STANDING OVATIONS
Rooted. Grounded. Standing.
Standing Ovations, founded by, Shandra L. Terry, uses the art of storytelling to spark change. Through impactful keynotes, engaging learning modules, and educational poetic performances like the Rosa Parks monologue, I help audiences connect, reflect, and take action.
What began with poetry recitals as a child, has become a mission to educate and uplift others. From classrooms to corporate conferences, I speak to inspire breakthroughs, bring life and light to any room, build community, and leave people feeling seen, heard, and empowered.
Shandra performs the powerful highly sought-after monologue, "Rosa Parks: A Catalyst in the New World."
