Presentation Classes & Workshops

Few fears are as common, or as gripping as the fear of public speaking. But from annual reports to book reports, boardrooms to classrooms or even dining rooms, effective communication is one of the most crucial elements of your personal and professional development. So how do you go from panicked to poised, and train the butterflies in your stomach to make your message soar?

"Spoken Communication for Cowards" is a great first step. Not your traditional “Public Speaking 101,” this unique interactive program helps you recognize the effects of your nervousness, and how they affect the way your message is delivered and received, in an environment that is relaxed, supportive, and fun. Together we will begin discovering and developing your unique presentation style, transforming anxiety into enthusiasm, and panic into passion.

This class will NOT make you fearless. No class can! It will, however, start you on the road to becoming a more confident, engaging, and effective presenter.
