Conversation Camp
>> Check out event reviews. <<
We want to give you the Super Power of Conversational Mastery. Being able to engage strangers in good conversation is a life skill. You will become more attractive to the opposite sex, get promoted at work and leave people wanting more. We will re-build your communication habits to leave you smoother, funnier and more socially adept.
In today’s fast-paced world you just don’t get a chance to make a second impression. You need to be able to put across your personality with style and charm. Rarely is the most technically proficient person the one who scores the job or the hottie. It’s the person who’s savvy at communicating.
In a survey of hiring managers 90% admitted hiring people who are not the most qualified candidate on paper. One such hiring manager said, "I go with the person who just gives me a better feeling. I have to be around this person everyday. I want to like them."
In an unscientific survey of attractive people we know, everyone has said they have dated someone who is ‘not that attractive’. They did this because the other person was engaging. We keep hearing things such as, "We just seemed to connect." or "He made me laugh."
That is what you will learn at Conversation Camp - being likable, connecting with others and using a sense of humor. We want people to be drawn to you.
You will not be able to find the ideas presented at Conversation Camp anywhere else. They are techniques based on natural observations and 20 years of trial and error by Wayne Elise. They are field tested and many are surprisingly counter intuitive.
In today’s internet society it is now possible for a person to go about their daily life without talking to another person. Yet being social is more important than ever. In a specialized society no single person can survive without the help of others. The new power player is the one who has the ability to gain the assistance of others. By learning the conversational mastery presented in the camp you will have gain this power.
"Being your real self - your best self, with strangers who you want to develop a profitable relationship with, can actually be difficult. These are unusual situations that goof most people up. There are rules for creating interesting dialogue with strangers that we are not taught in school. Those rules are what I teach at Conversation Camp."
- Wayne ‘Juggler’ Elise
Conversation Camp is an intimate two-day event taught by either Wayne "Juggler" Elise or Charisma Arts’ lead European instructor Harry.
About the instructors:
Wayne was the host of the UK, Channel Four network television program "Seduction School." His writing on inter-personal dynamics have been featured in Esquire, Blender and Psychology Today magazines. His workshops have been written about in the New York Times. He is a contributing author and character in the New York Times’ best selling book, "The Game" by Neil Strauss. He is the CEO of Charisma Arts, the foremost company teaching high-level interaction skills worldwide. Wayne is also a humble student of life who prides himself on his ability to connect with all people by using the techniques we teach here at Charisma Arts.
It was good to see Juggler again. He was simply a funny, masterful conversationalist."
- Neil Strauss, from "The Game"
UK based Harry is Charisma Arts’ highest rated instructor. He is also the lead instructor for the European area. That means he trains all the other instructors there. "I have learned a lot of things from Harry myself," says Wayne. "He has a type of magic which we all should be trying to steal."
"Harry was just awesome. It’s impossible not to look up to him and how gifted he is in socializing and connecting with people. I could tell he was really passionate about helping me move forward and improve. He was so much more than just an instructor or teacher for me that weekend… he was a mentor and a friend. I’m really glad I had him as my teacher."
