Teaching
PHILOSOPHY
As performers, our tools of expression are movement, intention, and sound.
1) Movement (our mind-bodies, objects, color, light)
2) Intention (acting, play, words, meaning, will)
3) Sound (music, voice, vibration)
LESSONS
Drawing from my varied background, I teach each discipline individually, as well as how they interconnect.
Lessons with me can look and feel like:
1) An Alexander Technique or Reiki session (focusing on movement or bodywork)
2) An Acting Coaching (focusing on intention, audition prep, etc.)
3) A Voice Lesson (focusing on vocal technique, classical, musical theater, pop/rock repertoire and styles)
4) A Combination Lesson - (focusing on what you need using all of the above)
Something’s not working in your performance, but you don’t know what? Curious how your body relates to your singing or acting, or visa versa? Looking for something that honors the connection of mind and body to performance, that is outside of the traditional division of voice, acting, and body/work training?
I found in my personal journey as a performer that I needed all of this information at various times to help unlock the next level of my performance, and I am happy to share what I have discovered with the next generation. We can work in the way that best suits your needs.
