Voice, Speech &
Presence
To work on the voice is to work on the entirety of you. Your body. Your breath. Your voice. Your speech and your presence. This class equips you with strategies to root you physically, breathe deeper and deliver with your authentic voice. Students will leave class with a blueprint for their own practice.
Public Speaking
This class allows the student to practice
speaking in front of a group of like-minded peers in an atmosphere of curiosity and respect. Practice speeches include personal stories, short poems, humorous stories and anything the student wants to bring to the table. We will also roleplay presentations, interviews and public speeches. Students will leave class with greater confidence in their voice, their presentation skills and their ability to speak in front of an audience.
