About this episode

Albert Batalla shares advice he would give to his younger self as a coach and professor.

After our first conversation, the authenticity of Albert Batalla led me to define him as the “Michael Johnson of motor skills learning, training... and life”. We met again for a second conversation about the advice he would give to his younger self at the start of his journey as a coach and professor. Next, he shares his answer —in Catalan. You can also know it in English in the YouTube video of the episode .
