Workshops & Ensemble Training

My workshops bring actors together to explore the connection between body, language, and imagination through collective practice. Working in an ensemble creates a shared energy, a space to listen, respond, and take creative risks together.

Each workshop is shaped around the group’s interests and level of experience. Sessions draw on movement, voice, and text work to develop physical awareness, presence, and clarity in storytelling.

Work may include:

  • Fundamental Movement / Pure Movement
    Exploring alignment, coordination, and responsiveness through breath, sensation, and impulse. The work develops awareness, strength, and rhythm, releasing habitual tension and expanding physical range. It builds a foundation for expressive clarity, focus, and imaginative play, connecting body and intention in performance.

  • Neutral Mask
    Cultivating openness and readiness, an attentive state where movement is free of habit and excess. As an acting exercise, it helps actors recognise physical habits in a visceral way and develop greater clarity, economy, and truth in their movement and response, allowing impulse to lead with freedom and presence.

  • Animal Studies
    Exploring transformation through observation and embodiment. The work encourages physical listening to instinct and form, helping actors discover new rhythms and ways of being that open pathways into character and presence.

  • Greek Tragedy and Classical Work
    Engaging with the physical and vocal life of heightened text. Actors explore choral odes, messenger speeches, and chorus movement, finding depth and precision through rhythm, imagery, and shared breath. The focus is on collective presence, clarity of thought, and the relationship between language, space, and ensemble.

  • Text and Embodiment
    Working from the body toward language. Actors explore how rhythm, intention, and thought find expression through movement and sound, where meaning is discovered in action.

Workshops can be designed for theatre schools, ensembles, companies, or independent actors who want to deepen their craft, reconnect with body and voice, and explore how classical and contemporary texts come alive through movement and presence.
