Public speaking consistently ranks high on the top ten lists of our most common fears, yet it is something many of us must do in both our professional and personal lives. This seminar will provide participants with a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for facing and conquering fears, or growing the skills they already have.
Learn the who, what, why, when, and how of public speaking as well as the importance of language, delivery, and visual aids. Take advantage of this opportunity to practice public speaking skills by doing two in-class presentations and mindfulness and awareness techniques that will allow learners to quell any lingering panic they might feel. Students will take the first steps in moving past paralysis and into the pleasure that public speaking offers. Some homework between classes will be required.
