Own the Stage: How to Use Acting, Movement and Vocal Techniques to Captivate and Inspire Audiences

If you want to truly stand out as a speaker with your delivery, you need to move beyond standard speaking techniques. Acting, voice and movement techniques – adapted so that anyone can learn them quickly and easily – will help you become an unforgettable speaker and hold the audience in the palm of your hand. In this session, led by 28-year speaking and performance coach and theater professional Jonathan Bender, you’ll get introduced to trade secrets that performers use to uplevel their self-expression, confidence and presence. Don’t worry: performance techniques don’t make you lose authenticity – in fact, they help you grow it.
