Workshops & Skills Bursts
I call my evening workshops Skills Bursts because they are highly-concentrated and intensive sessions. Each lasts a couple of hours, plus a break, and they are full of energy. They are designed to teach you new skills, and allow you to practice them in a non-threatening situation. More importantly, they are fun. Click here to see my schedule of events over the next three months.
MASTERCLASS
Talking to Strangers
A unique Masterclass where you’ll learn where and how to approach strangers - what sort of things you can talk about and how to keep the conversation going. How to use your body language to look confident and relaxed, and to make them feel comfortable. And finally, how to ask for their phone number.
The event is in two halves. You will spend the morning learning new skills in a hotel conference room. After a light lunch you will hit the streets to practise what you learnt in the shops and bars.

STREET WORKSHOP
Flirting Safari
A unique experience to develop and practice your chat-up skills. You will be with a small group who, under the guidance of the Dating Doctor, will practice how to approach and talk to complete strangers in city centre shops and bars.
You will meet in the city centre with a coffee and briefing from the Dating Doctor. He will give you some tips on how to approach and talk to strangers and after about half an hour you will hit the streets.
You will 'work' the shops & bars for an hour or so with coaching from the Dating Doctor. We will finish with a drink and de-brief in a local bar. You are then free to have lunch, shop and practice at your leisure.
This on-street workshop is a unique opportunity to hone your skills and boost your confidence. More importantly it will be great fun and create a wonderful feel good factor.
WEEKEND WORKSHOP
How to Find, Attract & Keep
Your One
A unique weekend workshop where you will learn where and how to meet your soulmate. How to approach them, and look confident and relaxed. How to make small talk, and sound like an interesting person. How to flirt and use your body language to make people feel comfortable. And finally, you’ll learn the secrets of seduction.
You’ll be in a small group of 10 people, so you’ll get plenty of attention. You won’t be bored with Powerpoint slides and flipcharts, because there won’t be any. You’ll listen and see how it’s done, then you get the chance to practise. Because the best way to master anything is by doing it.
SKILLS BURSTS
Talk WithYour Body
Learn how to read and exploit body language
Whether someone likes you or not is a lot to do with the signals you give when you meet them. And the signals that we send with our body are subconsciously read by everybody.
The way we connect with people can make all the difference between success and failure - getting a pay rise, winning a new job, making a sale, or charming a friend or partner. You can use the tricks of body language to make other people feel comfortable, like you or even fancy you.
On this practical and interactive Skills Burst you will learn and get a chance to practice:
- meaning of body posture and movements;
- the three communication senses;
- how to use the art of synchronizing;
- dealing with different types of personality;
- creating the right attitude and building confidence.

SKILLS BURST
The Art of Seduction
Learn how to get your own way at work & play
The skills of the seducer don’t have to be used to manipulate and mislead. They can be used to sell your ideas, get people to do almost anything and really make things happen.
At work we call it influence, negotiation and persuasion. In a social context it’s charm, confidence and desire. On this practical and interactive Skills Burst you will learn how to:
- influence people with integrity and honesty;
- tell when someone is trying to manipulate you;
- get anyone to like you, every time;
- apply the ‘law of inertia’ to make people act;
- use ‘seductive’ words to stir emotions;
- create feelings of pleasure and pain to excite;
- grasp the initiative with the bold move.
