Motivational Speaker Kathryn Bakke
Having held demanding church music positions; having taught advanced, prize-winning piano students, she now performs theme show tours all over the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area and nationally - almost 250 engagements in 2006.
This stunning accomplishment, combined with her ability to motivate audiences, is the platform from which she inspires and educates people to confront their challenges and vanquish them.
As a speaker, she is equally effective as an advocate and trainer and an eloquent keynote speaker. Her musical keynotes hold lasting places in her audiences' memories.
As a pianist/entertainer, Kathryn specializes in theme shows, both seasonal and creatively customized. She has been referred to as a female Victor Borge. Performing at the piano with élan, she seasons her shows with humorous routines about funny things that happen to her in her varied, challenging and joyful life and appealing nostalgic stories. She fills the need of her audience to "get away", both physically and emotionally, to a happier world.

Those of us who live in rural Minnesota seldom have the opportunity to attend workshops of this caliber without driving great distances. We are grateful that you were willing to come to us. Your encouragement to find detours rather than stop at road blocks when we are handed seemingly impossible challenges was an inspiration for all of us. Your message says we all have hurdles to overcome, but to strive to seek fulfillment in life no matter what happens along the way. Many in our audience came to me and said how much they appreciated the opportunity to hear your message and your piano performance. Thank you for playing beautiful music and for providing us with helpful skills to continue our life's journey. - Rayanne Sillers, Director One to One Peer Counseling and Conference Chair
