About

Radu Robutu

I’m Radu. My work draws on several parts of my life that have gradually grown together.

I have practised Ki-Aikido for around 35 years and taught it for almost 30, together with Shin-Shin-Toitsu-Do, or Japanese Yoga. I also bring many years of experience in education, leadership and working with people in challenging situations.

How I work with people

Over these years I have developed a particular way of working with people – one I never consciously set out to create.

When I work with someone, especially through physical interaction, I often sense quite quickly how they organise themselves: how they respond to pressure, where they create unnecessary tension, what they try to control, where they hesitate, what their intention is. Often this mirrors how they deal with situations in their everyday or professional life.

So my intention is not to give people answers.

Usually they come with a question – about leadership, conflict, confidence, pressure, a decision, or feeling stuck. I’m interested in going beyond that first question and helping them discover what lies underneath it.
