You will collect motion data, train a machine learning model to detect patterns, then program the micro:bit to run that model. Micro:bit CreateAI is a free, browser-based tool that lets you train a micro:bit to recognise your physical movements (clapping, waving, jumping, etc.) using the device's accelerometer.

A one-day event for men over 35. Expert talks, workshops, free blood test, stress management and a written plan for the rest of your year. The One Day That Changes Everything! You’re busy. You’re tired. You know you should be looking after yourself better, but there’s always something else that comes first... The business, the kids, the to-do list that never ends! Renaissance Man Live is a full day designed for men over 35 who are ready to stop putting themselves last. No fluff. No motivational waffle. Just practical, expert-led education on the things that actually matter: your health, your energy, your hormones, your mindset, and your plan for the rest of the year. This isn’t a seminar where you sit and listen for eight hours. You’ll be involved and challenged, and you’ll walk out with a written action plan specific to you. What’s Included in Your Ticket ✔ Expert-led morning sessions covering nutrition, training, hormones, energy and mindset ✔ A complimentary men’s health blood test from our founding partner Voy (worth £35+) ✔ Your printed blood test results, reviewed on the day by Voy’s Director of Men’s Health ✔ Afternoon workshops including breathwork and ice bath experience ✔ A personal action plan workbook – you’ll leave with a clear plan for the rest of 2026 ✔ Access to the Renaissance Man community of like-minded men ✔ Tea, coffee and refreshments throughout the day Your Free Blood Test – Presented by Voy Every ticket includes a complimentary men’s health blood test from Voy, the UK’s leading men’s health clinic. Your finger-prick test kit will be posted to you before the event, so your results are ready on the day. On the day, Voy’s Director of Men’s Health will deliver a keynote session breaking down what your results actually mean and how you can keep your hormones at peak performance. You’ll also see how your numbers compare to the room average . No one is asked to share their results publicly. This alone is worth the price of the ticket. Most men have never had a proper blood panel done. Now you’ll know exactly where you stand – and what to do about it. How the Day Works Morning (10:00 AM – 1:00 PM): You’ll be seated at round tables of 10 for an interactive morning of expert-led sessions. This isn’t death-by-PowerPoint – you’ll use your phone to participate in live Q&A, work through exercises in your personal workbook, and hear from Jay and guest speakers on the practical changes that move the needle on your health, energy and focus. Jeff from Voy delivers his keynote and live blood test reveal during the morning session. Lunch (1:00 PM – 1:45 PM) : Refuel and connect with the other men in the room. This is where the real conversations happen. Afternoon (1:45 PM – 4:00 PM) : You’ll rotate through breathwork sessions and an ice bath experience on the Leicester Tigers rugby pitch. Between rotations, you’ll have the chance to speak privately with Voy’s health team about your blood test results. The day wraps with your completed personal action plan – a written blueprint for the next six months. Close (4:00 PM – 4:30 PM) : Final session, key takeaways and next steps. Who Is This For? Renaissance Man Live is for men over 35 who are done reading about change and ready to make it. You might be a business owner, a professional, a dad, or all three. You don’t need to be a gym regular or a health expert; you just need to be willing to invest one day in yourself. If you’ve been telling yourself, “I’ll sort my health out when things calm down,” this is your wake-up call. Things aren’t going to calm down! But you can get sharper, more energised and more intentional about how you spend your time – and it starts here. The Venue Leicester Tigers Rugby Club is one of the most iconic sporting venues in the UK. You’ll have the run of their event spaces for the morning sessions and access to the rugby pitch itself for the afternoon ice bath and breathwork experience. It’s a world-class setting for a world-class day. Free parking is available on site. The venue is a 10-minute drive from Leicester city centre and easily accessible from the M1 (Junction 21).

His no-nonsense, practical approach to health, training, nutrition and mindset has helped thousands of men over 35 take back control of their lives. Renaissance Man Live is the in-person extension of that mission – one day, in one room, with the information and the plan you need to make the rest of 2026 count. Renaissance Man Live is proudly presented by Voy, the UK’s leading men’s health clinic.
