DEALING WITH PEER PRESSURE / GROUP THINK

This has become one of the most popular presentations selected by educators and corporate groups. A sensitive topic that plagues youth and adults alike, Chris discusses maintaining individuality while using common sense in a group, team, or community setting. 

The topic is presented in a multimedia format, weaving a compelling lesson into the program. Peer pressure and group think are issues that hit close to home for both children and adults alike as both populations deal with an overwhelming amount of peer pressure. The balance between conformity and individuality is a fine line to walk while maintaining group function or maintaining friends among peers. From the playground to the office, who we are as an individual can sometimes be compromised when working as a team. It is hard to hold onto our own values and maintain discipline, common sense, and integrity among a group made up of various personality types while undertaking and successfully completing a task as a group.  

During the presentation, Chris provides an example of how school students can learn from his real-life experiences and make better choices. He shares a moment from a film shoot when his team worked in hazardous avalanche terrain, and he invites the audience to help him break down the case study so that they can learn to make the right decision next time.

"CLIMB TO GLORY” 
Story of America’s First Military Ski Troop

The story of the legendary United States Army’s 10th Mountain Division provides a subject matter that provides the opportunity to look at world, American, and particularly Colorado history dating back to 1939. The story of the Army’s first specialized mountain unit (1941-45) covers their impact on the world past and present. The story spans from 1939 to today and demonstrates how this amazing generation of men and women left home as young adults and teenagers and overcame incredible obstacles to help bring down tyranny and build a better world.  

Chris Anthony co-produced and appears in this wonderful award-winning documentary in partnership with the Colorado Snow Sports Museum and Warren Miller Entertainment.  To date, it has been screened in front of more than 30,000 students in classroom settings.

 

A GEOGRAPHICAL, CULTURAL &SCIENTIFIC JOURNEY

In this presentation, Chris takes the audience around the planet utilizing material from 28 years of traveling with the Warren Miller Film Team as well as a few of his own projects.  This talk provides material that will transport the students from their desk to a variety of geographical regions on our planet, providing the opportunity to visit different cultures and environments. During the 50-minute presentation, Chris is usually able to cover three locations.  (Teachers can inquire about the locations so as to prepare their students for the visit)

THE LONG COLD WALK: “A Disappearing Planet”
This is a journey into Northwestern China to the border of Mongolia to track down an ancient civilization of skiers.  Rock carvings found in this part of the world date back 5,000 years and show records of an ancient society who were skiers. What makes this unique is that many descendants still live the same way as their ancestors.  Chris and the Warren Miller film crew trekked into the Altay Mountains to find and document this group.
