English isnt my main language, i'll try to explain the best i can. the techniques where: easy/smooth start , hyperarticulation, cancelation, pause , pause + smooth start , volunteer stutter (stuttering on purpose). Part of the training was taking turns and simply reading some text while applying a certain technique. We talked a lot about our emotions before ,while and after the stutter .We talked about what happens when we stuttered or blocked to our body and the tics accompanied with them.We trained a lot with removing all the tics and anchoring our body when talking , so only moving our mouth. It's been 6 years and i dont remember in detail why but its mostly to gain complete control and not allow our body to take control over us .We categorised every consonant to the part of the mouth used to say it and practised it separatly while focusing on that part of mouth . I could go in detail about each technique but i propably wouldnt explain it well enough .Each technique is used for different needs e.g.:control flow , control start , desensitization ,slow/fast speech .A large part of the training was desentization itself hence being in a group with other stutterers and gaining confidense .We were assigned tasks as well where we had to go to a place (e.g.:store) and use a certain technique and filled a paper before (how we expect things to go ,what our goal is) and after(reviewed the outcome). These were the main things we did.
