Rae Raptor

SPEAKING

Rae loves adventure and will happily consider invitations to speak, give readings, lead discussions, or offer workshops in a variety of settings, both indoors and out.

Drawing on her experience as a retired professor, author, and the world’s oldest woman highliner, Rae speaks about fear, aging, reinvention, balance, and faith. Her presentations combine storytelling, humor, reflection, and scenes from the world of highlining and outdoor adventure.

Rae is especially interested in offering balance workshops that combine conversation about physical and mental balance with simple, hands-on introductions to slacklining and other balance activities in parks, retreat settings, or community spaces.

She enjoys tailoring presentations, workshops, and discussions for particular audiences and settings.
