Eyes Up Training Limited

eyes up training limited

Plymouth

At Eyes Up Training Limited, we specialise in transforming the ways in which professionals who regularly encounter secondary trauma connect, communicate, and build resilience. In high-stress environments, such as those faced by first responders, legal professionals, and victim services, emotional intelligence is not an optional skill; it is essential. It is crucial to approach your often traumatised clients and service users with compassion and empathy. Additionally, fostering an emotionally safe and resilient team culture is vital for processing secondary trauma you all experience from time to time. To achieve this, you need emotional skills that go beyond mindfulness and positive thinking. Based on the proven Emotional Logic method developed by Dr. Trevor Griffiths, our training programs provide the necessary emotional intelligence skills and equip you with practical tools to enhance your emotional well-being and professional effectiveness. OUR UNIQUE TRAINING APPROACH PERSON-CENTRED LEARNING  We are committed to connecting with each participant personally by crafting engaging and interactive learning experiences that are relatable, developmental and transformative at every turn. Our goal is to equip everyone for a journey of lifelong learning that lasts well beyond the session.  PRACTICAL LEARNING  At the heart of our training design is a commitment to practical, actionable methods that drive real results. We believe in the power of hands-on learning, which is why our immersive teaching and coaching techniques allow our learners to dive right in and practice these methods.  SOCIAL LEARNING  By nurturing a spirit of lifelong collective learning, we can contribute to developing positive workplace cultures. Our training sessions serve as environments where individuals learn with and from each other, establish deeper connections, and build or restore trust. We foster collaboration and innovation, offering participants something far more valuable than mere knowledge and skills—each other.

I’ve made a few fresh starts, but as a business coach, enabling others who are over 50 to make their best new start is the most rewarding. Being middle-aged has so many advantages too. We know who we are, more or less. We have bags of experience. We know what we want, or at least a strong sense of what we don’t. We know what our values and passions are and we crave a life filled with meaning and purpose. That often means impacting the world more positively as well as personal success. This is where I can help because I’ve been there. As a business coach I get to use all my knowledge and experience gained over 30 years in various industries, start-ups as well as scaleups, agencies as well as manufacturing. I’ve experienced successes and failures and am driven to help people avoid the same mistakes I made and to help them achieve work or a business filled with an expression of who they are and what they want to offer the world. My coaching sweet spot is founders who know their subject matter but are less sure of how to achieve sufficiency, sustainability or growth. Starting a business can feel like it’s all about survival, but it is possible to grow and be successful without losing yourself. I can help you gain the freedom to enjoy life whilst increasing revenue and profit growth. I’m naturally person-centred, playful and challenging in my approach. I’m also comfortable with uncertainty when you might be struggling to stick with it. I carry with me practical experience of many hundreds of businesses and their markets and different business and growth models. Together we can create clarity to focus on your customers, whatever the market, whatever the product or service. To enable you to move your life and business life towards your passion; for the environment, social equity or humanity, towards you.

Brian McMinn: Gestalt Therapy Workshops

brian mcminn: gestalt therapy workshops

I am Irish but have lived in the northwest of England for over 20 years. After originally qualifying as a person-centred counsellor in 1994, I worked in GP practices in the northwest and in north Wales before working in London at the Beverley Clinic. I was then invited to teach, part-time, on counselling courses at Oldham College, and progressed to a full-time post as programme leader for the counselling diploma. Subsequently, I worked full-time as lecturer and joint course leader at University of Salford for a number of years before deciding to leave teaching and focus on providing therapy. In 2006, I qualified as a Gestalt psychotherapist (Manchester Gestalt Centre and Metanoia Institute). Gestalt theory and practice is fascinating, and the thoroughness of the training, which is accredited by Gestalt Psychotherapy & Training Institute, makes it a highly respected and powerful approach. At a recent estimate, I have worked therapeutically with over 8000 clients for an average of ten sessions each. I would like to say that therapy was successful with all – but not quite, I’m sure. At University of Liverpool, where I work part-time, the CORE-OM system is used to assess outcomes, and my work has a high success rate. I have two teenage sons, and I’m an avid football fan and watch a lot of it. Recently I had the pleasure of working for Everton Football Club with some of their first team. I read a lot of non-fiction, watch Netflix, enjoy photography, walk our spaniel, Daisy, and exercise regularly. I got into counselling and therapy over 25 years ago when I decided to face my own personal problems. I needed a lot of help and to my surprise, and initial scepticism, it worked well for me. I feel transformed by this experience (it was long term and not always easy). From this experience I developed an endless fascination for psychotherapy. I was fortunate to have been a client to some very capable therapists, to whom I am more than grateful.

London

The Giles Foreman Centre for Acting is a dynamic professional acting studio based in Soho, in the heart of London; together with GFCA International Centres in Europe and USA. We are the leading Centre for Character Analysis. We provide distinctive, enjoyably rigorous and person-centred training for aspiring individuals and professional actors – taught by some of the leading acting, movement, voice, analysis, improvisation and camera-technique coaches available. If you choose to come to GFCA, we provide many ways to participate; regular part-time acting classes; short intensive workshops; one-to-one coaching; and 2-, 3- and 4-term full-time courses. Since March 2020 we have also embraced a wider, global community through online training, particularly in Character Analysis, Movement Psychology and advanced scene-study with Giles Foreman. People new to acting can discover the skills through our beginners’ classes and workshops, progressing onward part-time; or take our Foundation Acting ATCL Diploma over 3 terms (Saturday, and evening route). Those who think they may be ready – you may have have previous acting or performing experience, have studied at University, or come via other routes – audition for our 4-term 16-month advanced intensive Acting Diploma (Post-Graduate equivalent-level). Ours is amongst the most affordable courses of its kind in the country, and yet it is built around intensive teaching by renowned coaches, with small class sizes designed to develop people as thoroughly as possible. It is vigorous, focussed, demanding; based on a huge tradition, producing actors with skills tailored for the modern film, TV and theatre industries. Pro weekend session Professional actors come to develop their skills through acting classes and workshops with top practitioners from all over the world – and to create projects in both film and theatre. Actors can use studio coaches and facilities to prepare for auditions, and to develop in-depth characters for film roles that they have already secured. Alongside actor-training, GFCA offers casting and coaching-services, and scriptwriting development to the film industry. Due to our location in Soho, centre of the UK media industries, GFCA also offers many opportunities to meet casting directors, directors and producers through regular events; plays, showcases, castings, play-readings and Industry events. The acting philosophy at the studio was developed from that of the original Drama Centre London under Christopher Fettes, Yat Malmgren and Reuven Adiv, who together trained some of the leading UK actors of recent years – from Sean Connery, Anthony Hopkins, Colin Firth, Pierce Brosnan, Simon Callow, Geraldine James, Frances de la Tour – to Helen McCrory, Anne Marie Duff, Paul Bettany, Tara Fitzgerald, Lambert Wilson, Michael Fassbender, Tom Hardy, Santiago Cabrera, Gwendoline Christie, Ryan Gage and John Simm, to name but a few. Christopher Fettes, founder of Drama Centre London, holds the title of tutor-emeritus for our studio. The teaching process utilises a system of methods within Realism. We are one of the very few centres in the world providing detailed training courses in the extraordinary Laban/Jungian technique of Character Analysis / Movement Psychology developed by Yat Malmgren, to develop people’s psychological understanding both of themselves and the characters they are playing. Our holistic acting education is influenced by Stanislavski, as well as the philosophy of Lee Strasberg, Uta Hagen, Stella Adler and Sanford Meisner, creating actors capable of sophisticated, transformative performance. The Centre has relationships with other similar organisations around the world and offers many exchange programmes. In 2015 we opened our sister centre, GFCA Paris, joining GFCA International bases in other cities such as New York & LA; GFCA Luxembourg, and GFCA Zürich We have substantial expertise in delivering Corporate training both in the UK and abroad.
