ace meetings & interviews, no matter what business you're in. Connect to
your authentic power and polish your performance skills. Learn how to
truly affect & land on your audience with both your head & your heart
for max effect.
Class is small to allow intense personal coaching, and everything is
shot on video for instant replay & feedback, so you learn fast. You'll
also create videos you can use for YouTube, video email, video tips or
your website.

TESTIMONIALS from our past
workshops:
Prior to taking Jack and Barbara's class, I was stuck in terms of how I
would best present my message. After three days in their workshop, I am
now bursting with ideas and confidence. They are the experts in
marketing, storytelling, and knowing how to ignite your audience and
have fun. I highly recommend this class to anyone who needs public
speaking to promote their business.
Kristin Macdonald, Radio Host & Speaker
Hi Jack and Barbara,
What a transformational weekend that was for me, personally and
professionally! Your instruction and feedback met me exactly where I was
before as a speaker (hiding behind my boring Power Point presentation)
to being comfortable and authentic with my audience, trusting that the
right words and presence will come forth to make it a rich and
meaningful experience for them. And I can have fun, too! With deep
appreciation,
Melinda Dewey, Speaker
Barbara and Jack gave me the tools and techniques I needed to prepare
properly for the spotlight events that any musician will face at one
time or another. Whether it's your very first interview with a local
newspaper, telling a compelling story between songs, your acceptance
speech at the Grammys or your chat with David Letterman on the tonight
show. ;) Don't leave your career up to chance, be prepared.
Joerg Kohring, Musician & Composer
Teacher at Musician’s Institute, Los AngelesTESTIMONIAL
for Barbara's on-camera coaching (which we'll be doing in this workshop
as well)
We now live in a world where video is commonplace. From video email and
YouTube to individual and corporate presentations. If you are like me,
the first time I viewed my own video performance I was horrified. "Can I
really be that bad?" I even said to myself, "I need help." Then I was
introduced to Barbara Niven. An appointment was made to do some camera
training and it was one of the best experiences of my life. It was fun
and comfortable. I enjoyed every step of the learning process. Barbara
made the process enjoyable because she really cares about you. I find
myself practicing the skills she taught nearly every day because they
also transfer over to public speaking, presenting, and general
communication. Thank you Barbara!
