My main goal for students is to first get an understanding of their current skill set, personality, fears and goals and then tailor each session to that individual. Over the years, I have learned many different techniques and have a large tool kit when it comes to the craft of performance and acting (whether it is for stage or screen) and get great joy out of handing over tools to others to play with and see what works for them to get to where they want to be.
Performing by nature can be extremely vulnerable and scary and actually requires a willingness to get things “wrong”. Therefore, I like to help nurture one’s confidence around being comfortable with making mistakes and being bold to help assist the student across all potentials within the realm of performance; auditions, being in the rehearsal room, being on stage or on set.
My aim is to equip all of my students with more confidence and craft when it comes to their voice, their physicality, their ability to listen and react authentically, their text work, their intentions and almost most importantly, their willingness to play.
