Pitch With Power -Public Speaking Masterclass For Business Owners

Date - 9th January 2026

Location - Woolwich 

Time - 10:00am - 14:30pm

If you want your business to grow, you need to speak in a way that makes people stop, listen and believe in what you do. Your voice is your influence. Your story is your advantage. Your presence is your power.

This masterclass is where you unlock all three.

Join Elite Performance Coach and former Premier League footballer Michael Duberry, alongside Academy of Success founder Dionne Ruddock, for a high energy, practical and transformational workshop designed to elevate the way you pitch, present and speak about your business.

Across 4.5 focused hours, you’ll learn how to control your body language, strengthen your voice, sharpen your message and deliver your pitch with clarity and confidence. This isn’t theory. This is hands on, real time coaching that pushes you forward, helps you break old habits and shows you exactly how to step into the room with authority.

Whether you're speaking to customers, investors, partners or your community, this masterclass gives you the tools to communicate in a way that inspires trust and moves people to action.

​

You’ll walk away with:

• A powerful 60 second pitch you are proud to deliver
• Confident body language that shows strength and presence
• A simple storytelling structure that connects emotionally
• Control over your tone, pace and pauses
• The mindset to handle nerves and pressure
• Personal feedback from two experienced coaches

This is for the everyday business owner, the early stage founder, the ambitious entrepreneur who knows they need their voice to grow their business. If you're ready to level up and speak with real impact, this is your moment.
