Interpreting Facial Expressions and Body Language
Did you ever wish you could know what someone is thinking or feeling?
And believe that actions do actually speak louder than words?
How you sit, stand, walk, your postures, facial expressions, gestures, movements and eye-contact say more than your actual words or the tonality of your voice?

The ability to code and decode body language is critical in reading people’s thoughts and feelings and sending out the right signals.
