Quality Lifestyle Quality Performance Health & Fitness Talk For SIM
It’s my first public talk this year and I’m all excited about it. In fact, I’ve been spending the last few days preparing for it, scripting and rescripting my data. So here I am at the NUSS (National University of Singapore Society) Suntec City Guild House at the invitation of Singapore Institute of Management (SIM) to give a dinner talk on health and fitness. I received the invitation to speak a few months ago and accepted it as I felt it would be a blessing to share my knowledge with others. More importantly, it would allow me to fulfill my …
Healthy Lifestyle Talk For Singapore Police Force
As the saying goes, you never know who you are going to meet. Very often, one opportunity leads to another. One of the participants from my previous Quality Lifestyle Quality Performance dinner-time talk just last month sent me an invite via email asking if I could give a similar healthy lifestyle talk to a group of police officers on 18 Nov 08. I’m sure she must have found my earlier talk useful. I replied saying I would be happy to oblige. From what I understand, the Singapore Police Force has won a string of awards such as Singapore Quality Award, People Developer …
Health & Fitness Workshop for Jurong Junior College JC1 Girls: Part 2
Today’s the second installment of my health and fitness workshop at Jurong Junior College (JJC) for the JC1 Girls’ Camp. Returning for the second time is always memorable as feedback from yesterday’s session showed the students wanting more bodyweight exercises. Sporting a more energetic look in my sporty red & black themed gym gear, the stage was set for an energising 1.5hr session ahead. Looking at the girls decked in their PT attire reminded me of my own school days. With the floodgate of junior college memories wide open, I started the workshop by getting the girls to do a …
Health And Fitness Talk For Ministry Of Education (MOE)
Imagine being asked to speak at a service excellence themed event on a topic that is non-service related. Most people would probably think twice before accepting. But not the organizers and myself. We agreed that it could be done and would be interesting. Titled “Serving You, Serving Me”, the service excellence themed event at the Ministry of Education (MOE) Headquarters first kicked off with an award presentation ceremony honoring the most service oriented staff in the ministry under the “Serving You” category before proceeding with my portion on health and fitness which was billed under “Serving Me”. If you think …

Health And Fitness Lifeskills Elective Module For Marsiling Secondary School
To broaden the quality of school education and allow students to look forward to more opportunities for experiential, practice-oriented learning, an increasing number of schools have started to introduce elective modules. As its name suggests, an elective module is a specially designed programme to help students discover their interests and talents, and make learning more engaging. Many a times, what we learn from the textbooks cannot measure up to what actually happens in the real world. Welcome to the real world! The real world out there is where our skills are tested and where we gather new knowledge. Forget about …
Health And Fitness Talk For Edgefield Secondary School
I always believe being able to share my knowledge with others is a blessing. And being able to multiply that many times and share with 320 students is a huge blessing. This was what awaited me at Edgefield Secondary School this morning. I was invited to the school to talk to the Secondary 1 students on health and fitness. Walking into the school hall and being introduced on stage in front of a big group felt like a far-fetched dream years ago. After all, wasn’t I the shy, introverted, pock-marked face hermit? Fast forward to today and I have shed …
Health Talk For Chung Cheng High School
Health and fitness will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s not only because it has become part of my lifestyle, but more importantly, it’s my roots. So when I was invited to give a health and fitness talk to the Secondary 4 graduating students of Chung Cheng High School, I agreed readily. When you are seen as a role model for others to emulate, there is no greater privilege than this. Like many others out there, I have had my own insecurities too when I first started out. To show the students that the me back then …
Health And Fitness Talks At AusGroup
It’s been a long while since I was invited back to the industrial estates to conduct my health and fitness talks. And here I am, in this two-part series, yesterday and today, at AusGroup, located at the far far west of Tuas.As with any other industrial, construction, manufacturing or shipping industries, holding a talk is always challenging for any trainer as you need to code switch between English, Mandarin and dialects sometimes too! Faced with the different nationalities in the room, from our locals to the Malaysians, Indians and Chinese nationals, being able to switch from one tongue to another was …
