Enjoy public speaking? Are you kidding? Surely it’s everyone’s worst fear!
Wondering why you easily talk to people one-to-one, tell great stories at the pub, and are delightful at dinner parties… but when it comes to certain meetings or presentations…
… it’s all wobbly voice, butterflies in the stomach, racing thoughts…
Your natural poise and good humour are there, indeed they’re fighting to get out… they just need a little help.
Unlocking your natural poise and good humour in front of an audience has two key elements:-
1. The How – dealing with the electric charge of speaking to a group – one human to many humans
2. The What – structure, storytelling and language patterns – knowing what to say
As the world speeds up, thinking on your feet becomes one of the most valuable skills a person can have. I wanted to put all the magic I see in my improv comedy classes into a club focused on one person addressing the audience.
I’m cooking up a unique blend of voice science, psychology, and acting and improvising techniques and dosing them out over a 4-week term in London Bridge, to get you out of the isolated worry, and into a world where you command the stage with unforgettable warmth and magnetic joy!
These skills are the key to being your best, cleverest, most naturally confident self in presentations, meetings and dealing with questions off-the-cuff.
Access your creativity, stage presence, lightning-quick listening skills , easy-going warmth and being the human – relaxed but poised, ready with a quip and delighting everyone with the way you see the world.
That’s why The Rhetoric IS the best fun public speaking club in London.
Next 4-week term starts:
Wednesday, 4th March
7-9pm
The Kings Arms, Borough, London SE1 1YT
£122
“Oh, she’s a natural,” they’ll say in the office, as you cackle to yourself remembering how you learned it all while crying laughing and having a brilliant evening with your new improv friends.
