Talking Pooh - A Discussion with Andy Gibney
Manage episode 395717014 series 2286530
Unified Fighting Systems founder, AG Martial Arts Centre owner, therapist and author, Andy Gibney joins the show for a look back at a childhood favourite. Taking the "Everything is Martial Arts" concept in an interesting direction, we look at the gentle world of A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh and discuss its influence and connections to martial arts.
Far from living up to the moniker "a bear with very little brain", Pooh might be a childhood gateway to critical thinking. Whereas owl presents us with the model of the flawed teacher. With fear being such an important area of understanding in self-protection, Piglet provides a certain perspective. Meanwhile Tigger and Eeyore provide us with opposite extremes of emotion whilst also potentially showing the benefits of enthusiasm and stoicism. There's a lot to unpack!
Music for the Outro:
"Titans" by Cold Cinema
