Booking

Be nice. Jill is known to answer the phone.

Jill is based in New York City, but she travels everywhere. She charges flat fees so what you are quoted is what the total cost will be. Keep this in mind when you host your conference at a resort or casino. We love casinos, so it’s okay with us.

Jill’s fees are subject to date and location. For the best deal, book Jill when she is already planning to be in your area. When will Jill be in your area? Start by checking under the tour tab on her website. If you don’t see your date yet, that means we are hard at work on our schedule. Either way, email us with your interest and ideal dates and we will get to work on making it happen.

Jill books one to six months in advance.

Jill does media tours using her teaching tools to cross-promote and draw attention to healthy products and organizations.

If you are interested in booking Jill and her entourage, and you don’t think you have the dolla billz, try this:

• Local and state health departments have funding earmarked for wellness. Specifically, health departments have a pool of money called "tobacco free" money from cigarette company settlements. Call your county health department and speak to their wellness coordinator to inquire about the availability of these funds.
  
  
• Contact your state or local “Council for the Arts.” Many of the councils have grants for teachers to bring in artists like Jill.
  
  
• Contact your county educational services board that regulates your teaching standards and curriculum. In New York, for example, the BOCES (Board of County Educational Services) provides funding in full for Jump with Jill! Ask specifically for the "arts in education coser."
  
  
• Reach out to healthy companies in your area that might be interested in sponsoring or co- sponsoring the show in your school. The company will be featured in all our media materials and in the show in your area, providing a unique advertising opportunity for them, and a free show for you. Connect them with us and we can work out the finer details.
  
  
• Other companies, like Walmart, offer grants for wellness programming.
  
  
• Talk to other performance centers or schools in your district or nearby. We can offer the best price when we can make multiple stops in one area.
