I have overcome my stuttering
I have overcome my stuttering
I took the stuttering training with Del Ferro 40 years ago. Before the training, I had followed several speech therapies; without result. I stuttered very badly and we had almost given up that I would ever get rid of it. I have not only become free from stuttering, but it has also shaped me into a persevering person who never gives up.
I have a position in aviation where I have a lot of contact with people. A position I could never have had if I had still stuttered. I heartily recommend Del Ferro because it is straightforward and the only therapy that has been proven to help people get rid of stuttering and keep it away.

I am immensely glad someone tipped me off about Del Ferro
I am immensely glad someone tipped me off about Del Ferro
Because of lung covid, I had inefficient breathing. I was very short of breath and therefore had a standard heart rate above 130. In April, I started using the Del Ferro method and the results have been tremendous! By breathing differently, the shortness of breath has disappeared and my normal heart rate has returned. This has given me more energy and my recovery is clearly going in the right direction.
The exercises require discipline, but because results were so quick, it was quite easy. I would recommend it to anyone!

I did the stuttering therapy in 2022. Del Ferro promised that I would experience on the first day that I can speak without stuttering, but due to the many years of speech therapy and regular therapy, I was skeptical. The first day was of course exciting. But yes: with this method I could speak fluently right away!
I have built up so much self-confidence that my life looks completely different now. My dream was to become the owner of a gym, but because of the stuttering I didn’t think I was suitable for that. Now that I no longer stutter, I have been the owner of my own gym since September 2024!

I have done things in my career that I would never have dared to do otherwise
I stuttered almost my entire childhood and was often bothered by it. I had various tricks to avoid words that I could not say. I had a lot of speech therapy, but they told me that I had to learn to live with the stuttering. I did not want this, after which I ended up at Del Ferro.
I was immediately sold by the great professional approach. You do need to have good discipline and the right attitude, but I got rid of my stuttering. I am now also head of a department of a large organization.

After 46 years of stuttering, the course opened my eyes
I attended the 5-day course in early July, followed by 3 follow-up days. We had a fun group and were guided by very knowledgeable and enthusiastic trainers! After 46 years of stuttering, the course opened my eyes and since then speaking has been much better.
I am not there yet, but by doing the daily exercises and applying the technique, I am making big steps every week. They also emphasise well that there is only one person who can change stuttering and that is yourself. As far as I am concerned, every person who stutters should go to Del Ferro!

Had the first lesson at Del Ferro last week. The training was very accessible and enjoyable. I thought beforehand that I would not be able to master the techniques quickly, but thanks to the explanation/training, I succeeded immediately.

It was one of the best choices I ever made in my life
It was one of the best choices I ever made in my life
Before the course my son Daniel could not say a word without stuttering (literally). On day two of the five day training he could say full sentences without a stutter. Now, half a year later, his speech is still improving.
He also faithfully does his breathing exercises. This takes him about 20 minutes a day, but it is worth it!

Business Coach
Believe in what you do or don't do it at alle
What lies within can be brought to the surface. But too often we settle for mediocrity and the hope of better times. Real leadership does not start with hierarchy, but with the realisation that everything arises from the quality you yourself add to every dialogue and interaction.
Collaboration is not just about knowledge, but about the art of connection and mobilization. For over 20 years, Erik has been helping people and organisations to unlock their hidden potential and set it in motion, with the aim of personal or collective change and renewal.

Unlike ‘talk therapy’ or traditional speech therapy, the Del Ferro Method is primarily a physical training program. We focus on the physiological source of breathing and speech: the diaphragm.
By specifically training this muscle with our unique breathing technique, you immediately resolve the physical blockages associated with stuttering or the respiratory dysregulation caused by hyperventilation. This practical method empowers you to regain full control over your body.
Our expertise is built on four key pillars:
Stuttering Therapy: Overcoming stuttering and public speaking anxiety for good.
Breathing Therapy: Overcoming hyperventilation, burnout, and other breathing-related issues.
Corporate Training: Stress reduction, vitality, and absenteeism prevention for organizations.
(Elite) Sports: Optimizing oxygen uptake, conditioning, and focus to achieve peak performance.
Since 1978, our method has empowered over 13,000 students and professionals to achieve their goals.
The method is renowned for immediate results. From day one, all participants experience complete fluency and a sense of calm in their speech or breathing.
You first learn to consciously use the technique as a tool under pressure. The ultimate goal is for it to become second nature. After the training, you work on phasing out the conscious use of the technique until fluent speech and relaxed breathing become automatic and natural once again – whether at work, during sports, or in social settings.
