Voice training workshop

Trainer: Marie Trappl, www.marietrappl.com

Max. no. of participants: 20

Use voice and breathing techniques to gain confidence when presenting your work:

  • Strengthen their confidence & presence with vocal training and breathing techniques
  • Refine clarity & enunciation to excite with your topic
  • Develop self-assurance to engage in presentations and conversations

“There are so many people who have fascinating things to say but are too nervous to present them to others. Communication does actually consist of 80 % body language and voice – so if you speak as stiff as a poker, you risk losing your audience.

However, if you speak passionately, nuanced and authentically, you will make yourself be heard. Then you can even afford to say ‘er’ once in a while. If your voice transports your personality and enthusiasm, your audience will be all ears.

With carefully selected voice exercises, breathing training and speaking techniques I will get you there.”
