Train like a professional

Got a high stakes presentation coming up? We’ve got you covered.

Bring your presentation to WAAPA. 90 minutes, one-to-one with a senior WAAPA practitioner. Skills, frameworks, practice, development, and live feedback specific to you - applied to real material in a private studio at our brand new city campus.

A different kind of professional development, built on WAAPA's world class reputation of training by doing.

Who is The Presentation Intensive for?

This intensive is for professionals and leaders who want to deliver presentations with more clarity, confidence, and impact. You might be preparing for a specific board presentation, seminar, conference, or strategy update - or developing your presentation skills more broadly as part of your professional development. Either way, you work on real material one-to-one with your very own communication performance coach.

This Intensive is for you if any of these sound familiar:

• You have a presentation coming up and the stakes are high.

• You've been told your presentations are content-heavy but not landing.

• You know the material inside out, but watching yourself present makes you cringe.

• You're being asked to present to more senior audiences and you want to step up.

• You've done generic presentation training before and it didn't change much.

• You want to get better at this quickly, and in a way that actually sticks.

What You'll Work On

• Your opening: so the room leans in inside the first 30 seconds.

• Structuring your content: what to include, what to cut, what to emphasise.

• Vocal Delivery: pace, pitch, emphasis, and the strategic use of silence.

• Physical Presence: posture, stillness, and strategic gesture under observation.

• Handling Interruption: staying composed when challenged or interrupted.

• Managing nerves: practical techniques for the moments before you speak.

What You'll Walk Away With

• A clear set of presentation skills and frameworks you can apply immediately.

• A refined, practised version of the material you brought into the session.

• An assessment of your current strengths and the specific habits to adjust.

• A warm up and preparation plan to deliver presentations with confidence.

How it works

You'll spend 90 focused minutes one-to-one with a senior WAAPA practitioner in a private studio. The session is built around real material - we assess where you are, introduce the skills and frameworks that matter most for your situation, and work on your content with live feedback. The shape of the session is tailored to you: what you need, what you're preparing for, and where the time is best spent.

No presentation?

No problem. We have you covered. We will provide you with a short presentation to work on for the day.

Why a 90 minute intensive?

A traditional one-day workshop puts you in a room with 20 to 25 other people, working through generic exercises, with maybe 10 minutes of personalised attention if you're lucky. The frameworks are useful. The group dynamic is energising. But the practical reality is that you spend most of the day watching other people learn.

Our 90-minute private intensives are built differently. You work one-to-one with a senior WAAPA practitioner, on real material, in a private studio. Every minute of the session is focused on you. Your delivery, your habits, your situation, your goals. The feedback is immediate, specific, and rehearsed in the room rather than left to apply later.

This is why our clients consistently tell us they get more from 90 minutes here than from a full day elsewhere.
