Our most recent EFIT and FIT was held in Flower Mound, TX from April 17^th through the 24^th. 

FIT seminars train individuals in the skill set necessary to facilitate speaking and motivational engagements that illuminate limiting beliefs and preconceived notions, and challenge attendees to think beyond self-imposed boundaries and redefine how they approach life's obstacles.  The seminar is 4 full-packed days.  EFIT sessions encompass all elements of the FIT with the added benefit of facilitation training.  EFIT graduates are certified to train and certify FIT students.  

We had an exceedingly engaged group of individuals that truly did an amazing job.  EFIT students had the incredible opportunity to receive personalized coaching with Krish Dhanam, who was individually mentored by Zig Ziglar himself, and is now the corporation's number-one communicator and public speaker.  Krish has traveled around the world speaking before audiences of all sizes.  EFIT students were taught techniques in presentation, posture, gesture, inflection, connecting and creating rapport with the audience, and overall intent of communication. Krish conducted one-on-one coaching sessions with students, allowing them to video record themselves and review the presentations. Having one-on-one coaching and review from Krish Dhanam is, without a doubt, an experience that all students will remember and cherish, and will assist them in becoming powerful communicators.  One student said, "Krish was amazing... the time spent with me has changed the way I will communicate for the rest of my life.  When you hear him speak, you just feel inspired."

EFIT students also had the opportunity to spend time with special guest speakers including: Tammy Kling, author of the Compass (and now motion picture) as well as 29 other self-motivation and improvement books; Jeff Crilley, 25-year veteran of TV news reporting in Dallas; Thomas Niesen, founder of Acuity Systems Inc., an expert on brand sales; and Richard Nongard, renowned hypnotherapist.  Students were in awe and completely engaged with the presenters.  In addition to the presentations, EFIT students benefited from individual conversation with our presenters and gained their knowledge, experience, and guidance.

Throughout the days, students experienced many firsts, including walking on fire, walking on broken glass, breaking boards and bricks, needle work, arrow breaking, steel bar bending, breath work, and low ropes experiences.  EFIT sessions are ultimately impactful because EFIT students arrive 4 days prior to FIT students and attend as participants, and then have the opportunity to engage as facilitators with the newly arriving FIT students.  Students attended from all across the globe, with representation from Central America and Australia.

Nightly, attendees built-up the enthusiasm for the Fire Walk; they learned building techniques, philosophy of fire, tending and caring for the fire, preparing a walk, facilitating a walk, and due care.  Naturally, students had the opportunity to walk on fire.  One FIT student stated, "For me, walking on fire was like truly being a new person.  I felt like a new man with a new outlook on life.  It's funny, right after I walked, I just wanted to jump into life and do all those things that I have always dreamed about but found a thousand excuses or reasons not to try.  Well not anymore, I'm going for it."

FIT/EFIT was an amazing time.  Congratulations to the graduates, and welcome to the FIRE family.  For a daily account of FIT and EFIT, please visit our Firewalking Facebook page to read more and see more photos of the event.  'Like' us, to see video events.

      "The fire walk, it was great, I did it twice.

      It was so fabulous, it was so empowering,

      I'm telling you the power of your mind, you can use it to change        your life.  If you can walk on fire you can do anything.

      I dare you."
