Workshop/Active presentation/BOARD BREAK (Keynote included)

A great way to kick off a conference or as the very last session – to end on the high energy and sense of achievement of all breaking the boards together.

This works well with any size group, small and intimate or hundreds of people. The noise and intensity in the room with hundreds of people breaking boards is awesome!

Includes:

• Simple but high energy taekwondo moves (punching pads, self defence etc).
• Focus on fun, teamwork, practical skills and key messages.
• All participants breaking boards (takes only a few minutes at the end).
• Signing of participants’ boards as take home souvenirs.

Topics:

• Overcoming challenges / adversity
• Natural talent vs Determination and passion
• Goal setting / planning / strategy
• Mental Toughness
