Rated 2 out of 5 by RJL786 from Ok, not great. Too much fluff talk. I have been studying body language for work for about a year. Definitely the lowest-ranked class/instructional item I have viewed. Way too much fluff and the instructor seems very new to the topic, scratching the basics 101 that you could get from a simple book in half the invested time. Web site is simply a sales job.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Brunoez from Great Content, Way Too Long Understanding the non-verbal aspect of communication is critical to truly understanding people. In order to help learners become more familiar with this sometimes mysterious subject, TGC/Wondrium now offers three different courses: "Your Public Persona" by Mark Leary, "Non-Verbal Communication" by Mark Frank, and "The Power of Body Language" by Vanessa Van Edwards. Of the three, "The Power of Body Language" is by far the best offering. In contrast to the other two courses, Ms. Edwards does a fantastic job of bringing the material to life by using a live audience with tons of examples. You will definitely leave this course with 8 or 10 practical tips which will help you improve your presentation to the world. The only drawback of Ms. Edwards' course is the length--15 1/2 hours. Due to the use of a live audience, there is a lot of repetition and inefficient use of the time. My wish would be for TGC to bring Ms. Edwards back into the studio to reshoot her course in a 6 hour format.

Rated 4 out of 5 by DaGeek from Lots of good info, VERY corporate oriented Lots of good information on micro expressions and body language. When I selected this to watch I did not realize it was aimed so strongly at the corporate world. I have experience a few too many corporate trainings, so I had to work past that. Also she was working with a live audience during her presentation. I found myself in reality TV mode, bothered by some of the members and liking others, all which distracted somewhat from the presentation. One reviewer found her science dubious, but having some background in psychology much of it was right on, IMHO. Presenter was good. You will learn some things, but just realize that it is aimed at networking, sales and the corporate world.

Rated 2 out of 5 by satchel from Some dubious science, some good features too I take issue with some of the statements claiming the information is grounded in science. That is not true regarding the power stance, nor in the complex mechanics of lie detection. For more specifics on how those topics are addressed directly and the associated research, see: " The Complete Guide to Absolutely Everything: Adventures in Math and Science" by Adam Rutherford and Hannah Fry. That said, there are enough valuable tips and insights into non-verbal behavior that make the overall series of value. So I recommend the series but also be cautious about accepting some of the claims as " scientific."

Rated 2 out of 5 by Aloha from I did not like it The lecturer taught me the importance of body language, which I intuitively knew before. However, it did not teach me how to read other people’s body language. I read other books on the subject afterwards, and learned a lot more than what I learned from this lecture.

Rated 2 out of 5 by A Life Long Learner from Poor Pseudoscience Psychology - not recommended I feel most of this course is a poor romp through pseudoscience psychology with very little peer reviewed science credibility to what the presenter is saying. The booklet shows a bunch of studies however the course shows lots of poor science. On saying that it is done in an engaging way and I watched it. I cringed quite a lot with the poor pseudoscience psychology though so please be very careful not take most of this course too seriously or it could damage your business image and performance. On the good side the lie detection is done reasonably well so that is worth watching hence I gave it two stars not one.
