    Call  917.549.5173 or send an e-mail to      
         info@larrygleason.com (subject line: 'Private Coaching')
    to discuss your personal situation.  All levels

PRIVATE COACHING
For Non-Actors:

    CEOs, Club Officers, Business Leaders, Group Leaders,
    Lawyers, Religious Leaders, Politicians,
    Interviewers/Interviewees, Staffers,
    Seasoned or First-time speakers, anyone who needs
    to get up in front of small or large groups

    Larry works with Non-actors who need to improve
    their communication skills in public situations and
    speaking before an audience whether it be giving a
    speech or presentation.  Larry evaluates your ability
    to communicate ideas in a public setting:  what is
    being communicated, how it is communicated and how
    it is received.  Larry calls this "The Communication
    Loop" and he looks for signs where, in that loop,
    communication breaks down.  The fix is personally
    designed on you: your personality, the nature and type
    of your presentation, your goals, what holds you back,
    etc.  Conversely, he doesn't fix what isn't broken, but
    seeks to make what's working work even better.

    Go to Public Speaking Coaching for more information
    on what Larry can do for you.

    Of course, for Non-Actors, Larry offers more than
    Public Speaking Coaching.  You are welcomed to
    explore and expand your horizons via the same
    private studies availed here to professional Actors.   
    Investigate, dabble, get your acting feet wet without
    the pressure of being thrown in with the high
    pressured stakes of regular acting classes.  Use
    private one-on-one classes to test out your inner
    acting bug.  Or use the same exercises actors use for
    stage work for personal growth and expression.
    Contact Larry (subject line: 'Non-Actors') and let him
    know your particular needs and he'll design private
    classes to meet those needs.



ONE-ON-ONE ALL DAY INTENSIVES-Private
Four hours consecutively;
additional hours discounted

    Let's work together for an intensive multi-hour       
    session.  Work on monologues, scenes, new material,
    or even a play.  Work on acting technique, private
    moments, emotional work. Just you and Larry.  
    Completely tailored to your needs.  And completely
    private. Contact Larry. (subject line: 'Intensives')



GROUP SESSIONS-Private  

    If you have a group of people you would like to work
    with, you can form your own private class and split
    the cost.

    Work on monologues, scenes, new material, or even a
    play with you and your colleagues. You set the size of
    the class, you determine how many sessions and their
    length, when and how frequently you meet, you decide
    the rehearsal venue.  For more info, click here.

    Shakespearean or heightened text eluding you? Larry
    can help you break down the text for complete roles
    or just a speech, help you find acting choices, guide
    you during rehearsal - whatever your need.  Fees are
    set according to each particular situation.
