Motov8ing Boys
Tuesday, 20 August, 2024 @ 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Motov8ing Boys is an event for boys aged 11-17 and their parents.
Do you worry about your boys attitude & behaviour?
Does he need help building courage, confidence & resilience?
Does your son struggle to care about or see his potential?
Or are you just tired of repeating yourself over and over again only to get the same result, or even worse…no response at all?
One of the biggest deficits seen in young people today is a lack of social & emotional intelligence. This can lead to a whole range of problems with their personal development at home, at school & with friends both on & off line.
If you can relate to some or maybe even all of these then the Motov8ing Boys event is for you and it’s time you met John McMahon.
Who is John McMahon from Motov8 aka The Rev?
John or Rev as he’s more commonly known is a youth specialist with over 30 years experience working with young people in schools, sporting clubs & families across Australia, NZ & the UK. Through these events, seminars & talks delivered in schools, Rev has helped influence thousands of young people to make smarter more informed decisions.
Whilst the cliché statement “Boys will be boys” is often used to explain away & excuse why boys do silly things, as a personal coach/mentor and parent himself, Rev would rather see this statement reflect a different sentiment. Rev and his company, Motov8, aim to inspire boys to choose to become high achieving young men rather than just accept what others say they will be.
Rev’s communication style is direct, hard hitting, relative & impactful on both the boys & their parents. He’s as direct as they come but it’s his raw vulnerability that earns him the right to say what needs to be said to both boys & parents.
Why This Event – Why Motov8ing Boys?
Motov8ing Boys’ is an event for Boys aged 11-17 and their parents; the goal is to help them to understand the power of a positive attitude, how to develop confidence, how to change destructive behaviour, how to identify personal potential & understand the importance of self-respect & respecting others.
As parents it is our role to guide and advise our sons but it’s this same reason they don’t want to listen. Sometimes the same message communicated in a different way, and by a different person, is all that’s needed to start to turn things around.
This event gives parents the opportunity to expose their sons to real advice about life in terms of when the ‘rubber hits the road’. Rev engages young males through the use of motorcycles & draws from his years of rider experience to help them to navigate the twists, turns & obstacles that inevitably come up on the ride of life.
