Body Language Tips:
1. Make eye contact and smile. Be sure your eye contact is very direct. Also, smile while you connect to keep your eye contact warm.
2. Post and gestures. Be sure to not do anything like shuffle your feet, sway, etc. Just stand comfortably with your feet about shoulder-width apart. Be sure to gesture from a position called a loose steeple. Keep your hands loosely clasped at about your waist and gesture naturally from there.
3. Pause and nod after key ideas. This will add emphasis and get people nodding along with you. Nodding during pauses is contagious. Try it.

I have a presentation today and now I'm feeling very confident, I can do it !! Tq u so much... .
Good day, I am an training instructor for a shipping company and have conducting training for seafarers for the past two decades but still, I have to admit that there are times that I feel that I am not at my best when making my presentations and the simple tips that you mention are quite important especially in my line of work as I handle ship officers and crew who must bring with them the important learnings when going onboard ships. I am from the Philippines and training is my passion and I simply wanted to make a difference as an instructor. By the way I am not a technical person but I teach mental health and soft skills. Looking forward for more helpful videos. Thank you.
I’m so happy that I found this channel. Thanks for the informative videos.

Thank you so much, i dont need to search further for this matter. And I'm subscribing this channel 😊
This is something I'm gonna practice today! I actually am the worst at fidgeting and moving. I think it's because I'm so nervous. I also tend to rock which is very distracting. Thanks for a great video , i have a good place to start learning!
I'm studying communication and this video helped me a lot because I always at classes have to give presentations.
Thank you - this is definietly helpful and filled lot of confidence in me ..
Great video, awesome summary, hands down. Thank you
Mr. Lyon, your video was valuable in preparing my presentation. I put these methods and recommendations for non-verbal body language into practice, and my presentation was a success. Practicing and adding these three tips made me look and feel confident and calm during my presentation. Thank you for your advice.
