Using gestures to enhance your speech

One way to communicate your message is through body language and gesture while you speak. In this excerpt from a workshop for teens about public speaking, I share some tips on how to do just that.
 

 
To review:

  • Keep your hands out of your pockets
  • Use interesting, non-traditional ways, to say common things
  • Be natural, relaxed and flowing … avoid being too stiff
  • Be aware of overusing gestures

The above video was excerpted from two 45-minute workshops I facilitated for a group of teens and young adults. I am available to speak to your group, both in-person and virtually, on a variety of topics. For more information, visit www.carmaspence.com/speaker.
