Course outline:

This masterclass equips individuals with impactful performance-based skills used by many of the world’s greatest actors. Participants will learn advanced techniques to build on stage presence, authenticity and emotional connection. Together we will take a deep dive into behaviours and how these can affect the story we are trying to convey and ultimately the impact we are trying to make.

Participants will tap into the same tools and psychologies actors use to transform their performance—whether it’s controlling nerves, commanding silence or creating a physical and vocal presence that demands attention. Working with our team of professional actors, they will put into practice the skills they have learned and receive in the moment feedback.
