🥊 Power Moves in the Workplace
A movement-based experience for navigating hard conversations at work
💥 What if your next career breakthrough didn’t come from a PowerPoint...
but from throwing a jab, slipping a punch, and learning to stand your ground?
Power Moves in the Workplace is not your typical professional development session. It’s a 2.5-hour experience designed to help youth like you build the confidence, clarity, and composure to handle some of the toughest moments early in your career — from awkward feedback to quitting gracefully. In partnership with Kadir's Boxing School, this session fuses beginner-friendly boxing drills with facilitated conversations to help you master the real moves that matter at work.
🎯 Who is this for?
- Young professionals (aged 20s–30s) navigating early work life
- First jobbers, interns, or those in their 2nd or 3rd role who want to get better at or prepare for difficult conversations in a fun, active way
- No boxing experience required. Just show up with an open mind!
🧭 What you’ll learn (without a single slide deck):
- How to “throw the first punch” aka speak up with confidence
- What to do when gossip, micromanagement or tension shows up
- How your body language, breathing and stance influence how you're perceived
- Simple, real-life ways to stay grounded when emotions run high
🥊 What to expect:
- Light boxing coaching from experienced trainers
- Real talk about the awkward stuff nobody teaches you in school — giving feedback, saying no, handling gossip
- Partner exercises, group reflection, and lots of movement (but no sparring!)
- Leave with one Power Move you’re ready to take in your own workplace
🧘 What to bring:
- Water bottle
- Comfortable clothes for light physical movement
- An open mind (and maybe one awkward work story)
