Approach

Not perfectly. Authentically.

I combine practical communication training with acting and improvisation techniques. The goal is not to make you sound perfect. It is to help you speak with nothing in the way.

Voice and body language

How the audience sees you, and how you feel on stage. Together we find your natural comfort: the posture, movement, voice and eye contact in which you feel like yourself.

When there is no script

Difficult Q&A, surprises and staying present in the moment. This is where improvisation helps.

Practice and feedback

Every participant gets personal feedback and clear guidelines. We train on camera, so you can see yourself from the outside and clearly track your progress.

Experience, not slides.

Knowledge widens your understanding, but it does not change how you speak. Practice does. Speaking, body language and voice grow like muscles: through training. That is why I call myself a trainer, and why I don't teach from PowerPoint slides. Even in a 40-minute session we start training right away, in pairs and as a group, with exercises that push you, and feedback on the spot.

Biography

About me

Vytautas Kontrimas

I am a public speaking and communication trainer, professional actor and Associate Professor at the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre. For more than 20 years I have worked where communication, acting, teaching and performance meet.

I train executives, managers, professionals, educators and university students. I am also exploring how AI can become a training partner for speakers: rehearsing, simulating audiences and difficult conversations, without losing your own voice.
