SailingExperience
From pier · to the boardroom
A sailing event led by a 3× Olympian, for leaders who want to feel what it means to lead under pressure, and bring that back to the boardroom.
Leadership trained only in meeting rooms breaks at the first headwind.

to sail with Bruno
High performance
starts at sea
In a regatta, you can't outsource the decision. The wind shifts, a competitor crosses, the crew hesitates, and you have 5 seconds to lead.
The Sailing Experience is not a boat trip. It's applied leadership, in an environment where no one's ego survives more than 20 minutes. And Bruno translates every manoeuvre into principles that work on Monday morning.
It's not a team-building event. It's an unforgettable day that your team will remember and talk about for a long time.
A complete
experience

"Bruno is a super passionate coach as well as a high-level sailor himself. His experience in both the Laser sailing and venue analysis helped me a lot during my Rio Olympic Games. All my Chinese teammates love to work with him as he not only brings knowledge but also love to the sport."
"If there is one man who has dedicated his life to understanding fitness in the sport of sailing, it's Bruno Fontes. He keeps it simple, fun, and most importantly, effective. I can say that he has played a significant role in my sailing career."
"Bruno isn't just a great athlete and coach, he is one of the guys with more knowledge and expertise in the world when you are talking about fitness and hiking hard on a boat. Today we are working together in the Virtual Coaching program and I have improved a lot."
