Course description
Confidence Course Teacher Training Q&A Session:
Find out if training to become a Sunflower Effect Confidence Course Leader is right for you.
In this free online Q&A Session, you will hear more about the Foundation Course Leader Training and the Introductory Training Workshop - a weekend training workshop that is the prerequisite for joining the Foundation Course.
Claire Schrader, who developed the Sunflower Effect Confidence Building System, will be talking about all the ways in which she will be supporting you to build a successful practice running the Sunflower Effect Courses.
The Sunflower Effect is a pioneering new confidence-building system based in dramatherapy that is specifically designed to improve the lifestyle and prospects of quiet, shy and socially anxious people.
It is different from most confidence-building and therapy techniques such as assertiveness training, CBT, and talking therapy because it achieves outstanding lasting results very quickly. And more than anything else it is fun which is what makes it so popular with participants
The Sunflower Effect is recognised and validated on a regular basis by participants reporting life-changing results after completing the courses. There is a growing demand for the courses in different parts of the UK, Europe and internationally.
The Sunflower Effect Confidence Courses have been featured on Sky TV, BBC World Services, Sat 7 TV, Marie Claire.
Reasons for attending:
- You are inspired by the Sunflower Effect Confidences Course and know already you would like to train to join my team of Sunflower Effect Confidence Specialists delivering the courses in different parts of the UK
- You're curious about the Foundation Training starting in September 2024 but not sure yet if you want to commit to the full training.
The session will be between 60 and 90 minutes. If you're not able to attend, do sign up for the session and you will be sent a recording.
Suitability - Who should attend?
- You are a drama professional (performer, teacher) who is looking for a new direction.
- You are a dramatherapist or similar.
- You are a therapist, coach, counsellor or in the helping professions and realise there is more to confidence than talking. You would like to offer the Sunflower Effect Confidence Courses to your clients.
- You are inspired by the confidence-building effects of drama and would like to pass that onto others.
- You would like to offer the Sunflower Effect Confidence Courses within your organisation.
It is important that:
- You have some understanding of what it is like to be shy, self-conscious and lacking in confidence.
- You are highly motivated to help people with confidence issues. You are good at supporting others, caring, grounded and enthusiastic enthusiasm, compassion and groundedness. This will enable you to hold the space for people who have been struggling with confidence and don't believe they are ever going to change.
- You operate better within a team than working on your own. You want to be part of a bigger vision that is going to make a real difference in the lives of quieter people.
