The ability to interpret body language is a skill that will enhance your ability to exhibit, read and understand non-verbal communication.

The PD Training Body Language training course will enable you to recognise the body language of others while being aware of what your own body is communicating. You’ll learn how to read facial expressions, hand and eye gestures, posturing, voice variations and movements and much more.

Body Language training courses are available now throughout New Zealand, including Auckland, Christchurch or Wellington.

"I found the course most useful to understand my own body language as well as others. I really enjoyed this training as an area I really needed development around to enhance my role as a Social Worker in School. Thank you to the trainer for being mindful of me, very supportive on arrival until departure and ensuring that I felt comfortable in the space of training. "

"A great group of people , made it awesome."

 "The trainer seemed very knowledgeable and experienced. He was a very pleasant person, built rapport quickly and was a nice presence in the room. He was also aware of our mental state (we'd had 1.5 days of heavy domestic violence training prior to his session)."

"It was fun training through and Royden was a neat guy."

I found the course to be thoroughly enjoyable and educational...I loved it and can't wait to put it into action. I do just wish it was longer: I enjoyed it enough to want stay and learn more for a few extra days.

I enjoyed the course and found it very useful and I aim to use it in both a professional and personal level. Thanks again Tammy was very good with her delivery and did an excellent job of keeping the group on track whilst at the same time giving everyone a fair time to ask questions. Thank you Tammy I would say the only thing negative is that everyone in the business may not get to do the course as it is invaluable, especially at this time of change.
