Today, we had the opportunity to re-acquaint ourselves with Tai Chi, courtesy of Robert Joyce. Resilience, mindfulness and mental toughness are all hot topics at the moment and we were attending one of Robert's workshops, as part of the development of a leadership programme in the private sector.
Robert has an easy style, and aims to de-mystify Tai Chi. He explains things in a simple way and gives the rationale for the benefits of Tai Chi, using both Eastern and Western philosophies. Before teaching Tai Chi full time, he worked as a Project Manager in engineering, so he's well-used to explaining things to busy managers. As he introduces the movements, each is built up gradually (we actually started learning the exercises while sitting).
The two hour workshop proved to be quite a workout!
Robert is based in Poole, Dorset (UK) and you can find him at:
