Want to improve your public speaking skills - be more genuine and less robotic?

* When pitching your ideas / leading demos or classes, do nerves and anxiety get in the way of a killer presentation?

* Want to build your career by speaking at conferences, but need a safe place to test the waters and get expert feedback?

* Do you find yourself in a new leadership position sweating bullets every time you have to address a group?

* The ability to connect with others in an authentic way is the key to being a great speaker - and it carries over into the success of your business and personal life.

In this class, we'll focus on DOING. Sure, we'll cover expert strategies for being a better speaker, but the main aim of this workshop is to get you on your feet and identify what is getting in the way of you being your best - live - in the moment.

The limited class size of 8 attendees assures that each person has the opportunity to articulate their specific goals around public speaking and give a 3 min (or less) minute pitch / speech to get expert feedback in a supportive environment.  

You will leave this workshop having had the physical experience of being in front of a group and gain valuable insight into how you can be a more powerful communicator.

Preparation: You can bring your short pitch / speech, but it's not required - you'll have time to generate a little content if you don't have anything prepared.
