Bruce Mason Centre: Ant Middleton – Mind over Muscle Tour

Ant Middleton is bringing his popular speaking tour to Australia and New Zealand this July! The best-selling author will lead audiences through a motivational journey of personal growth and positivity led by his mantra of ‘Mind Over Muscle’.

Best known as the Chief Instructor on Channel 7’s hit series SAS Australia, Ant has become a much-loved master of survival and endurance on and off the screen, spurred by his formidable career in the UK’s elite special forces, including the Marines, 9 Parachute Squadron and Special Boat Service.

Since 2017, Ant has regularly sold out venues across the UK with his Mind Over Muscle live show. Now, for the first time, Australian audiences will get to meet the man behind SAS Australia. In his first-ever ANZ tour, Ant will tell his story — giving a glimpse into his life in the military, his training techniques, and the experiences that have helped him deal with any situation that life has thrown at him. He will give his assessment on the first season of SAS Australia and talk about his battle to overcome Mount Everest and the many other challenges he has faced.

Ahead of the speaking tour, Ant Middleton said: "Through my time as SAS Australia’s Chief Instructor, I have come to love this country and feel very much at home here. I can’t wait to go from the screen to the stage and be able to interact with Australian audiences when I take my Mind Over Muscle tour to Canberra, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne this July.

Positivity forms the basis of my ethos, and through my live shows, I hope to empower people to harness the power of a positive mindset, goal setting and planning to be the best possible versions of themselves.

After a year like no other —filled with countless challenges following Covid —I look forward to sharing techniques and experiences that have helped me deal with any situation life has thrown at me."
