Hi Charlton, I am NOT one of the expert, but you might be interested in looking at the ROPANA website http://www.ropana.de/english_information.htm The author is Roland Pauli, a tennis coach with 30 year experience, and he has also developed a stuttering therapy based on his experience as a coach and his experience as a heavy stutterer who has recovered to a point of being able to speak fluently in most situations. His idea is to work on extending the fluent periods and ignoring the stuttering (inspired by his coaching methods) rather than producing fluent speech with fluency shaping or working on stuttered speech. I will probably blog about Ropana on my blog this week.
