and would love to host her again.

I’ve seen Martika’s show quite a few time… Both at private events and on a open festival site… She is an amazing artist and never ceases to blow me away… I don’t think I’ve ever seen the same show twice…if you are considering booking her, don’t hesitate because she does not disappoint… If I had a need I’d definitely book

Our district is mostly known as an adult area, but we wanted to expand our reach to include more of the local community. Her 3 shows were terrific, and great for kids and adults.

I have worked fairs and trade shows with Martika and continue to be impressed. It is not my way to give high ratings or praise that is unearned. Any event or venue will always get more than their money’s worth from her.

I felt like I wanted to see more of the LED light up hula hoop show. Everyone thought it was great idea! We did not hear one negative word. I think they were amazed we had real entertainers come to our little school!
If you are thinking about hiring Martika you should it only made our event that much better!! Would for sure hire them again for a future event.

Martika is a very creative and unique teacher who brings a passion to teaching hooping that influences all of her students for the better. It is fun, upbeat, exciting and accessible to all levels!
Martika has excelled as a Wanderlust presenter – working with the top international yoga festival in the world – so there is no need to be uncertain. She has traveled all over the country, teaching people of all levels, under varying conditions, and maintains a sense of professionalism, grace and enthusiasm – always.
