A blend of experiential learning and personal reflection
This workshop is open to performers, artists, and anyone interested in exploring the intersections of mind, body, and creativity.
Take this opportunity to step into a dedicated space for growth, exploration, and connection—a chance to deepen your understanding of your craft and yourself.
No prior experience is required, only a willingness to engage and experiment.
Breathing and Relaxation
We begin with practices that reconnect you to your breath—a foundational element of presence and vitality. Learn techniques to release tension, ground your energy, and cultivate a state of calm alertness. Through mindful breathing and guided relaxation, you will enhance your ability to access emotional and physical ease, both in your daily life and in your creative pursuits.
Voice and Voice Training
Your voice is a powerful tool for expression and connection. This part of the workshop focuses on exploring the full range and capacity of your voice, enhancing its clarity, resonance, and emotional expressiveness. Through practical exercises, you will learn techniques to strengthen vocal control, improve projection, and align your voice with your creative intentions. Whether you are performing, presenting, or simply communicating, this training will help you use your voice more effectively and confidently.
Presence
Presence is the cornerstone of meaningful connection, whether on stage, in front of the camera, or in personal interactions. Through simple yet profound exercises, you will develop greater self-awareness and the ability to stay fully engaged in the present moment. This portion of the workshop focuses on sharpening your ability to listen, respond, and adapt with authenticity.
Creative Movement
Explore the interplay between body and imagination. Guided improvisation and structured movement exercises will help you discover new ways to express emotion and intention through physicality. This segment is not about achieving perfection but rather unlocking a deeper connection to your unique movement vocabulary and expanding your creative range.
A deep dive into a specific acting technique
The workshop culminates in an exploration of a specific acting methodology (e.g., Sense Memory, Affective Memory, Public Solitude…). We will focus on its key principles and how they can be applied practically to enrich your performance. Through hands-on exercises and discussion, you will gain insights into how this technique can serve as a bridge between your personal experiences and your creative expression.
