Course description
Introductory Confidence Building Evening for quiet, shy and introverted people:
Designed for quiet, shy, self-conscious and introverted people.
In this introductory evening, you will be discovering the keys to authentic confidence based on author and self-confidence specialist Claire Schrader's experiences of being a shy introvert and what really worked in getting her out of her shell so she could achieve things in her personal and professional life she never would have thought possible.
You will meet Claire in person and experience a series of confidence exercises that you will be able to put into practice in your everyday life.
Claire creates an informal, relaxed, non-judgmental atmosphere that will quickly put you at your ease and free you of the internal pressures that usually inhibit you from expressing yourself.
It's a very safe place for you to gently stretch out of your comfort zone with people who feel in the same boat as you.

Upcoming start dates
Suitability - Who should attend?
Quiet, shy, self-conscious, socially anxious and introverted people.
People who are curious about the Sunflower Effect Confidence Courses and want to have a taste of what to expect.
The evening is designed for people who find the spotlight hard, or who avoid social situations or situations where they are put under pressure.
Outcome / Qualification etc.
The evening will serve as an introduction to participating in the Sunflower Effect confidence-building classes and courses.
The evening on its own may not be the answer to all your problems since building confidence is a complex process.
But most people are surprised at what they are able to achieve during this short introductory evening and experience significant benefits or they can see what is possible for them if they should go on to join one of the Sunflower Effect Courses.
Training Course Content
You will be working with the Sunflower Effect®, through an adapted form of drama because this is the most effective way of achieving this.
This is very different from the kind of drama that you might experience at an ordinary drama class. It has been carefully adapted and combined with some of the most effective personal development tools that, if you go onto join Claire's Sunflower Effect Confidence Courses, will enable you to make a profound shift in the way you express yourself in your life.
We start seated in a circle where we do relaxation exercises, and then you’ll have an opportunity to introduce yourself so you can get to know everyone.
This is followed by a series of exercises in which you will learn how to connect with your intuition and discover how your creative brain works.
Towards the end of the session, you will be working in a group where we will explore a story – and there will be many opportunities throughout the evening to reflect on your experiences.
