    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    'Stimulating and intelligent' Yoshi Oida


    Seventy percent of everyday conversation is conveyed through body
    language, twenty percent is the voice and only ten percent is the
    meaning of the words. In The Body Speaks, expert RADA trainer
    Lorna Marshall, shows how to recognise and lose unwanted physical
    inhibitions that our background, education or family have taught us and
    presents a fundamental re-thinking of our relationship to the body and
    its role in performance.

    Good performers - be they trapeze artists, Shakespearean actors,
    Butoh dancers or film stars - are able to fully reach their audience
    and engage with them because they have learnt to use their bodies to
    its best effect. Through a series of practical exercises, Lorna
    Marshall encourages us to unleash our potential, discover new
    possibility for the body and express ourselves more clearly. This new
    edition has been fully revised to include the latest thinking on the
    subject and more exercises particularly for performers in TV and film.
