Larger than life

Anthony Robbins (Tony) is a recognized authority on the psychology of leadership, negotiations, organizational turnaround and peak performance. Since his debut as a motivational speaker 24 years ago in the U.S., Tony has inspired millions of people through his live seminars, books and tapes, making him a legend in the industry of personal and professional development.

Best known for his life-changing books (Awaken the Giant Within, Get the Edge, Personal Power) and courses as well as his Unleash the Power Within (UPW) seminar, Tony shows people how to access the right physiological and mental state for peak performance. This is demonstrated most vividly in the famous UPW firewalk, where participants literally storm across a bed of burning coals shouting ‘YES! ’ as an up-front rally cry to conquer their fears. The founders of Yes Group London and many of its members have experienced this firewalk and the exhilaration that comes from taking a responsible risk and stretching one’s boundaries.

The firewalk is a metaphor for the possibility of deep and lasting change regardless of age or physical fitness level. Handicapped people who have lost the use of their legs have even done the firewalk using their hands. Literally larger than life, Tony can transfix ten thousand people in a conference setting with inspirational teaching that somehow speaks to each person in the room, challenging them to look within and fulfil their potential. On stage, he has been known to lead workshop sessions lasting four, five or even six hours without a break. His energy levels are surpassed only by his charisma and phenomenal knowledge of human motivation. Tony practices what he preaches. He is the owner of seven successful companies, ranging from the obvious motivation and education sectors to toys and books, nutritional products, and social research. His non-profit Anthony Robbins Foundation provides assistance to the homeless, the elderly and inner-city youth. Every year he runs a ‘Basket Brigade’ that feeds more than one million people across nine countries. He constantly creates new possibilities, stretching himself and those who admire and aspire to emulate him. Tony has addressed the Harvard Business School and the British Parliament, served as a consultant for members of two royal families, Fortune 500 CEO’s, members of the U.S. congress, leading sports figures and personally coached three U.S. presidents.
