To Japan and Back: Insights on My TWI Journey


Senior Master Trainer Patrick Graupp’s professional career has mirrored the journey of the TWI program in many ways. Hear Pat’s insights on TWI in Japan and learn how his early experiences as a trainer there shaped his passion for TWI. After working with TWI in Japan for many years, Pat returned to the U.S. and became a pioneer in reintroducing TWI in the U.S.  The lessons he learned along the way will enlighten experienced practitioners and TWI beginners alike.

SPECIAL APPEARANCE: Patrick's mentor in Japan, Mr. Kazuhiko Shibuya, will address the Summit with Patrick translating to English. Mr. Shibuya learned TWI in the early 1960s from the first Japanese Masters! Don't miss your chance to hear this historically significant event that ties together TWI's past with today!
