Speaking circles are a powerful and unique way to work on becoming a more confident and effective speaker. They provide the opportunity to practise speaking to groups. Key components are being yourself, connecting with your audience and being fully listened to by a supportive group. In our experience people are often transformed by participating in one. The course is specifically for people who stammer/stutter or clutter wanting to develop their confidence speaking in a range of situations.
