Unless you’re an actor, comedian, musician or juggler, you probably don’t see yourself as a “performer.” But the truth is, if you ever have to stand up in a conference room and give a PowerPoint presentation or make a speech in front of your team, you are performing.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

 

• Bring the best version of yourself to every room.
• Think like an improviser so you feel more grounded, adaptable and positive.
• Know the who, what and why of your presentation and audience.
• Conquer your stage fright.
• Handle mistakes, mishaps and technical glitches with grace.
• Alleviate stuttering, stammering, speaking too quickly, being monotone, poor pacing and shifting weight.
• Use physical, vocal and mental warm-up exercises to feel centered, alert and prepared.
• Take creative risks.
