More people fear the idea of speaking in public over actual death. (!)
But I want you to imagine having a straightforward process at the ready when it comes to delivering your work aloud.
Public speaking doesn't have to look like a fear worse than death.
Rather, it can look like:
1
Rehearsing effectively and efficiently
Knowing how to shape your vocal quality, strengthen your diction, and enhance the experience you want for your audience.
2
Establishing genuine connection with the audience
Knowing how to make your material sound like you,never salesy nor sparse.
3
Befriending your nerves
Knowing how to soothe your butterflies and step into your most confident, commanding, effortless self.
4
Not spiraling
Knowing how to celebrate your performance and (peacefully) evaluate for next time.
So how does this all work?
Let's break it down.
What exactly do you teach?
Using tenets of acting technique, I teach practical tools on how to speak with presence, command a room, engage your listeners, practice efficiently, and feel confident sharing your work in front of any-sized audience. These tools were developed by me in my career as a theater, film and television actor, in which I refined the process of preparing various kinds of material on my own to delivering it with spontaneity, effortlessness, and care.

We meet every week for 6 weeks on Zoom.
