What do you mean by practice?
As a child, did you play an instrument or an organized sport? If so, you certainly remember either being forced to practice—or looking forward to practice. Perhaps you have children of your own and are reliving the battle your parents faced!
Have you ever considered the importance behind practice?
Practice lives at the core of The Communication Gym. We understand that learning a skill requires practice at that skill. While learning about it is valuable, we know that doing it is essential. For example, learning about a musical instrument will not give you the ability to play it. Studying its history, parts, or how to clean it is one aspect of learning, but alone, they don’t give you the skill to make music.
Apply this thinking to other skills:
- Reading about soccer and practicing soccer
- Reading about karate and practicing karate
- Reading about multiplication and multiplying numbers
See where we’re going?
At The Gym, our members learn about a skill before they perform it. With the information and knowledge they need, members then spend most of their time practicing what they’ve learned.
Take the DISC. You may have already attended a training during which the presenter explained the 4 DISC communication styles, but did you put that knowledge into practice?
The Communication Gym’s members repeat and match different communication styles to be prepared for real-world situations.
If you haven’t already checked us out, take a look at our Professional Practice Groups, where our members practice together under the guidance of a coach in a supportive atmosphere.
We look forward to working out with you, at The Gym!
