'I've been working with Mary Louise for the past six months and it has been an excellent experience.  Just as the benefits of physical training fade if not regularly maintained so I'd found that one-off training events tended to have a similar effect.  So what I was looking for was tailored help on a range of presentational and 'presence' skills in a way that would build over a period of time and allow me to benefit from coaching applied to a range of real work situations, try out new techniques and discuss what went well and not so well over an extended period.  I've now seen the benefits of Mary Louise's help in a number of real situations where others have commented positively on the impact I have made in a way that would not have happened without that help.  In the words of that advert Mary Louise's work with me has done 'exactly what it said on the tin'.

“Demonstrated very effectively how some simple changes of posture, breathing and style of content can bring a presentation to life and increase confidence in delivery”

“Excellent coaching and good fun”

‘Just to let you know my presentation seemed to go well and I got lots of positive feedback about pace, pauses and the variety of interactions I had fitted into 15 minutes. The breathing practice helped and people told me I didn’t appear nervous at all which was amazing.
 Thank you for all your help with it, I couldn’t have even got onto the stage without you!’
