A bit of blurb... Rooted in the principles developed and pioneered by Sanford Meisner. This approach that enables deeper contact with yourself and those you work with by teaching you to listen and respond, truthfully and instinctively in the moment may give you a different understanding of what acting is . Be prepared to be surprised. During these introductory sessions, you will learn some of the technique’s foundation training exercises to develop skills in being able to be more fully present and to respond fluidly and intuitively in the moment in your performance practise. A bit about the teacher...
