What we do…
It’s time to unlock the innate ability that exists in us all to communicate effortlessly. These public speaking workshops utilise a combination of performance techniques, discovery exercises and the psychology of effective communication, to transform the way you and your team communicate with colleagues, clients and stakeholders.
People forget facts but remember stories. In our public speaking classes, I (Bella, performance coach) show you how to structure and deliver engaging & memorable presentations with authentic presence and natural flair. My communication coaching sessions provide honest & practical individual feedback to transform your ability to influence.
Learn how to eliminate anxiety when presenting, pitching & speaking in public from an experienced performance coach, and feel at ease in your day to day communication.
‘The session was great; the best training session I have been to of this style. Bella’s tone, style, pace and format was absolutely spot on. She was really engaging and pitched the session at just the right level for those of us in the room. I found the techniques to be useful and creative - I was pushed out of my comfort zone but she did it well’

Skills Workshops
These unique, practical public speaking workshops cover a range of skills such as Communication, Personal Impact, Presentation & Performance.
I strive to enhance the potential impact of your team members by demystifying the skills required to communicate concisely and naturally under pressure. I bring a host of tools and techniques to help get the best out of all attendees, regardless of the range of perceived levels of confidence and competence.
‘Bella was incredibly skilled at getting a team who are very serious in their approach, relaxed and happy to participate. Her feedback to everyone in the room was especially impressive and helpful, particularly the tone with which it was delivered. I could not be happier with the session.’

Individual Performance & Communication Coaching
These one-to-one coaching sessions are tailored to the needs of the participant and focus on finding the most successful way for the individual to communicate and present. They’'ll benefit from private communication skills training in sessions that use a combination of practical exercises, filmed analysis, and accessible theories. In these public speaking classes, participants learn to communicate with fluency, precision, and clarity in any situation, providing them with natural influence and the ability to make an impact in business and beyond.
‘Bella helped me curate my best man speech so that it flowed, and then supported me hugely with the delivery. I feel both ready and excited for it now, rather than the overwhelming nerves I had before. I’m so grateful.’

Preparation for an Event
Coaching for individuals or small teams preparing for important client meetings, presentations, speeches and interviews; specialised public speaking workshops with in-depth communication skills training. The format will depend on the needs of the participants, but may include;
Filming and play-back of the attendees with feedback on how they are coming across and suggestions to improve where necessary.
Content analysis from an objective external perspective.
Techniques for overcoming performance anxiety.
Practice with Q&A simulations.
Rehearsal in a non-judgemental environment where experimentation and missing your mark are encouraged.
Virtual Communication Skills
Communication skills training focused on overcoming the barriers to human communication created by the technology of online arenas. I will help you reach through the cameras and microphones to retain humanity and personal presence when a face-to-face meeting is not a possibility.
Overcoming Performance Anxiety
Even the most seasoned performers experience a level of performance anxiety; it’s a natural human response under pressure. Public speaking workshops or 1:1 coaching sessions provide insight into what’s happening and why, and offer tools to help you overcome debilitating anxiety and harness the anxious energy to your advantage.
Presentation Structuring & Storytelling
Presentation skills classes with essential guidance for putting together a presentation that has clarity, and impact and focuses on the message being memorable and accessible to your audience. Through targeted performance coaching and comprehensive communication skills training, I help you bring what might feel like dull and factual content to life through basic storytelling techniques and focusing on bringing humanity and richness to the data.

‘Hugely insightful session, packed full of practical tools and tips that tap into a natural ability I didn't know I had. I was able to apply what I learnt to my work immediately, both in-person and online, and while my presenting skills were ok before, this session has levelled them up in a noticeable way.’
