Hello…. I enjoy all your clips. I would like a copy of your book. However, I am unable to locate. Can you assist with any site or publisher I can order from. Much appreciated!!!
This is literally the best presentation advice ever. And I mean it. Whenever I ask people for help on how to form hand gestures, they say it just comes naturally but it for me it doesn't. I have to actually plan my hand motions and this is exactly what I needed. Ily so much Vanessa.
It’s not developed naturally. Those people just unknowningly are around people who use hand gestures and so it’s adopted. I learned my hand gestures and confidence and they go hand in hand. It’s hard to learn especially in uncomfortable situations but honestly. Best way I found was just to fake it until I made it.it’s hard to have a convo and not use my hands lol.
I wish I had your guidance earlier in my career. I'm a typical New Yorker and talk with my hands. I've always been so conscious of speaking with my hands and have been trying to hide it when in a corporate environment. Thank you for teaching me how to use my hands to enforce my expressions. I'm no longer try to hide my hands, but make it an effort to use them meaningfully. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
1) numbers 2) increase and decrease, little or big 3) emotional (reach for heart region) 4) groups and division (cuff hands) 5) coming together 6) okay 7) you me and we
Vanessa is a warm person with an empathetic way to explain (effective) communication with body language. She gets it and extends those concepts to her audience very well. Her methods work!
Vanessa exudes a warmth that effortlessly envelops her audience, drawing them into the intricate world of effective communication through body language. With an empathetic touch, she navigates the complexities, unraveling the subtleties of non-verbal cues with remarkable ease. Her innate understanding transcends mere comprehension; it transcends barriers, resonating deeply with those eager to grasp the art of expression. Her methods? They're not just theories; they're proven pathways, meticulously tailored to guide, inspire, and empower her audience towards effective and impactful communication.
huh, i already accidentally do all of these. i thought it was maybe annoying to the listener and was trying to stop, so it's good to hear that it's helpful to convey messages this way!
As a new presenter this information gives me great direction and encouragement to use my hands where I would otherwise not. Thanks! I'll be back for more instruction.
This is the best expansion to the strong hand movements; a speaker can do. It will assist with delivering a striking message in a respectable way. Splendid!
Watched this and then immediately went to watch the only TED talk that stuck in my mind: Amy Cuddy/ Body language 40million views. She's absolutely right! Her hands 'narrate' the whole story beautifully - amazing!! I knew I enjoyed the talk, know I know why it's so effective.
U r an expert in body language.. I m from India.. I love ur videos.. Pl concentrate on body language and non verbal communication videos.. From whatever I ve seen of u, I could make up that ur body language videos are straight from d heart.. I don't say that other videos are not good but body language videos are simply awesome.. I was a person who talked much in my early days only to ultimately notice that only empty vessels make more noice.. So I m in the process of learning gestures so that I can reduce talking.. U r helping me a lot in that aspect.. Thank u 🙏💕 mam
Thank you Vanessa. Very pragmatic and down to earth advice. I just recently started to consciously notice the hand gestures. At a subconscious level I guess I did notice it because all people I found charismatic happen to use them a lot and now I started incorporating them on my everyday life.
This video is fantastic! It highlights 7 impactful hand gestures for presentations. Whether emphasizing key points or connecting with the audience, integrating these gestures will undoubtedly enhance any delivery. Thanks for sharing these valuable insights
Wow, that was powerful Vanessa! You are incredible! I started practicing some of the hand gestures as soon as the video ended. Thank you for helping us become better communicators with person and on video. 🤟
I always feel like I've learned a wealth of knowledge from all of your interviews. Thank you for helping us be more charismatic, I really appreciate it!
Thank you, Vanessa, for these powerful hand gestures. I have been using these gestures without realizing their power. Now, I can use them intentionally😊
Jesus I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought her side comments of acknowledgement was too much. Because she kept interrupting her I felt like Vanessa felt more rushed to try and finish her points and statements before being abruptly interrupted again 😂
Fantastic Talk Venessa- so impressive- your hand gestures are congruent to what you speak- I cannot do this...Males use fewer hand gestures compared to their counterparts....not sure why?
She's giving examples when she quoted and also using her hands in every word she personally said. No pause at all! With that speaking pace! Every public speaker would agree that "pause" is important. I think this should be applied in hand gestures as well. I hardly can finish the 1st minute of the video without feeling (visually) over stimulated. On the other hand, I agree this is full of great information we need to know. Also to learn not using it too much, haha!
I am so glad I happened upon this channel. I am in the talent industry and always need to learn new and easier ways to improve my skills. When the next audition comes, I have better tools to ensure booking more work. Why was I never taught this??? Thank you 😊
Wowwww this is wonderful. I'm blessed to have found your channel. It's been more than one year that I didn't open my LinkedIn account. I just did it tonight to check up on my profile and saw one of Vanessa's video. I then rushed to TH-cam as i believed she must have a channel. I like the way you love what you are doing. You are so interesting to listen to 👍👍👍👍👍👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Vanessa, I am quickly becoming (up goes my pointer finger) your #1 fan!! Your content is inspirational and you, you are aspirational. I'm hooked!! For all the time and effort you put into this channel, THANK YOU!! -AG
I talk with my hands a lot, this will really help me hone in on it what exactly to do with those hands during my talks and videos! Just finished your Udemy course, you are awesome! No jazz hands 😂
Excellent video!!! As a leader, as a person pursing public speaking, and charismatic person.... this is a phenomenal video that I would share to people wanting to learn about body language.
I always wondered why I can't draw people to me with conversations even tough I'm an interesting person. Been searching for a while now and boom I just found out why. Very good video miss Vanessa and very helpful.
Yeah Vanessa it would be an undoubtedly impressive and effective conversation which could help us to connect with others easily during conversation if we start using our hand gestures during Conversation.
And I think maybe that's why you instantly grow to like them so much because it realllllllly feels so passionate when they talk. Good thing they do this :)
I love to watch these videos with Vanessa! Vanessa I want to come work for you, working in this field would not be work at all for me! This is really my passion.
It was a very helpful video... Thank you for sharing this with us... What should I do if I want to know more about hand gestures and good body language...?

I wish this chick had more time to say what she has to say. She sounds so rushed and the information is so good.
+SnobbyLion : You just need to listen more quickly.
That's soo true if her videos could be a little longer. That would be great
Watch the video on .5 speed.
lmao wat
You can watch some of the videos that she has produced on her own, rather than the excerpted clips from the portland morning television show.
you have condensed a lot of knowledge into a few minutes. extremely useful videos.
1) numbers
2) increase and decrease, little or big
3) emotional (reach for heart region)
4) groups and division (cuff hands)
5) coming together
6) okay
7) you me and we
6 is Emblems, not just Okay.

I learned more from this video than 3 years of experimenting on TH-cam. I need to practice this... thank you
Wow! That is great to hear. You are so welcome!
The old lady sounds like her mind has been blown
Haha it's really cute :) She's so excited about it, really genuinely interested :)
Mine too! :)
Acts like her mind has been blown*
Yeah, she partied hard in the 70's

Same with me...
Vanessa is a pro, I've got to put this stuff to good use.
She totally killed it!!! I want to talk like her! :O
Me too !!!
To be frank, I have been using none. This skill has had tremendous impact on my speaking style.
As a new presenter this information gives me great direction and encouragement to use my hands where I would otherwise not. Thanks! I'll be back for more instruction.

Great video! spot on. l 'm a school teacher and l can relate to what you're saying there.! Keep it up lady!
1:43 "oh wow!"
3:20 Oh! Yeah!
Takeaway: Great video! Hand gestures helps one emphasize certain points and strengthen one’s public speaking for sure.
I saw Vanessa Ted talk yesterday and been obsessed ever since! She's been teaching me soooo much
wondeful tips, you are so geneours to share them. thank you so much!
Never thought that gestures have so much to convey and make our speech more meaningful. Thanks
Can't believe this video has already been 6 years old, this is so helpful and informative. Thank you Vanessa !

I have to give a self-introduction speech at a conference next week. Thank you so more for these amazing tips !! I truly will be using them.

I realize how hand gestures can ease tension and gets the audience attention. Very valuable tips.
This is an amazingly insightful video. The first impression you get is being delivered by an expert
Excellent video and I was just mesmerized by her hand gestures!
Thank you!
Great Video.
Tapping into all of people’s senses you possibly can, will impact your ability to influence them.

Thank you for the powerful and detailed explanation. You are really awesome. I love your blogs quick and to the point.
this actually makes sense! amazing.
I love this woman!!! I learn so much.
This is brilliant - hand gestures that actually are natural and support the words, instead of distracting from what is being said. Thank you!

Gestures hold attention but nothing beats good gestures that match like these. Awesome content
Thank you! I'm so glad it was helpful!
I always feel like I've learned a wealth of knowledge from all of your interviews. Thank you for helping us be more charismatic, I really appreciate it!
Thank you, Vanessa, for these powerful hand gestures. I have been using these gestures without realizing their power. Now, I can use them intentionally😊
Yes! 🙌🏻 This is awesome!
Freemasonic non-verbal communication gesturing is being taught to the public as 'powerful'. No surprise. Tv Programming at it's best! THANKS! :)
Yes, and the devil horns and pyramid seems to be the favorite for both TV and U-tube representing the worship of satan and money.
This is great advice. I just wish the blonde would stop interrupting with her acknowledgements so much. It's very distracting to me.
yeah my brain is bleeding . ''yeah,right,right,yeah''
I just think her intervention is kind of appropriate :)
You know - highlight the importance of what the guest speaker is trying to say.
@@SmeMaHu it's appropriate but she does it say too often and slows it down
II agree, It slows the flow of the conversation and the learning.
Jesus I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought her side comments of acknowledgement was too much. Because she kept interrupting her I felt like Vanessa felt more rushed to try and finish her points and statements before being abruptly interrupted again 😂
Fantastic Talk Venessa- so impressive- your hand gestures are congruent to what you speak-
I cannot do this...Males use fewer hand gestures compared to their counterparts....not sure why?

Thank you! Your videos are priceless for me!
I’m using those fantastic hand gestures, incredible influence to people, these really matters
I am so glad I happened upon this channel. I am in the talent industry and always need to learn new and easier ways to improve my skills. When the next audition comes, I have better tools to ensure booking more work. Why was I never taught this??? Thank you 😊

So helpful! I find myself naturally doing the heart gesture, and now I know why it feels so good. :) Thank you for the thoughtful tips.
Love it! I want to send it to my realtor friend so she can connect people with their perfect homes!
Thank you for sharing this video. Teaching others to do better is the most beautiful gift you can do for us.
I talk with my hands a lot, this will really help me hone in on it what exactly to do with those hands during my talks and videos! Just finished your Udemy course, you are awesome! No jazz hands 😂
Can't wait to revise my written speeches to include the appropriate gestures. Very useful, thx!
Wonderful presentation. Thanks.
So glad you enjoyed this one!
Great Information.. I bought the course but still feel like I should pay for this video alone.
I knew i was lacking in the hand gesture department, this is just what I needed 👌
Excellent video!!! As a leader, as a person pursing public speaking, and charismatic person.... this is a phenomenal video that I would share to people wanting to learn about body language.
I have an important meeting coming up, and this is extremely helpful!
It went really well and I made sure my hands were not hidden behind my hands.
That was very good! And much better than many other videos I've watched!!
👍🏻💪🏻🙏🏻
I always wondered why I can't draw people to me with conversations even tough I'm an interesting person. Been searching for a while now and boom I just found out why. Very good video miss Vanessa and very helpful.
You are amazing they should teach these things in high school and/or College 👍
Very good, I wish I could memorize all the hand gestures
Simple and beautiful. Very well explained
Yeah Vanessa it would be an undoubtedly impressive and effective conversation which could help us to connect with others easily during conversation if we start using our hand gestures during Conversation.
Pakistanis, Italians, Arabs are very expressive in the ways they talk and use a lot of hand gestures naturally
loool yup..
jhaanta
We need to now different cultural customs.
And I think maybe that's why you instantly grow to like them so much because it realllllllly feels so passionate when they talk. Good thing they do this :)
