1
Hi, I'm Theo van den Bruyke, Editor -in -Chief of Esquire UK.
2
And I'm Tom Holland and we're going to be talking today about some things that make me feel good. So Tom, Golf.
3
Why golf?
4
I like golf just because it's incredibly humbling.
5
Right.
6
You know, no matter how hard you practice or how often you play, you can still have days where it feels like you don't or have never played before.
7
Sure.
8
And for me, I have a really overactive brain.
9
-Right.
10
-Which I think has served me well as a creative, but sometimes I need things to just help me calm down.
11
Have you ever shot a hole -in -one?
12
-I have done.
13
I've had two hole -in -ones.
14
-Have you?
15
Really?
16
-The first one, unfortunately, I was by myself.
17
-Right.
18
So no one believes me, which is really unfortunate.
19
And then the second one, I was actually playing in a match against a scratch golfer.
20
- Okay.
21
- And I went against his judgment on what club to hit.
22
- Right.
23
It went in.
24
That's quite amazing.
25
I mean, people kind of run for their mental health, right?
26
Because it's easy.
27
You can throw on some trainers, go out and say that, like, to play golf for your mental health.
28
you need a I was going to say a pitch.
29
- You can say that.
30
A course.
31
- Of course.
32
You need a course.
33
You need all of the kit and everything.
34
How often do you find yourself able to play?
35
I try and play as much as I can.
36
If I'm not working and I have nothing to do, I really do play every day.
37
That's quite a commitment.
38
I wouldn't say golf is good for my mental health.
39
Right because I'm quite a hothead and I can get quite angry on the golf course.
40
Making me nervous about you showing me up.
41
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
42
And I can get really angry.
43
But no, I play with my friends.
44
I have a great group of guys that I've played with for you know, 10 years plus.
45
Right.
46
And some of them are much better than me, some of them are sort of the same level as me.
47
And then there's a couple guys who know exactly who I'm talking about who are f.
48
And, no, I love it.
49
I absolutely love it.
50
- Okay, let me see what you're working with.
51
- Tell me about me.
52
Okay, come on.
53
Here we go.
54
It's the 18th hole.
55
- Right, so am I aiming for a hole in once?
56
- Yes, yeah, yeah.
57
Lost.
58
putt to win the Masters, which is next weekend.
59
Already looking a bit left, yeah, there you go.
60
Okay, any tips?
61
Try and close your hips a little bit.
62
So like, there you go, that's a better point.
63
Now I've touched it, does that mean it doesn't count?
64
That's okay.
65
You see how your club is closed?
66
You let go of it?
67
That's...
68
-Square to your stance.
69
-Oh, interesting.
70
That should be a better shot.
71
Okay, and then I'm looking at the hole, trying to aim up.
72
-Just look at the ball.
73
-Okay.
74
and don't even look at where it goes.
75
- Oh, really?
76
- Yeah.
77
That feels counterintuitive.
78
That's better.
79
Oh!
80
Mwah -mwah!
81
If you hit it just a little softer, that'll go in.
82
Okay, I'm enjoying these tips though, right.
83
So, That's better.
84
Close the face a little bit, now you've overcompensated.
85
There you go.
86
And a little softer and it'll go in.
87
Okay, I dread to think about this stances looking on camera.
88
No, you look a little bit like you're taking a poo. But you're okay.
89
Three, two, one.
90
Come on, Tao.
91
-That's good.
92
-Yes!
93
Tom.
94
-There we go.
95
-There we go.
96
-Didn't need any teaching.
97
-Lessons for feeling good and playing golf.
98
Thank you for that.
99
-I think that was kind of a perfect ending to the video.
100
-That's actually quite amazing.
101
What a dream.
102
You don't even need to see me hit it now.
103
I don't want to after you've drained it.
104
-No, okay, but you train me.
105
That's good.
106
That's the point.
107
-That was great.
108
You were a good listener.
109
-You took the direction on really nicely.
110
-Oh, I appreciate that.
111
Okay, so you're not doing the poo stance.
112
I'm not as tall as you though.
113
- There you go.
114
Sir.
115
If I miss all of these, I'm going to get crucified.
116
There we go.
117
I noticed your follow through.
118
That was good.
119
- Thank you.
120
- But you keep going.
121
Yeah, it's just like you kind of want to point at the target.
122
So wherever the club ends up.
123
Like if I...
124
If I put the club, if I followed through to here, it's going to go here.
125
The chances are the club will go left.
126
Aha.
127
So you kind of want to always point at the target.
128
It looks like Tom and I got the same score.
129
Well I missed that one on purpose.
130
Do you have any tap dancing experience?
131
No!
132
Okay, tap dancing is all about being able to transfer your weight from foot to foot.
133
Okay.
134
Right, so you want to be able to kind of...
135
Like a footballer?
136
Like a footballer or a boxer.
137
If you were boxing, you'd want to be able to change your weight.
138
So the first thing you're going to do is stamp.
139
And then you're going to pull your toe back.
140
That's the first step.
141
- Okay, so.
142
- Okay.
143
No, no, no. So stamp, pull your toes up.
144
That's it.
145
Got it.
146
Okay, so the next thing is...
147
Oh my god.
148
No, I'm joking, I'm joking, I'm joking.
149
This is hard stamp heal - Click, pop.
150
- No. Stamp.
151
God, I sound like one of my teachers already.
152
No, do it again.
153
- We'll see this.
154
- Stamp, pick.
155
- Okay.
156
Hop, step.
157
You're very patient, Tom.
158
I got it.
159
I think we do this once more and then we stop because I'm not going to get it.
160
Okay.
161
Bye.
162
Okay.
163
Hop Tell me about movement.
164
It's really important.
165
Why is movement important to you?
166
I think because I've always played characters that have A physicality is a big part of telling that story.
167
When you play Spider -Man and you put a mask on, you don't have your face to be able to convey to the audience what's going on.
168
- Yeah.
169
- So you have to find a way to physically kind of tell that story.
170
And sometimes with Spider -Man it can be as simple as cocking the head, usually tells the people that he's confused, you know, surprise is just like lifting your shoulders up a little bit.
171
Right.
172
And doing that now, in regular clothes, feels really hammy.
173
Right.
174
But when you do it in the suit, It really translates really well.
175
So it's almost like mine.
176
It's a little bit like mine, yeah.
177
Right.
178
You were saying there's something about like that I have perfect turnout.
179
That is actually incredible to be fair.
180
Thanks.
181
Something I've done right.
182
Can you plie from there?
183
How do we plie?
184
The plie is just down.
185
And then if you were gonna grand plié, you would go all the way down.
186
Okay, I'll move this.
187
All these shorts are gonna rip.
188
I like that.
189
Oh.
190
But you can pick your heels up off the floor with a grand plieu.
191
There you go, yeah that looks really good.
192
That's quite Spider -Man.
193
- That's quite impressive.
194
Yeah, you take it one step further and go down.
195
So, Tom, skincare routines, do you have one?
196
Yes and no. If I'm working, I have an amazing makeup artist who takes fantastic care of my skin.
197
And if I'm not working, you know, just a nice little splash of water in the morning is kind of...
198
And I do moisturize and wear SPF.
199
But that's kind of about it.
200
Is there any specific moisturizer you go for?
201
Yes.
202
I wouldn't be able to tell you the name of it, though.
203
And I don't buy it.
204
My lady is in charge of buying all of those creams and stuff.
205
I just.. one of the benefits is that I steal all of her stuff.
206
I was gonna say, so they're not your specific creams that you're using?
207
No, and they're probably far more expensive than I think they are.
208
You know, I'm probably putting far too much moisturizer on. than I should be.
209
Other than tap and golf, is there anything in your daily routine you do to make sure you can take care of yourself?
210
Probably just daily exercise, to be honest.
211
I've been very bad recently.
212
I've been traveling a lot, so my exercise has taken a hit.
213
But if I'm at home and I have a good schedule going, I'll exercise every day without fail.
214
What's that look like?
215
Depends on what I'm doing.
216
You know, if I'm making a movie, then I'm probably doing like more fitness -based stuff to try
217
and make sure I can keep my energy up throughout the day.
218
If prepping for a movie.
219
For Spider -Man or The Odyssey, it's all about trying to put on as much weight as possible.
220
So it kind of varies from day to day, really.
221
What are the things in your life that help keep you grounded?
222
Definitely my family and my friends.
223
You know, I'm very lucky to have a group of friends that will always be incredibly honest and are not yes people.
224
That has been something for me that has really, really helped me, especially as my life changed as quickly as it did.
225
But yeah, I'd say my friends and my family.
226
If you could go back and give your younger advice, what would it be?
227
To be perfectly honest with you, I am so happy with where I'm at in my life right now.
228
I probably wouldn't change anything.
229
You know, like I've made mistakes and all that sort of stuff, but I've learned from all of them.
230
So I think I'd probably tell myself to take more holidays.
231
as a younger person.
232
Maybe go travelling actually.
233
My cousin is just about to go travelling through Asia.
234
And I really wish when I was sort of 17, 18, that I had done something like that, like thrown a backpack on and travelled somewhere.
235
Um, So maybe that's what I would have told myself.
236
Is there one destination you've not been to that you'd really kind of make a beeline for?
237
I mean, I've been to Japan a bunch of times for work, but never for pleasure.
238
And I would love to go and explore Japan.
239
Quickfire round.
240
Morning cleanse or water rinse?
241
Water rinse.
242
Same daily routine or switch it up?
243
I probably would have to say switch it up, only because I'm terrible at keeping to a routine.
244
SPF only on sunny days or every single day?
245
Every day, SPF.
246
Sounds like a...
247
- That's a self -care routine to me.
248
- Yeah, but that's very simple.
249
That's like moisturizer and sun cream rolled into one.
250
- Got it.
251
Serum or moisturizer?
252
I don't know the difference.
253
- Lifting weights or cardio?
254
- I prefer to lift weights, but cardio is better for you.
255
- Early bird or night owl?
256
- I would say I'm more of a night owl.
257
I am pretty good at getting up at a good time, but I would much rather stay in bed.
258
What's an average bedtime?
259
Average bedtime?
260
I think about 11, maybe?
261
Average wake -up time?
262
7. - That's pretty good.
263
- I'm quite strict to that.
264
- Yoga or run?
265
- Yoga chicken salad or Big Mac.
266
I actually don't like Big Mac.
267
That's not what I order from McDonald's.
268
I would rather a salad.
269
Hot or cold shower?
270
A hot shower.
271
Sauna or steam?
272
Sauna.
273
Wimbledon World Cup.
274
Bye.
275
What, would I like to win either of them?
276
I mean, it'd have to be the World Cup.
277
Really?
278
Yeah, because, you know, to play as a team would be really special, but Wimbledon is
279
so special and maybe one of the greatest sporting events of all time but then so is the World Cup.
280
I'd have to say, especially because the World Cup is this year, I'm gonna put it out there and say the World Cup.
281
Thank you Tom.
282
Thank you.
283
Okay.
284
Oh, that's the microphone.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
