Julian Burgess and Danielle Finch have severe stammers. Both have stammered since they were very young and stuttering has affected every aspect of their lives. Both are desperate to rid themselves of their debilitating condition..
First Cut follows them on a four-day intensive course, run by the McGuire Programme, that helps people who stammer overcome their affliction.
The course includes new breathing techniques, how to overcome the fear of speaking and how to deal with everyday normal communicational situations. At the end of the course, Julian and Danielle both have to make a public speech in front of hundreds of onlookers.
I don't stutter but it bought tears to my eyes seeing how brave these people were and what they were able to overcome.
same here. :')
Julian Burgess and Danielle Finch ..You guys are very brave.I can understand how it will feel like to have all those conversations and public speech in front of 100 people and what is like to be a stutterer as I myself is a stutterer .I don't know any technique of breathing but I'm trying my best to over come this stuttering like you guys did.I wish you both best of luck for your future ahead.
I cryed to watch it. So happy to see people who try their best to recover stammer.
This video actually brought me to tears. I stiffer as well but not nearly as intense as these people. It opened my eyes to see that there are people out there with the same conditions I have and I can get through it :) awesome video. Gave me a lot of hope
That was amazing, it brought tears to my eyes. I'm so proud from all those people who faced their fear and overcame stuttering. I am truly amazed. Be blessed xx
+Olivia Rose Facing fears is only way to overcome the problem. When scary situation is faced constantly, it eventually becomes less scary.
I feel their pain so much
Everyone has things they excel at and everyone has things they struggle to overcome. It's so admirable to see people take on their weaknesses and overcome them. That's guts right there.
This brings tears to my eyes. I hope this way to fluency continues to work for people.
Feels overwhelming after watching this program. I was not having situation as bad as them but still struggling with stuttering in the past. The feeling of words stuck in your throat is absolutely frustrating. But I am getting better by forcing myself talk to people while having opportunities. And now I'm able to give presentations in conferences. Hope anyone who get stuttered can overcome it someday. It does take times. Good luck!
My difference between Danielle Finch and I is that I never force my words out like she does in the video. I knew that you had to get those words out but I would never force myself. I was very quiet growing up, not because I didn't want to speak but because I couldn't. I realize the importance of getting those words out, it's not about how it gets out but why it needs to come out. As a recovering stammerer I cant let it control me.
***** Look up Michael Williams. He's a great online speech therapist. A lot of his videos are free to watch right on TH-cam! He even has a free 34 min video on his website, check it out. You'll be glad you did man.
first time ive seen this vid and i'm 53 and suffered stammering all my life. To all those that have surpassed it, big congrats :D
You should also give the program a go, it's never too late
Much respect to all of you.
Simply awesome. Hats off to the program !!!!!
I do have stammering problem and trying to work on that, not yet successful though. God be merciful over all such people
I feel their pain also because I know what its like to have a stutter and how upsetting it can be.
Hello everyone!! I am 28 and been stuttering since I can remember. One of my biggest fears was accepting a job at a call center . My managers use to listen in on my calls and I always felt they pressure. Yea I sometime stuttered I’m the phone while I was on a phone with a customer. Over time the job still kept me and as I got comfortable I was able to some what control my stutter. Watching these videos really brings me inspiration . I too has been there. Everybody keep your head up and never give up, despite how stressful it can be
Alza Hayes make as many TH-cam videos as you can. Dude. I’m a stutterer too.
I stuttered horribly as a child and slowly grew out of it but i still to this day get hung up here and there on certain words. This made me cry seeing them overcome it. If you never stuttered youll never understand how horrible it is not being able to control your own voice.
I've mixed emotions about what I've just seen in this programme as it is close to my heart. These recovering speech students should be commended for their bravery and I wish I had that courage. Putting themselves through the challenges and final test( Respect to Danielle and Julian! ) . The problem I have is the fact that a lot of people without a stammer wouldn't have done what these students have did in the final training in the Public streets on the soap box .Seems such a stressful situation to be used as a pass grade, but I guess they jumped out of the plane and now they know the parachute will open!.. I wish them the very best with there new fluency.
So proud of everyone especially Danielle. Her story really resonates with me. I wish her all the best. :)
I live in the Caribbean. I know about three other stammerers. I was stuttering since I could remember but i am trying. I am trying to gain more confidence, take my time and breathe properly. Good luck to all other stutterers in the world just keep trying and ignore the negativity from ignorant people.
I am so happy for them! Wow! Such amazing progress in only 3 days! In my own personal experience it has a lot to do with confidence and breathing. For some reason I rehearse what I'm gonna say before I make a phone call or talk to a stranger. My husband used to stammer, but he only stammers occasionally now on the phone. It was really a case of confidence.
Great video ...Have almost the exact same problems as Julian.
The fear of speaking publicly & on the phone do drag you back many a time.
I was stuttering when I was 7 till 18 ..but I start to think that its ok to stutter and I start to talk confident with sturrering and the more I feel comfortable to sturrer the more it become less ... and now thank god I can talk fluently at age 22 .. its all about confident people ..
I am also stutterer, from this vedio I learnt that tension, fear plays the key role & that what I reduce
It's interesting that they stammer in different ways: Danielle makes intense noise and then speaks, but doesn't look nervous, while Julian quivers and looks nervous or hesitant.
Keep trying.Try meditation & breathing exercises ....I'm 23,stammering for 17-18 years now.And yes,I've refused to participate in many things due the fear of stammering & being seen stammering by people.
Stammered at my job interview,thankfully ...they didn't care.Ive to negotiate with stammering,daily.
Don't give up ...You're not alone.
Well done Danielle
Bless them 💕life is hard but they are unique
i'm so proud of danielle! gives me hope...
I'm so fucking proud of them. This made me cry so much.
I’m 15 years old and I go through stuttering blocks everyday. It makes me feel less confident and makes me feel like I can’t do anything. I get scared and anxious to answer simple questions like my name or what school I go to. I can’t ask or answer questions when I really want to. I can’t speak in front of an audience or big group and I can’t speak naturally and how I want to in front of friends and family. I can’t order food for myself in public and I’m scared I won’t be able to do it in the future. I’m scared people will judge me and make fun of me and see me in a different way. It makes me very anxious and gives me extreme anxiety when I think about speaking. I’ve tried various techniques and even going to speech therapy. I don’t find it helps for me and hope I can do something about it. I understand their pain and ask anyone who doesn’t to be respectful and have patience if they ever come across anyone like this. It’s amazing to see how many people on here are actually so kind and nice when it comes to this subject. It’s so nice to see these people in recovery and succeeding in overcoming this battle that we have to face every day of our lives.
im gonna take this into the future and stop my stuttering....the phone one is really bad for me....hopefuly i can take a deep breath over the phone no matter how much i sound like a mong xx
inspiring stuff, credit to both of them
Wish if we had such programs here :S
we're same:) just practice breathing deeply before you speak! it helps me a lot.
Why you don't tell people more depth about this technique ?
Евгений Мойкин They wanna make money out of your stuttering ass.
+MOHANNAD ALHUWAISH that's what I hate
+MOHANNAD ALHUWAISH well people's time can't always be free you know.
Hi I stammered bad as a child, but used costal breathing and found my speech improved load s. All stammers need to try it. I didnt know it was called that I found it by accident. I use it all the time. Especialky if im going to meet people. Eg wedding. Party. I now sing on stage. Try it.

Avoiding relapse is the hardest part

Brilliant stuff.
Sir , I am a stature....I am to think, my stammering cause, is my front brain unable to connect, to rear brain...is it right,sir???? Or it's a habit, sir??? Plz ans me sir
First 5 seconds were perfect ASMR
I have a stammer and it's got quite serious and it's so hard for me to do daily things like answering the phone and telling people things and I never ever put my hand up in class because people with laugh at me and that puts my grades down I wish it would go away!
Alice and Josie X I know exactly how you feel. I have stuttered since I can remember and it is very difficult for me to speak up. At school, when I have questions or know the answer to questions, I stay quiet. I am constantly thinking that if I speak, I will stutter. I talked to a psychologist for over a year, because I also suffer from anxiety, and she helped me understand that stuttering can be influenced by our constant fear that if we speak we will stutter. For example, when I speak without thinking that I'll stutter, I speak fluently. However, my mind is constantly going back to what people might say about me and my speech difficulty. My psychologist helped me understand that I am not weird and that even the best orators stutter. You just got to learn to accept yourself. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean that you should give up and stop trying to overcome your stuttering. I wish you the very best. We are stuttering buddies ❤

i feel bad for people who stutter :(
as a stutterer my advice for you is: Don't feel bad for people who stutter. If you have any friends that stutter, try to encourage them to feel more free to talk to you. Help them.
ok
CPapadakis i wish you can tell my parents that cuz i stutterer too,,,,
railn j sander I was in the same situation as yours unfortunately. You have to rely on yourself and become stronger for it. No one can understand what it's like to stutter. Not even your parents. It's like having to explain having one hand to someone that has two. It's natural to a certain extend. Just don't avoid dealing with it because it will eat you up inside. Trust me i know. It doesn't matter how you are speaking. The important thing in my opinion is feeling comfortable with it. If someone doesn't like it, it's their problem.
CPapadakis will it was worst when i was little but it got better now ,sadly i never met someone that stutter like me and love how comfortable you are in your own skin cuz usual the rudest people to us are strange but you're different so thanks ^_^
I stammer But not as bad as these people
Why-Is-It-Me this program is probably for really bad cases of stutter

what should I do? I'm from toronto ontario canada and I'm 24 years of age. I'm jumping from university program to program because of my speech. should I even give education a shot? I skip because I can't say my name nor can I participate due to fear for the obvious. 24 and its taking me this long to complete a degree.
