Tick tock, tick tock...and the moment is gone, my friend.

That is the time you need to make the first impression.

Are you asking a question how the hell am I able to do something in such a short time to impress people? 

The answer is that you don't need to do anything at the moment. Everything is done on your behalf. The way you stand, walk, cloth, groom, smile or frown, how muscular you are and much more is doing the job for you.

In this course which is built upon my lecture at London's Royal Festival Hall, you will learn how to master these subtle messages produced by our body while we are not even aware of those.

You will find out what to pay attention to in meeting people, like a proper posture, smile, the distance you stand from the person and if you are open enough for them to be comforted. You will also find out what to avoid while meeting others and how to check how are you doing with impressing them.

After finishing the course, you are perfectly ready to launch your journey for being more impressive not only in the first moments of any meeting, but you will understand the impressive behaviour more in-depth, and you will be able to profit from in more cases than just this one.

Hope to see you on the other side!

Hi and welcome. I am Martin Semerad and I am a communication coach specialising on nonverbal communication or otherwise body language. My story starts when I was about 14 years old when I, by accident, found out there something more behind a spoken communication, that there is a nonverbal part which is insanely influential.


As I was pretty young I made my parents buy a book on the subject, the book was written by James Borg and it was my first intended touch with body language since then I have been deepening this knowledge and skills, for a couple of years I have been only studying and absorbing information, after that, I started the journey of transforming my life with this skill.


I started to look at people and find out how they feel, what relationships are they enjoying and which are not gonna last, I started using techniques from the literature to impress people, to make them listen to me, to make them like me and I have been successful. I tried a lot of stuff, some didn’t work and some did so I created a repertoire of skills which are proven by experiences during the last 6 years.


I realised how powerful is a smile at the right moment and it helped me to go through high school even when I wasn’t the most skilled engineer but I understood the dynamics of people. I have been able to go to exams and use my skills to avoid areas I didn’t know much about and pick specific areas I wished.


Then I decided to leave my birth town and go to see the big world so I went to London. This time was essential for my development as a specialist on nonverbal communication on the international level. I put my communicational skill through a test and it passed successfully. I have found a job within 15 hours living in London. Don’t get confused a bit of luck was important part but when the luck is giving you a chance you have to take it and use it and it’s super easy to reject the open chest of luck, I have also experienced some of that on my journeys but let’s save this story for another time.


During this time I have finished certifications by Dr Ekman and his PEG so I become specialist in facial expressions by finishing the most comprehensive course on facial expressions called Facial Action Coding System among other I am certified by Vanessa Van Edwards and her Science of People, TJ Walker and a couple of others.


I am deeply interested in psychology, psychotherapy, philosophy and general wisdom, I love reading, handstanding, hiking and a city walks, I practised Philippine martial art Escrima and there is so much more that it would take on the whole book so I will cut it off.


In the year 2018 I decided to launch my Instagram account focusing mainly on body language which already has about 4,5k followers since then I have created 5 online courses published on Udemy, which has been already sold in more than 15 countries, I spoke for managers and public audience in Prague and London on importance of the body language in interpersonal relationships. I am writing articles for Thrive Global community and also blog for my followers what is it like to live life as a specialist on body language.


Body language is my passions and I feel the urge to spread the word into the world, so if you are interested in body language as well, you have found the right place!
