Stage Fright

There is no more universally felt fear than that of public speaking; it’s often joked to be second only to death itself. This means at a funeral most would rather be in the casket than at the podium delivering the eulogy!

For over a thousand years, great speakers have shared their fears of speaking in public. Even during the golden age of public speaking, a pencil scrawl written by a man sentenced to be hanged read “I would rather face the gallows than speak to the crowd before it”.

Whether you’re saying “Hello” on a zoom call or standing up for a simple meeting, if you find you’re trembling before an audience in person or remote, big or small, in this one-off course you will learn:

• The background behind stage fright and the fear of public speaking
• How to manage anxieties before, during and after a speech
• Exercises to regulate your breathing, rumination and internal dialogue
• How to use your environment to your benefit to deliver a confident and compelling speech
• Skills specific to your particular needs and concerns

This course also comes with an optional bespoke report which outlines your current strengths, weaknesses and exercises for home practice.
