Speed Reading Training
Motion Reading® is a technique with which knowledge can be acquired extremely quickly.
- Basic Training: Faster reading and successful learning.
You can quickly absorb essential information from texts.
You keep everything important.
Your productivity, performance and mood will increase.
Your ability to concentrate will improve. - Advanced Training: You deepen all Motion Reading® techniques. You deepen all efficiency strategies. You get much deeper into mnemonics. You remove obstacles to learning.
You are developing an extremely useful ability: We decouple your inner time from your outer time. You learn how to stretch your time and therefore never again have the feeling of being under pressure while reading and learning. - Master Training: You learn to put yourself in a flow state in seconds and enjoy deceleration and stress reduction while improving your reading and learning performance.
You create your personal memory palace; this is a powerful mnemonic technique known since ancient times.
