Self-improvement vacation: public speaking or confidence courses?
June 7, 2019 8:14 AM Subscribe
Is there a residential public speaking, confidence or related course that I could go on for a personal development-themed vacation?
I love vacations where I learn things and meet interesting people. I've previously done meditation retreats and courses at Esalen on the recommendation of the good people of Ask MeFi. I'm looking for something similarly off-beat; intense-but-enjoyable is OK :)
Interested in anything you think is relevant based on what I've said above (give me curveballs!), but my snowflake specifics:
- I don't have a specific problem with confidence, and present a lot in meetings at work already, but would just love to become one of those awesome charismatic Toastmaster types.
- Probably USA.
- Something a little non-corporate (ie. a retreat centre) is probably nearer the mark than something in a room at the airport Hilton.

Response by poster: That's a great idea, hadn't at all considered improv - and the standup courses on that site sound awesome too!
