Are you ashamed of your voice? Do you feel that others think you have an annoying or even boring voice? Do you wish you had a rich, clear, resonant voice that gave you a sense of authority with people at work, at home or out with friends where you tend to be the listener when your conversation simply doesn’t cut through the chat?
This then saps your confidence further and takes all the enjoyment out of life.
I’m Peter Baker, a professional voice actor and trainer, and I can teach you how to optimise your voice and dramatically boost your confidence around other people.
You'll develop a more confident, deeper and more powerful voice - that'll make people pay attention and listen to your every word!
You’ll learn simple exercises and easy but effective lifestyle changes that will improve your voice, that will reduce stumbling and mumbling, and give you an assured air around people, and help make new friends and contacts.
You’ll train your voice to become clearer and more direct, so you’ll never need to repeat yourself in conversation.
Plus, as well as improving the actual quality of your voice, I’ll give you a wide range of communication skill boosting tips and tricks that will turbo charge your confidence levels, to help to enhance your career and to hook up with people.
Maybe you host podcasts or internet videos – wouldn’t you love your viewers and listeners to hang on your every word? I’m sure you do!
So how long does this training take? Well, I have put together a very comprehensive course with exercises that you can practice, and I’ve seen students see results in as little as a few days, but to totally transform your voice, I have put together a 30-day plan for you to follow. Simply watch a short video every day for 30 days and follow the tips and training I’ll give you.
In just one month, I will train you to have a more resonant and deeper voice, so you can command authority. I’ll give you the secrets of training your voice to be clearer, so you can communicate your needs and points of view much more accurately, and I’ll also show you the essential rules of first contact with people who you are attracted to, to save you from a lot of anguish and disappointment. You’ll also learn how to cope with various stressful situations and use your voice to assert your authority.
But that’s not all, as well as showing you how you can develop a rich, clear voice that people will want to listen to , you’ll also develop your breathing skills to enhance your general health and posture as well as learn a whole host of confidence tips and tricks that I know have helped people break out of their shells and really enjoy life!
