What happens in the Public Speaking class?
This fun six-week evening class will leave participants rearing to deliver their presentations or talks. Our techniques are a little less orthodox because at Act The Maggot we believe in having fun while we learn. Think Toastmasters. We work on the message, the body language, communication, vocal production, breathing and relaxation. As with all of our courses, we incorporate some mindfulness tools. Participants report back that they find them beneficial and easy to do at home.
“I found it very useful in giving me techniques to use when I am faced with public speaking. It was also very beneficial from a mindfulness perspective, learning breathing techniques, that can be used in everyday life.”
