DIction, drama; the voice towards sensitive eloquence

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Professional actor and tenor singer who studied drama in Paris at the Cours Jean-Laurent Cochet and Fabrice Luchini, offers his services in particular a real old-fashioned theater course with the technique DE LA FABLE DE Jean De La Fontaine and the study of classical texts in order to obtain a beautiful phrasing in sensitive eloquence.

My course is based mainly on the classic, the regular study of the texts is very important and improvisation also takes a prominent place for the acquisition of know-how, an essential skill in the profession of public speaking. For the moment I work individually with the student on the work of TFE and public speaking for comedians, business executives and managers and other professions.

Looking forward to being able to train you in public speaking,

Michael

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Endowed with a higher diploma, having played with great professionals of the French theater. I offer my services in order to give my passion that I dedicate daily to the theater of French literature. I put in place the know-how and the many skills of the environment that allow you to evolve towards the professional world of public speaking.
Breathing, diction and moreover the declamation of texts, are an integral part of my objective to transmit, to me alone, the essence of the art of sensitive eloquence.
My motto: "You don't become an actor by wanting to become an actor, but by training in the technical phrasing of public speaking".

Communication Training (Professional / Personal) & Public Speaking
Whether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression? How to regain self-confidence and control the management of his emotions? Knowing how to speak in public is now a necessity for the company and in the company. From a personal point of view, this is a vector for better relationships and optimal messages. On the phone, in a meeting, in front of a client or a banker (...), your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent. Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented and then put into practice for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering trust ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups. Controlled, the method allows: • improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation • to work on his ease, leadership, his NLP, his charisma, his creativity and to go towards a certain personal development, through a set of scenarios * improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitch, intention, flow) Completed by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management ...), role plays, improvisations and simulations will be set up. With the key words: pronunciation, rhetoric, verbal and non-verbal communication, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee, structured speech (...). The goal is not only to focus on verbal communication but also on nonverbal communication, so as to make the control of his body, his voice (...), a real and lasting strength. Depending on the interaction between the trainer - coach and the one who consults, there is no single way to operate: each type of session depends on the needs and difficulties of each. In all cases, it is very often a question, while adapting to your own needs and after having precisely diagnosed your desired objective and the blockages encountered, to combine the theory (the bases of the studied concept, for example NLP / information asymmetry / the "how to say no" / the tools of non-verbal communication or the application of kinaesthesia) and its application (through exercises and direct applications). For example, are discussed: - the fundamentals of public speaking: breathing, gaze and body language - diction and elocution: rhythm and range of your voice - management of your emotions and your emotional overflow (example: stress) - work on the body, to amplify your charisma and ensure consistency between your message and your body ... with the aim of: * Enhance your presentation and arouse interest by focusing on your strengths, your qualities ... your personality * Match the content and form of your message * Improve your charisma, your self-confidence and the benefits of your emotional intelligence Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology. PLACES - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: notes that can be re-read on the chat). In this context, the videoconference sessions for which you asked me to seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place very optimally and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm).

Improve your speeches in public and in meetings / Brussels
Public speaking is one of the most scary things for human beings. For some, this can be extremely disabling and hinder their entire career. But this apprehension concerns a very large percentage of the population and crosses all categories of age, sex or socio-professional environment. If you are in this case, you can start by reassuring yourself: you are not alone! The second good news is that it works! It is by practicing that you will learn how to lower the level of stress, to be more aware of what you have to do and to be well prepared. To practice, I offer private lessons: a benevolent and demanding environment that will allow us to adapt to your specific needs. Once you have understood your fears and learned to overcome them, speaking (in public, meeting) may be a great source of fun!

My lessons with Laura really helped me with that. The combination of her expertise in voice control and yoga breathing made wonder for my voice. I can control the tone the depth and the sound my voice has in all moments.“ Roberta Manoni, Coach, Facilitator and Trainer (Brussels, Belgium) „I took voice/ vocal coaching classes with Laura in early 2019, to prepare my candidature for the German Liberal party's election list for the European Parliament elections 2019, as I was the lead candidate of the liberal party in my home region Rhineland-Palatinate. The voice/ vocal coaching classes with Laura very much helped me to improve my speaking technique, to take better care of and to develop my voice, and to better understand the functioning of my voice – and my body in a broader sense. Laura also taught me useful breathing/ respiration and relaxation techniques, which contributed to making me feel more at ease and comfortable when speaking in public, and also to manage the related stress in such situations. Laura's rich experience both as a singer and musician, vocal coach and yoga teacher, her very empathetic and sensitive nature, and her strong understanding of my specific needs in this situation, have been crucial to making these coaching classes extremely beneficial, insightful and useful for me. I can highly recommend Laura as a vocal coach to anyone interested in improving his/ her vocal and speaking techniques.“ Marcus Scheurren, Politician (Brussels, Belgium)
