👋 I’m Hamish, an embodied communication coach.

I help high-performing professionals radically upgrade their communication skills with advanced acting techniques that fit seamlessly into the workplace.

“Hamish is a natural teacher! He has an amazing way to bring out the best in the people he is working with. His professionalism, knowledge, care and sense of fun is contagious. I can highly recommend him.”

– Kate Laurence (Founder and Director, Head Held High)

Is your communication costing you?

Ask yourself these questions.

👉 Are you an okay communicator who knows they can be better?
👉 Are you frustrated by your inability to make an impact?
👉 Are miscommunications and misunderstandings holding you back?

It’s normal to feel a bit stuck.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably a high-performing professional.

You work in a fast-paced, competitive environment.

You know your stuff, and you’ve probably had great success.

But you know that levelling up your communication would give you a competitive edge.

Getting unstuck.

Communication isn’t just the words you say.

Having the right words doesn’t cut it anymore.

You know that non-verbal signals, emotional states, and tone of voice contribute to communication.

We use our whole body to communicate. It’s not just the words we say!

The hard part is getting all of those pieces working together.

If you’re like most people, you probably have unconscious emotional or behavioural habits or “blocks” that prevent you from communicating clearly and effectively.

So, why does most communication training start with the words?

There’s a problem with most communication or “emotional intelligence” training.

If you’ve had to sit through most workplace communication training, you probably already know this.

❌ It’s theoretical, not practical
❌ It’s focused on language, not behaviour
❌ It’s not engaging
❌ Doesn’t address emotions
❌ Limited opportunities to practice
❌ Lack of practical application
❌ Ignores the body
❌ And it’s usually boring!

Communication is a skill. And like any skill, it takes time and repetition to get right.

Let’s stop trying old and ineffective methods.

It’s time to radically upgrade your communication skills.

Advanced Communication Training: The ACT Methodology

Train like an actor.

Professional actors train their bodies to communicate effectively.

Think of your favourite actors.

What makes them so compelling to watch?

They’re versatile, authentic, and dynamic storytellers.

When you break it down, the best actors share similar qualities:

👉 Flexible and influential voices.
👉 Dynamic and compelling physical presence.
👉 Emotional range and sensitivity.
👉 They can inhabit any quality or characteristic.

This doesn’t happen by accident.

Professional actors go through rigorous technical training in their craft.

They become experts at communicating using their whole body.

So, to be an effective communicator, why not learn from the best?

These aren’t soft skills; these are real skills.

Effective communication is conscious communication.

My coaching flips communication training on its head and starts with practical tools to elevate your physical communication systems.

Learn the simple, repeatable, and reliable techniques professional actors employ to show up consistently and professionally.

Are you ready to have…

👉 A flexible and influential voice. In conversations or public speaking, well-trained voices communicate ideas effectively.

👉 Dynamic and compelling physical presence. Deeply understand how your body language influences those around you.

👉 Emotional range and sensitivity. Access, use, and regulate your inner emotional states on demand and have deep empathy for the emotions of others.

👉 An ability to inhabit any characteristic. Charisma, assertiveness, vulnerability, or confidence. Quickly foster any desired quality on demand.

Make it look effortless.

We'll use body-focused exercises that help you to recognise, access, and train your physical and emotional communication systems.

✅ Authentic and assertive communication
✅ Eliminate bad habits
✅ Improved self-awareness

✅ Deeper understanding of others
✅ Instantly regulate your emotions
✅ It’s physical training, not intellectual

✅ Unleash confidence, charisma, and presence
✅ Enhanced non-verbal communication
✅ Stay calm, reduce stress, and be in control under pressure

Your coaching package.

Here’s what working with me looks like.

👉 Coaching Calls: 1:1 60-minute online coaching sessions.

👉 Support & Access: Email & voice message support between sessions.

👉 12-Week Programme: Weekly calls to embed, refine, and build key skills.

This isn’t for everyone.

❌ If you’re not ready to put in the work. The techniques and tools taught in our sessions are not always quick fixes or magic solutions. They require a commitment to practice to achieve results.

❌ If you need help writing speeches. I don’t start with the words. My coaching flips communication training on its head and starts with your physical and emotional systems. If you’re looking for this kind of support, other teachers will be better suited.

❌ If you’re looking for therapy or counselling. While you’ll likely receive positive benefits from our work together, if you're experiencing significant emotional or psychological distress, I recommend seeking the help of a qualified mental health professional.

Don’t work with me.

I’m serious.

Consider these alternatives first, as they’re cheaper and easier:

👉 Research communication skills on YouTube.
👉 Ask a friend or your colleagues for feedback on your communication.
👉 Go to therapy.
👉 Do nothing.

These are cheaper and less hassle than teaching people to change.

If you’ve exhausted these, then yes, maybe you should book a call.

“I felt well-prepared and confident because of Hamish’s coaching.”
