Embodiment for Coaches & Trainers Workshop
Those of you involved in coaching and training may find this new practical workshop from VoxImpact (Maria Wilhelmsson) interesting.
Lead by Mark Walsh, one of Europe’s leading ‘embodied’ trainers, the workshop sets out to look at how our physical presence impacts the way we work with and influence others. It aims to demonstrate how participants can make better use of posture, movement and breathing, as well as better assessments of the signs from others, to improve the learning experience and improve results – even in a no-nonsense business environment.
The workshop will take place in Morges on Friday 23 May from 09:00-17:30.
