About this Event

This session is a free taster for our full Public Speaking Course. You’ll get to experience the style, exercises and atmosphere firsthand before deciding whether deeper training is right for you.
The workshop stands alone - you’ll still leave with practical tools, insights and the option to practice doing some speaking (if you wish) - and if you feel drawn to continue, attendees receive an exclusive discount towards the full programme (normally £498).
There’s no commitment required - just come and see what it’s like!
Group Size

We typically have around 12-15 attendees per group.

Location

Old Diorama Studios, 201 Drummond Street Regent's Place, NW1 3FE

**Please note: These classes are designed for participants aged 18+ who are fluent in English. A good level of English is necessary to fully take part and benefit from the session**

Workshop overview:
The workshop is all practice-based, starting with warm-ups, improvised speaking games and opportunities to deliver off-the cuff speeches.

Group discussions will take place to learn more about why we struggle with public speaking, and what solutions we can use to help us.

Our principles are grounded in authenticity. Our approach to helping people overcome their fears is done through encouraging participants to drop the personas they wear in their day-to-day lives in order to express themselves with honesty, and discover their natural speaking style.

We’re big fans of embracing vulnerability and strongly believe it’s a strength, not a weakness. Only through vulnerability do we drop our guard and communicate in a way that truly connects to others.

The Session will include:

- Why we struggle with nervousness when speaking in public

- Our approach for embracing and overcoming these feelings

- Practical techniques to help you come out of your head and speak using your intuition

- A chance to practice delivering a short impromptu speech

- And much more!

About our teachers:

We have been running workshops since 2014. We have trained 10,000+ people. Our teachers compete in public speaking tournaments, have a mixture of traditional and improv acting training, studied various meditation and mindfulness techniques and are passionate about human psychology and behaviour.

Testimonials from past students:

Definitely the best public speaking workshop I have been on! It’s much more than just improving your public speaking skills, it takes a deeper look into the subject, in terms of fears, and humanity. Mike’s approach and techniques is really about to gain a deep understanding to unlock your authentic self. It was transformative! Highly recommended! - Kristīne Šica

Highly recommend this course! The teaching and approach is incredible and it works! I come so far in so many ways during the course of these workshops and been an incredible investment. Cheers Mike & Team - Jezz Williams

More on Our Philosophy:

Our mission is bigger than just helping people become better at public speaking, our mission is to help create a more transparent and connected society.

Our society celebrates extrinsic success; confidence is presented to be smooth, slick, suave and charismatic. Because of this we neglect parts of our personality, our feelings, our idiosyncrasies, our uniqueness, our quirkiness and ultimately our vulnerability in pursuit of becoming confident, according to what society deems as confidence. However, we risk becoming ‘well-rehearsed robots’ and not sincere individuals, who aren’t afraid of expressing their humanness. Our approach offers a very non-conventional way of become an empowering and inspiring communicator.
