Art of Awareness Morning + Evening in-studio Classes starting in February 2022

These are NOT month-to-month classes. Both offerings require multiple month commitments.

The classes are a full body approach to acting. Integrating your awareness of breath, body + voice with scene work. You will begin with investigating your spontaneous + controlled behaviours. Then make the bridge to relationships and connecting to the outside world and others. An organic and empowering process to ignite or re-ignite your connection to your intuition. You will begin to make space in your body to truly trust yourself and your choices.

You are your instrument.

Remember the thrill of living in the moment while diving deep and following through...allowing one moment to inform the next.

Spontaneous movement, voice + choice
