"he made the night and managed to keep the perfect balance of professionalism"
Karry Summers, Director of Altitude Studios Ltd
"Tim Batt was the compare for the NZ Amateur Pole Performer competition for both the Auckland heat and the Grand Finals. This competition is held throughout the country and recognised the hard work and fitness aspect that pole dancing is now becoming.
The finals had over 120 spectators and lasted for 3 hours. During this time Tim had the hard job of warming the crowd up, keeping the crowd entertained between each competitor and getting them cheering for each competitor. He interacted with the crowd really well and kept them focused throughout the night.
He was amazing at thinking on the spot when things took longer than expected and did a great job of conveying important information about our sponsors and selling points.
We had great feedback from the audience about Tim, saying that he made the night and managed to keep the perfect balance of professionalism for what can easily become a ‘sleezy’ night. We definitely plan on using Tim again."
